New page

Change proposal to [[Dramawiki:Korean Personal Names Romanization Preferences]].

I would like to propose the following changes to this document, based on how it's been followed.
{| class="wikitable"

! Letter !! RR !! Dramawiki !! Reason for change

|Follow RR, exceptions:
*김 is always Kim
*강 is always Kang (for example [[Kang Boo Ja]] and [[Choi Kang Hee]])
*if followed by ᅲ use Kyu (for example [[Kim Yong Kyu]] and [[Lee Sun Kyun]])
*if followed by ᅧ use Kyu (for example [[Kyun Mi Ri]] and [[Kim Kyung Hee]])
| Following what has been entered for Kang and Kyu
|-

* 일 becomes il ([[Jung Il Woo]])
* 이 becomes yi in all other cases ([[So Yi Hyun]] and [[Yoon So Yi]])
* i for everything else ([[Min Do Hee]])
| Il is nowhere written as Yil

 It might be a good idea to clean these up and provide consistency:
 * When page URL uses Seo (without redirects):
 ** Make sure Seo is used as preferred name
 * When page URL uses Suh (without redirects):
 ** Correctly romanize the name according to RR rules
-** Make sure Suh is used as preferred name
+** Move any alternate spelling that is not RR nor URL version to '''Also known as:'''
 |}
 I'd also like to remove the McR column from the table. For me personally it was confusing and every time I looked up a letter, I had to check if I was referring to the correct column. If we're basing the rules on RR, McR isn't relevant so why clutter the document with information that shouldn't be used.
