The name of this article has been chosen to be
Tsushima Island. This was after lengthy debates and an approval vote. Please consult the
archive 4 for this discussion.
This page has archives. Sections older than 60 days may be automatically archived by Lowercase sigmabot III.
Demographics and culture
・The population of the islands is about 41,000, consisting mainly of ethnic Japanese, with minority
Filipino and
Korean populations.
There is also a small Christian community, consisting mainly of ethnic Koreans and Filipinos.Other signs of Korean influence include the Korean method of castle construction on
Kaneda Castle.
There is such a description. However, I live in North Kyushu, but do not know these facts. Start a Korean and Filipino population and current nationality, the actual situation of religion, the source of information about these information which are in Tsushima. Because it is a too careless description, I delete it.
・Professor Cho Kyeung-dal of Chiba University suggests that the local culture has intermingled Japanese and Korean traditions over time, due in part to Tsushima's proximity to Korea. For example, Korean songs such as "
Arirang" (or "Ariran") and "Chingu" are popular on Tsushima Island. This has led to the creation of unique festivals not found elsewhere in Japan, such as the Arirang Festival (established in
1964) and the Chingu Music Festival in August.
The local dialect, Tsushima-ben, contains several words with origins in the Korean language, most notably from the
Gyeongsang dialect. Many signs on the islands are written in Korean for the benefit of tourists.
This is only a hypothesis of only one scholar.
It is not obtained a great number of people's consent. Because this opinion is not known at all.These studies are still unripe things. On this account you should not describe it.
In the future, it may make sense to create
Tsushima Island dispute. This article could accommodate new additions and outline the dispute's chronology. Will this mitigate a small problem, or will it make things worse?
Is the controversy here as significant and widely supported as the Senkaku Islands controversy? Or, a different way of putting it is, is there so much more information that it could not comfortably fit here? Right now, we've got only 3 fairly short paragraphs, so it seems to fit well on this page.

@Qwyrxian -- Your analysis overlooks that this POV issue is not validated by any government.
As background: Eirikr's edit
here caught my attention. It caused me to take a closer look at
Tsushima Island#Territorial claims and disputes. I understand why the revert was reasonable; however, the edit summary of the reverted diff was also persuasive reasonable.
Please review the first paragraph of
WP:NPOV#Due and undue weight. It explains, "the views of tiny minorities should not be included at all, except perhaps in a 'see also" to an article about those specific views." This next step follows the pattern at
Japan-Korea disputes#Geographic disputes
A closer look at the cited sources will show that this is not ROK policy. In an article which is primarily about the island, undue weight is given to disputes. --

Ah, I see; you're arguing that by including it here, it's giving undue weight to the small minority of Koreans that "claim" the islands. In that case, if we did move it to another article, we probably shouldn't call it a "dispute", but rather something like
Korean claims to Tsushima Island. Because, as you say, there is something compelling about the edit summary, in that neither Japan nor Korea actually, as a whole, dispute the ownership.
But wait. I just looked at the article, and I realized that the section itself is actually mislabeled. Only the first paragraph actually talks about an ownership dispute; the latter two just seem to be generic anti-Korean racism. That is, the Japanese nationalist groups weren't talking about ownership of the island, they were saying they wanted all of the Koreans to get out, period. So maybe what we really need to do is to change that section title to something like "Incidents"; then each of these is actually being given somewhat due weight--they're things that happened on the Island that got press.

The following 3 paragraphs were removed from the article. In each, there are questions which need to be discussed.
In March 2005, the
Masan, South Korea, municipal assembly designated June 19 as "Daemado Day," (Daemado is the Korean pronunciation of the
Chinese characters of Tsushima (對馬島)) and claimed the island as South Korean territory, stating that the island had been annexed by the Korean
Joseon Dynasty on that date in 1419.[1] In 2008, 50 members of the parliament in South Korea proposed making another demand for Tsushima.[2] A public opinion poll in Korea showed that 50.6% of the general populace agreed with the proposal.[3]
A Japanese conservative group called the
Japan Conference (日本会議, Nippon Kaigi), which is tight with the
Association of Shinto Shrines and Korea-based
Unification Church's International Federation for Victory over Communism, has protested the purchase of land on Tsushima by Koreans, especially a fishing lodge operated by Koreans adjacent to the local
Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force base.
Eriko Yamatani, a member of the
House of Councillors from the
Liberal Democratic Party, has called for special legislation to restrict land sales to foreigners on the island and to implement measures to boost the local economy without having to depend heavily on South Korean tourists. Koreans own about 0.007 percent of the land on Tsushima.[1]
On several occasions in 2009, far-right-wing Japanese nationalists (calling themselves
Zaitokukai) verbally attacked Korean visitors to Tsushima Island. Upon arrival at the port and on the streets of the island, the Koreans were greeted by the nationalists with chants of "go home" and "
kimchis" or "Chosen-jin" ("Chosen" is the Japanese word for
Korean peninsula).[4]
Arguably, the the municipal holiday and the opinion poll in paragraph 1 are not notable in themselves -- seeWP:Notability. Also, the "incidents" described in paragraphs 2 and 3 are not notable.
Well, notability isn't really the right word (that just refers to whether or not a subject is important enough for a stand-alone article), but I understand your point. I would personally say the first should (and is) covered in the dispute article. The second seems to be a fleeting news story, not worthy of inclusion (
WP:UNDUE). The third one seems like it is worth inclusion, because it seems to describe a pattern/long-term problem...but then I actually looked at the source. Nothing in that source is about Tsushima. It actually talks about anti-North Korean sentiment, and the specific events that it gives occurred in Tokyo. Thus, we can't include that info at all w/o a reliable source.

abCite error: The named reference search.japantimes.co.jp was invoked but never defined (see the
help page).
The merge tag was in place for almost a year with no discussion. I've removed it, as the articles have grown independently of one another, with less overlap as time goes on.

Ordinance
Article 1 (Purpose): This regulation's purpose is to declare Daemado is a territory of the Republic of Korea and to secure the sovereignty of the Daemado.
Are you kidding? It says nothing about a naming dispute at all. It just says that Tsushima is called "Daemado" in Korea. Please provide a reliable source that support "there is an actual naming dispute".――

I thought you admitted that the source does not say about a naming dispute. What do you mean "It only says Korea which calls the islands Daemado. So this isn't about a naming dispute." Does this statement say "the source says there is a naming dispute"? If you cannot explain properly in English, please do not edit English Wikipedia.
Also, The source does not support "The Changwon City in South Korea promoting the appellation Daemado." As I said above, from the source, what we can say is that Tsushima is called "Daemado" in South Korea.
That said, how about adding an infobox like this instead of the long sentence?
What do you mean "If you cannot explain properly in English, please do not edit English Wikipedia"? Maybe you want to use my own words to attack me. I think you (and me) need to try a
WP:GOODFAITH about little different opinion.
This is an assignment for my linguistic class to find an article and give a feedback. I found that this article says people in Changwon city in Korea call this island 'Daemado' but most people in Korea call this island as 'Daemado'. An article referenced in this article seems too old. It is from Junganilbo in 2002, over 10 years. Other than these, most of them looks neutral and reliable. --
