Talk:Busan

I support moving "Busan" to "Pusan"

I agree with Reenem. The Revised Romanization has been adopted by South Korean government and thus can regulate the use of English only within S. Korea. The rest of the world still use "Pusan". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.248.23.250 (talk) 11:19, 3 December 2012 (UTC)

So [{Kaliningrad]] stays Königsberg in other languages just because change isn't necessary? --88.64.181.143 (talk) 22:15, 30 September 2017 (UTC)

Busan → PusanPusan – I understand that there has been some inconclusive discussion about how to title this page (I myself went looking for "Pusan" today and when I was redirected to "Busan" I was certain that this was an error!). According to WP:COMMONNAME we should title our articles by the name that the subject is most commonly known by, even in preference to a subject's official name, so long as that name is the one used in published reliable sources-- do not the majority of published reliable English sources use "Pusan"? To the extent that this is so, should we not move this article to that namespace? To support this proposed move, which any editor is welcome to do, please edit this page and scroll to the bottom and add a new line of text by typing * '''Support''' I support this proposal and here are my reasons. ~~~~. To oppose, do the same thing but type "Oppose" rather than "Support". Thank you. A loose necktie (talk) 17:53, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

Oppose: You are right, WP:COMMONNAME states that articles should be named based on what the majority of reliable sources refer to them as, and the majority of English sources refer to the city as "Busan", not "Pusan". So this article should reflect that. ɴᴋᴏɴ21 ❯❯❯ talk 21:53, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

Oppose move. It doesn't look like Pusan's the common name anymore. Let's keep it at the status quo. O.N.R. ^(talk) 04:12, 6 December 2020 (UTC)

Oppose - Most of the shipping resources use Busan. Fob.schools (talk) 13:36, 9 December 2020 (UTC)

• Oppose, ngrams suggests that use of "Pusan" has declined significantly for the past 20 years and has recently been overtaken by "Busan". BegbertBiggs (talk) 01:38, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

Clutter

In the first half of the article the right side of the page is looking really cluttered for me. Can someone find a way to reorganize or prune it? toobigtokale (talk) 11:00, 16 August 2023 (UTC)

Hi, Most of the pictures and one box belong to history and and names section, but the chart and city view belong to Geography and climate, I honestly cannot rearrange them in a good way.

Side note: Isn't that time to make an archive of this talk page?PAper GOL (talk) 20:16, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

That population box was in the wrong place I moved it to the demographics section.PAper GOL (talk) 20:22, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

Main image

I don't like the main image; the air pollution obscures everything but the bridge. Can we replace it with something else? grapesurgeon (talk) 06:16, 8 July 2026 (UTC)

Agreed. I suggest: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Busan_City_Haeundae_District_(01).jpg IndrasBet (talk) 19:12, 18 September 2026 (UTC)

Oh yea much better, thanks. I'll change it to that; if anyone disagrees please speak up grapesurgeon (talk) 19:18, 18 September 2026 (UTC)
