Chosin Reservoir → Lake Changjin – The lake's actual name is Lake Changjin, as it is situated on the Changjin River. If the lake itself is worth an article separate from the Battle of Chosin Reservoir, then the article should use the actual name of the lake, not the name adopted for the battle. 203.30.3.171 (talk) 11:13, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support and retarget Chosin Reservoir to Battle of Chosin Reservoir as a primary redirect, with a hatnote to the lake. Mdewman6 (talk) 18:22, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Focus on the lake, not the battle

There is already a separate article on the Battle of Chosin Reservoir. This article is about the lake itself. While the battle is a significant event in the history of the lake, most details of the battle are not relevant to this article on the lake. 203.30.3.171 (talk) 10:40, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Etymology section questionable

I'm pretty sure the whole etymology section is wrong. First off, there's no references. Secondly, the following sentence is particularly problematic: "That is because when the hanja of characters used for the word "Changjin" read out as Japanese kanji, it reads as Nagatsu mizuumi." Chosin is actually the on'yomi reading of the hanja characters:

長: [1]
津: [2]

I don't think many japanese people would see "長津" and use the kun'yomi reading for the compound. atanamir (talk) 05:48, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It is even worded speculatively; definitely a case of one editor's original conclusions. I am removing it immediately. Yue🌙 22:48, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
