Please be bold and help translate this article!  Operation Kraai (Operation Crow) was a Dutch military offensive against the de facto Republic of Indonesia in December 1948 after negotiations failed. With the advantage of surprise the Dutch managed to capture the Indonesian Republic's temporary capital, Yogyakarta, and seized Indonesian leaders such as de facto Republican President Sukarno. This apparent military success was however followed by guerrilla warfare, while the violation of the Renville Agreement ceasefire diplomatically isolated the Dutch, leading to the Dutch–Indonesian Round Table Conference and recognition of the United States of Indonesia.

LTA GRP reporting
changeHello! Please note that GRP switches his IPs so rapidly that reporting him to WP:VIP would be useless. It can clog up the page which is why there is an abuse filter that prevents this in SRG. It's unfortunate that GRP is still vandalizing since 2005, but User:Antandrus is doing something about it. Cyclonical (talk) 05:00, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- I don't think it is totally useless to report the LTA in WP:VIP. The sooner they are blocked, the better. It is good to know that something is being done about it. Thanks for letting me know. – Cyber.Eyes2005Talk 13:18, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- I think there is a channel in IRC for reporting such users though, but for now I feel like we will just have to deal with him. However reverting his edits is the most fun part lol, its like a competition to see who is the fastest at reverting Cyclonical (talk) 14:27, 6 June 2024 (UTC)

Overlinking
changeHi. I read the article you wrote, India naming dispute, which was very interesting and educational. However I am writing to remind you about overlinking/repeated links. We really do not need to link India nine times, especially when the article is about India's name. By the way I liked the article a lot, so thank you for writing it, great job! ✩ Dream Indigo ✩ 20:51, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you so much, I really appreciate your feedback. I've used three names for the modern state of India in the article: Republic of India, Bharat, and Hindustan, and used the word "India" only for the historic region of India, i.e., the Indus Valley (Pakistan). So, as to avoid confusion, I linked it multiple times and added footnotes. But thank you for informing me about that. I'll see where I can reduce the overlinking. – Cyber.Eyes2005Talk 03:47, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hello :) I removed all those links to India because I believe that you explained it very well and that there was no confusion in the article. Also, I am sorry for the late reply, I forgot to add this page to my watchlist… ✩ Dream Indigo ✩ 23:32, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hi! No worries at all. Thanks for the update and for taking care of those links. )) – Cyber.Eyes2005Talk 23:53, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

Kangzi Emperor
changeHi, this is regarding your revert on Kangxi Emperor. I think your version is too complex. Compared to Quinnly9's version it has many complex sentences. 157.131.67.250 (talk) 21:20, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
- The article is indeed a bit complex, but that is not 'my version'. I simply reverted edits that added unsourced and unreferenced claims. You are free to simplify the article if you like. – Cyber.Eyes2005Talk 21:29, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
- Okay, please verify if this is okay: Special:Diff/9610512. 157.131.67.250 (talk) 21:31, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
- It is indeed simpler than before, though the article still needs work to look more encyclopedic, including copyediting and sourcing. Great job! – Cyber.Eyes2005Talk 20:02, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

Please be bold and help translate this article! Koreans in Micronesia used to form a significant population before World War II, when most of the region was ruled as the South Seas Mandate of the Empire of Japan; for example, they formed 7.3% of the population of Palau in 1943. However, after the area came under the control of the United States as the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, most Koreans returned to their homeland. As of 2013, about seven thousand South Korean expatriates & immigrants and Korean Americans reside in the Marianas (Guam and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands), which have remained under U.S. control, while only around two hundred South Korean expatriates reside in the independent countries of Micronesia.
