Arguments in favour

  • &Y  Support Korean Wikipedia Users want to open this project. This project is very useful. --Albamhandae 00:23, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
  • &Y  Support 위키뉴스 한국어판을 열더라도 기존의 네티즌참여형 뉴스 사이트들이 이미 활발히 운영중이라 기여 수는 적을 것 같습니다. 그러나 한국어 위키백과에 이따금 올라오는 시사성이 강한 글들을 흡수할 수 있을 겁니다.(translation: even if opening korean wikinews, the number of articles may be small because there are netizen-participating news sites which are very active. but opening korean wikinews can absorb some articles which are nearer to news rather than encyclopedia.)--Ilovesabbath 06:39, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
