I mean List of Korean names is a mess. And that one is alphabetical. But it has working SL link, so it must be better, right? Honestly the whole thing was clearly just an attempt by John Fairbairn to push the names used in GoGoD. Wikipedia contributors and other databases have enough sense not to use those names.
But hey, standard is good, right? Korean names on SL are so standarized now because of his effort.
The insinuation is wrong and entirely uncalled for, you can convince yourself by a look into the page history.
