First, I apologize if I sent wrong email list.

I'd like to report wrong/defective translations has been being created in
Korean on MetaWiki and StrategyWiki. I suspect these poor translations is
made by PauloHelene and his socks and/or IPs. (Some of IPs are used in Ajou
University <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ajou_University>. Also you can see
his various IP address
here<http://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:PauloHelene&action=history>).
They made a lot of bad translations so it is impossible to fix them in short
time.

And he is showing abusive behaivours in Wikitravel Shared. and his request
for translator right in translatewiki.net has been denied. (Archived
requests for translator
rights<http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Project:Translator/Archive/2009/3>
Section
126). Korean Wikipedia also discussed several time
(here<http://ko.wikipedia.org/wiki/%EC%9C%84%ED%82%A4%EB%B0%B1%EA%B3%BC:%EC%82%AC%EB%9E%91%EB%B0%A9/2009%EB%85%84_%EC%A0%9C21%EC%A3%BC#.EB.8F.84.EC.99.80.EC.A3.BC.EC.84.B8.EC.9A.94.>
and
here<http://ko.wikipedia.org/wiki/%EC%9C%84%ED%82%A4%EB%B0%B1%EA%B3%BC:%EC%82%AC%EB%9E%91%EB%B0%A9/2009%EB%85%84_%EC%A0%9C39%EC%A3%BC#PauloHelene_.EA.B4.80.EB.A0.A8_.EB.AC.B8.EC.A0.9C>)
for his poor translations but there is no fundamental solution to prevent
him from editing.

Please take actions to prevent him from abusing. Some advices are also
welcome. Thank you.
