I'm editing the article the Knights of Round table(KRT) in Korean, because only few people have interest in this story. I saw that so many links in the KRT in Korean, and I was starting to edit this article.
First of all, I', editing these two articles, King Constantine and sir Hector. Those two men are related to middle age of England(Britain), and especially, King Constantine has interesting story about his native. He may be effected from Saint Constantine.
About sir Hector, he is the stepfather of King Arthur. Sir Hector is the character of Britain story, so there is not much historical factors.

The one thing I think interesting is similar names, Damnonia, Dumnonia and Damnonii. Dumnonia is the name of place. Wikipedia article says;
"Dumnonia is the Latinised name for the Brythonic kingdom in Sub-Roman Britain between the late 4th and late 8th centuries, in what is now the more westerly parts of South West England."
"Damnonia, land of the Damnonii, a Celtic tribe of Roman Britain in what today is southern Scotland."
"The Dumnonii or Dumnones were a British tribe who inhabited Dumnonia, the area now known as Devon and Cornwall."
It was so tough to translate the article because of these names. I'm trying to look for a history journal for middle age of England.

And here is my question. Is it okay to translate an English article to Korean article without any extra knowledge? In my case, I can just translate it directly without knowledge, but I want to get more knowledge about history of another country. What do you think?
