"NPOV"
I do not see how my edit in article Han Chinese has been POV. I simply included the fact that minority tribes were around China, which has been an undisputed part of the article for a long time until you removed it. I have explained my edit in my edit summary. See also Misplaced Pages:POV for an explanation of NPOV. Aranherunar 03:30, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
- That's just ridiculous. Would you bother to take some time reading basic Chinese history at all? The term begins in the Han Dynasty. There wasn't "Mongolia", "Russia" and "Korea" at that time. "Han Chinese" is not only a modern term, it is also a historic one. At that time the "Han Chinese" didn't refer to themselves as "Chinese", or "中国人" - they refer to themselves as "Han people", to distinguish from the minority tribes around China, e.g. in the Song dynasty, the Jurchens, the Mongols etc. When the Mongols overran the Song Dynasty, they classified the people into four levels: The Mongols, the Tibetans, the Han, and the "Southerners".Aranherunar 04:46, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, that's because the term is still in use. "It was during the Qin Dynasty and the Han Dynasty that the various tribes of China began to feel that they belonged to the same ethnic group". Surely, this is about the past? Please do not edit the disputed part when the discussion is still going on.Aranherunar 04:51, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
