"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. Aran heru nar 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".Aran heru nar 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.Aran heru nar 04:51, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Warning

Per Please avoid using abusive edit summaries as per Misplaced Pages:Civility and Misplaced Pages:No personal attacks. Thanks and happy editing.Aran heru nar 04:53, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

The warning is clearly described and the diff is given. Please do not troll on my talk page. Feel free to do so in your sandbox; in the meantime, I have more articles to edit. Thank you. Aran heru nar 04:20, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Han Chinese

I would suggest you to refrain from editing article Han Chinese because you seem to have a very, very basic understanding of what Han Chinese really is, e.g. this editand this edit. You also seem to misunderstand Misplaced Pages:POV, seen in these edits: and . You can see that some of these paragraphs are absolutely not POV (some are along the borders, but should not be removed completely). For example, this paragraph: "This also derives from another Chinese dynasty, the Tang dynasty". How is it POV to say that "Tang people" derives from the "Tang dynasty"? That is perfectly accurate and true. I would suggest you to put more effort into learning some basic information before you make these controversial edits and call other editors "silly". See WP:NOT a soapbox and WP:NOT a publisher of original thought. Aran heru nar 05:26, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Dispution

I must warn you again not to edit during dispution. Even if you are correct it does not justify your actions, and in this case I'm pretty sure you aren't. Editing while in dispution does not help either side. I suggest you to discuss in the talk page instead of deleting large chunks of useful information just because you think they're "weird".
