# Talk:Kowloon Walled City


### Kowloon Walled City
Am I missing it or does the article go into no detail about demolition after the mention in the lead? ꧁Zanahary꧂ 08:10, 16 December 2024 (UTC)

It's mainly in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kowloon_Walled_City#Current_status_as_park. But it is missing details about the demolition itself and how long that took. Wyll Ravengard (talk) 08:36, 17 April 2025 (UTC)
It's in the section named "Eviction_and_demolition". _dk (talk) 21:55, 17 April 2025 (UTC)

This is a young adult fiction which is used as a serious source for many of the statements within this article.
I'm not sure what is usually considered appropriate but personally I find that to be an untrustworthy source. 193.62.205.62 (talk) 12:48, 12 August 2025 (UTC)

Do you have a title? Wyll Ravengard (talk) 02:05, 22 September 2025 (UTC)

Hi, I recently made an edit stating the triads had rule over KWC from the 1940s to the 1990s, but it was reverted on account of the source. After reading the source in detail, I could find no mention of the triad rule starting in the 1950s, and from what I can gather, they actually started sometime in the late 40s, moving with the refugees escaping the last four years of the CCW. Although there was a mass movement by BHK to exterminate the triads in the 1960s and 1970s, despite their influence waning in KWC, and living conditions improving through the 1980s with things such as the yamen and the youth center, they were still present up until the very end as far as I can tell through extensive research. Can we reach a consensus on the dates? TheIconic'Qwertyuiop' (talk) 09:34, 5 October 2025 (UTC)

I have no objections to altering it, but you will need reliable sources to support your information. Your own research would fail original research unless that research is simply the reading of other sources. Canterbury Tail talk 14:02, 5 October 2025 (UTC)
