Talk:Chinese historiography

message: "Therefore, blaming the ethnic inclusiveness theory..."
Blaming it for what?  This entire section sounds like an angry defense of an unclear idea.    Who is blaming the idea of Zhonghua Minzu for what problem?  That Vietnam, Mongolia, and Korea are independent nation-states?  This is a fact of modern geopolitics, not a problem of Chinese historiography.  What should be discussed here is what different viewpoints exist on the issue of, essentially, how to resolve the historiography of all the overlapping nations that exist within modern (and have existed within ancient) China.
If this paragraph isn't neutralized before long, I will do it myself. Amhaun01 22:32, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: An angry tangent in "ethnic inclusiveness"

message: The name of this article is not apropiated: in the translation to spanish we have opted by Interpretaciones de la historia de China. There is two reasons:
*First: there is only two chinese historian cited here, all others are occidental.
*Second: Science is one, and so one historiography (historians can be clasificated by time, nation, class, ethnics, sex... and even object of study)--Ángel Luis Alfaro 18:22, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

message: Why is this not called Historiography of China, the title seems inconsistent with other historiography articles, is this an error or on purpose? Dysklyver 20:13, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: I see that its title is inconsistent with at least several other such articles (US, UK, etc.). As for the original rationale for the present form of the title, that is a mystery to me. It should be possible to move the article, if there are no objections. Dhtwiki (talk) 23:59, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  I object to any such move if this is the only rationale for it. You claim that the title is inconsistent with other articles about historiography, but that's easily disprovable given the articles entitled Greek historiography, Roman historiography, Ethiopian historiography, Marxist historiography, Humanistic historiography, etc. From what I can tell, there's nothing wrong with the present title and it is completely interchangeable with the alternative title "Historiography of China". --Pericles of AthensTalk 00:13, 22 October 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: ok thats makes sense. Dysklyver 07:33, 22 October 2017 (UTC)

message: Thanks, , for the comment explaining your reasoning in reverting my edits  here. A little duplication may not waste space, but including random items obscures the good stuff. Readers throw up their hands and don't know where to begin. 
WP:Further reading "section of an article contains a bulleted list of a reasonable number of works which a reader may consult for additional and more detailed coverage of the subject of the article. In articles with numerous footnotes, it probably is not obvious which ones are suitable for further reading. The "Further reading" section can help the readers by listing selected titles without worrying about duplications." It goes on: "Preference is normally given to works that cover the whole subject of the article rather than a specific aspect of the subject, and to works whose contents are entirely about the subject of the article, rather than only partly." Further:"Wikipedia is not a catalogue..." 
Here it seems reasonable not to select Fogel & Schneider from the notes; only part Evans is historiography, and Fairbank is linked; Goodman is a great but specialized book review on a topic not mentioned in the article; Kutcher's article is not mainly historiographical and Latourette is not mentioned in the article. 
So if it's OK, I will restore the culled version, which will correct your I'm sure inadvertent addition of "Fairbanks." ch (talk) 06:01, 30 January 2020 (UTC)
