I have just made a major re-organization & reformatting of the article, including a couple new pictures from other articles.

Talk:Chang Apana

message: Did he prefer his whip over a gun, or was he not authorized for firearms?  (Were there other Chinese on the force who were conventionally armed?)
In the case of Charlie Chan, "Chinese-Hawaiian" suggests mixed racial genetics, but Apana sounds like either he was solely Chinese-descended or his mixed genetic ancestry is being glossed over. Do we know?
:Apana was ethnically Chinese, but born in the independant Kingdom of Hawaii (long before Hawaii became a U.S. territory). He was a Hawaiian subject of Chinese descent, i.e., a Chinese-Hawaiian.  71.67.104.152 (talk) 19:09, 28 May 2012 (UTC)

Aside from being notable as the inspiration for the Charlie Chan stories, the real life exploits that lead Briggers to him were notable, at least in Hawaii.  David Stannard in his book "Honor Killing: How the Infamous 'Massie Affair' Transformed Hawai`i" notes that by 1931 was exceptional among the caliber of the Honolulu Police Department in that day (at p. 57).

message: The statement about Titicut Follies being an example of Cinema Verite is untrue. It can be regarded as direct cinema, not cinema verite, although Wiseman didn't like either of the classifications. (unsigned)
:Can anyone provide a source in accord with the above? On one hand, Wikipedia's articles on Cinéma vérité and Direct Cinema, make it seem to me like Titicut Follies is a lot like its a perfect example of direct cinema, and NOT cinéma vérité, simply because it does not include any narration whatsoever, and seems to rely "on an agreement among the filmmaker, subjects, and audience to act as if the presence of the camera does not (substantially) alter the recorded event... the filmmaker aims to be a fly-on-the-wall capturing life as it unfolds." However, looking around the web it does seem that this film "is widely considered to be a masterpiece of the cinéma vérité form" even if it shouldn't be.--Brian Z 05:08, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Why not full title?

message: From Twentieth-Century Romance and Historical Writers (1982, 1990)
This overtitle of the 18 books contains no redundancy. "Life" is not the equivalency of "biography," but refers to the complex of vital forces which are manifest in and through Manuel, but are ultimately independent of him and endure after he passes from the scene. The same is true of Jurgen, another imposing "life," which is developed in volume six, the most widely read of all the fictions. "Biography" is a term Cabell employs in the conventional sense of a literary ordering of events and details. In other words, collectively the set of 18 reveals not only the landmarks, legends, and interpretations of Manuel's story, fascinating episodes in and of themselves, but goes beyond the racounter's art to uncover those consuming and creative forces which work through and upon the main character. Through a comprehensive grasp of these interwoven perspectives and impulses (the biography), a reader is to become eventually equipped to deal with the larger concept, the "life."

Then ghost reverted me, saying in his Edit Summary something like (this is paraphrased from memory) "if you have a problem with something in the article then you should just flag the specific section, not the whole article."
I responded by un-reverting it, in this version:

But now ghost's version is gone entirely from the history.
How did that happen?
I mean, since no actual content was lost, I suppose that it doesn't really matter much in this case (except that it makes it look like I'm talking to myself, and there are already plenty of people here who suspect I'm crazy without that confirmation).

After restoring Stein to his historic place, I found no reason to keep the table showing Bütschlian taxonomy -- which was, after all, just a transitional step on the way to Kahl's system (which would be too long to include).
