Talk:Taiwanese Americans

message: The article states "During Japanese rule (1895-1945), Taiwanese were barred from politics and administration..."  I'm Taiwanese, and I'm fairly sure my grandfather worked as a government official during the Japanese era.  It seems like there should have been other low-level Taiwanese government employees as well.  --JC  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.168.151.38 (talk) 01:11, 31 August 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Barred from 'administration' during Japanese era?  Really? 

message: In a recent attempt to add false data on the Asian American article page, an IP editor had made a change not supported by the reference claiming that there are 1 million Taiwanese Americans. This lead me to this article, which provided a possible non-reliable source stating that there are 600K Taiwanese Americans. Therefore, I added the 2007 ACS data, with a link to the reference (the same used on the Asian American article), while not removing the pre-established reference. --RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 23:45, 20 June 2011 (UTC)

message: i am an american born Chinese. i applied for taiwanese nationality and got it. i never lived in tw. my father is a Chinese american who also got taiwanese nationality back in the 1960s when he went there to study. i know personally a filipino guy who has Chinese ancestry that successfully got the taiwanese nationality. however, none of us have the id card, because you need to go through the immigration proces to get it, whereas with the nationality, you dont need to.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by ASD955668FYDS (talk • contribs) 16:00, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

message: There was no explanation for renaming this article from Taiwanese Americans to Taiwanese in America. All the similar-subject articles that I spot-checked followed the Taiwanese Americans format, for example Hakka Americans, Albanian Americans, Nigerian Americans. So as a consistent style issue this move seems ill-conceived. Also one would expect a discussion, as happened with the previous quite minor rename (see above). -- M.boli (talk) 17:22, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Renaming article with no explanation and no consensus. 

message: I suggest a new section Community and identity which would include the following sections underneath it:
* First generation immigrates and later 
* Media
* Organizations
* Connection to politics of Taiwan
The disputed few sentences, currently subject of a lede-section edit war, would logically belong in the Community and identity section instead. Even if they are to be kept in the article they don't belong in the lede. Also there should be a citation. -- M.boli (talk) 19:21, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Propose new section: '''Community and identy''' 

message: Whys this not mentioned? The article talks about a ban a ban on mainland emigration, but makes no mention of the ban of movement on Taiwan. Through most of the Chiang Kai Shek years, Taiwanese were not allowed to leave TW, as TW was under martial law. That's a major reason why you probably wouldn't have seen any Taiwanese overseas throughout the 50s, 60s, and 70s. As far as I know, Taiwanese weren't even allowed to take vacations abroad.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by T43534534 (talk • contribs) 15:21, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
