thread_title: Map?

message: The article gives "pescadores" as the Portugese word for "fishermen"; I know that that is true in Spanish as well. It makes enough sense that a colonial power would have named an island like this, but I just wanted to make sure we know that it's Portugal and not Spain. --BDD 17:41, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: A cursory glance at an History book tells you where were the Portuguese and the Castillian back in the early 1500ies: Taiwan was very much in the Portuguese zone. 82.155.75.102 22:43, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: A cursory glance would miss out on the Philippines but, yes, it's from the Portuguese. — LlywelynII 16:28, 25 July 2014 (UTC)

message: The blue box is ugly and not needed, especially since there is already a county infobox occupying the same space. Please do not add it without consensus.--Jiang 02:37, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd suggest modifying the county infobox itself so that the pronunciation information could be presented inline there, rather than breaking up the lead sentence. cab 11:24, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

The Dutch were driven out from the Pescadores by Ming chinese forces in the 1620's, several Dutch raids were defeated and Dutch sailors taken as POWs.

thread_title:  Sino-dutch war in the pescadores in the 1620's 

message: There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Kaohsiung which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you.  —RMCD bot 20:59, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Move discussion in progress

message: There's always the link through for people who are genuinely confused as to what the Republic of China is (they should learn already), but I've got no problem with glossing it as Taiwan... once. We shouldn't have both names through the entire article. Do it one time as "Republic of China (Taiwan)" in the lead or infobox and then leave the others as Taiwan or Republic of China as appropriate. — LlywelynII 16:28, 25 July 2014 (UTC)

thread_title: Sources for future article expansion

message: The question is I was wondering, with Penghu (aka Pescadores) still part of the ROC, is Penghu claimed by the PRC? We know the constitution of the PRC states that "Taiwan is part of the sacred territory of the People's Republic of China. It is the inviolable duty of all Chinese people, including our compatriots in Taiwan, to accomplish the great task of reunifying the motherland." and it possibly extends to Penghu.

thread_title:  Penghu in the PRC 

message: There is a discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Penghu Islands regarding the article Penghu Islands recently split from this one.  Kanguole 13:54, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Deletion discussion 

message: The Chinese version of this page says that the main island is called 澎湖本島, i.e., "Penghu Island" or "Penghu Main Island", but the English page indicates that the island is called "Magong Island" or "Magong City/Huxi Township" (which is kind of nonsensical). Seems likely that "Penghu Island" is the correct name, but it's hard to find anything authoritative for this. Can anyone find and add a source clarifying what each island, especially the big one, is called? 114.44.208.19 (talk) 05:50, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
