Thanks to Skyfiler for copying this campaignbox over to zhwiki here. A copious amount of cross references would come in very handy.

The Battle of Nanchang(南昌会战 ) links to 1927 Nanchang Uprising(南昌起义), and should not be included in Second Sino-Japanese War.--Skyfiler 19:17, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

I see you've already changed it. I added a couple of redirects, so they shouldn't confuse anyone now. Incidentally, can someone verify the order of the battles here? --Miborovsky 22:38, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

changed the order... Battle of Nanchang followes Battle of Wuhan...--Skyfiler 17:56, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

OK Battle of Changde done...

Battle of Beiping-Tianjin and Battle of Shanggao are now blue! 9 to go!

changed Battle of Nanchang the 11th Division should be 11th ArmyAsiaticus 11:39, 29 April 2006 (UTC) I have a pretty complete oob for both sides and more details on the battle to add.

I think the manchurian incident is appropriate here since the Mukden Incident article spends over half the space talking about what happened after the initial 9.18 incident. This includes the invasion of the northeastern provinces and the resulting lytton report. BlueShirts 21:44, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Manchurian Incident vs Mukden Incident, both are as far as I am aware equally valid names for the same event; I certainly don't care whether the Campaignbox says "Manchuria" or "Mukden." But the event in question is not the invasion and occupation of Manchuria; that is not the focus nor the title of the linked article. LordAmeth 22:00, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Looks like we gotta have Japanese invasion of Manchuria then. -- Миборовский 22:05, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure about that, since the mukden incident article covers the subsequent invasion. Unless we want to include another assortment of incidents (like the wanbaoshan incident) leading up to the main invasion of manchuria. BlueShirts 22:11, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Well, I prefer Mukden. This is what I think if you put Manchuria:

1. It would not match most of the format in the box. If you want to put Machuria, then you would have to remove Nenjiang Bridge. Even so, it would still be awkward because the individual section in the campaign box focus on the specific one campaign mostly.

2. In Asia, it is referred as the specific conflict of Mukden Incident that led to the entire Manchurian Incident. If in this way, you should not change it.

In European's mind, Mukden Incident and the Manchuria Incident is the exact same thing. If in this way, there's no need for you to change it.

3. If you put Manchuria, that would be in a general sense. In that way, you might as well just intergrate Marco Polo Bridge, Beiping-Tianjin, Chahar and Shanghai 1937 into "China" (1937 支那事変).

Replacing Mukden to Manchuria is almost the same thing as replacing Marco Polo Bridge to China Incident. Exaggerated, but that's my impression.

4. Kind of repeating 1.), but 満州事変 (Manchuria) is not just one campaign, but a series of invasion and events that branched out vastly. 柳条湖事件 (Mukden) is more appropriate to put in the campaign box.

If you guys insisted on changing it to "Manchuria", I suggest to put it in this format:

Manchuria (Mukden - Liaoling-Jiling - Helongjiang - Jinzhou-Harbin)

Then rename, rewrite and extend the Mukden Incident article according to the Chinese wiki version.

I think it's more appropriate to put sihang warehouse immediately after battle of shanghai, since they belong to the same battle. BlueShirts 22:37, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
