[edit] Victory

The Japanese destroyed more ships but the Chinese managed to achieve their mission of protecting the landing operation. That would be a Japanese tactical victory and a Chinese "strategic" victory, unless this battle had somehow a larger impact on the rest of the war in favor of the Japanese (which is in no way supported by the article as it is now) in which case we'd have a Japanese strategic victory, a Chinese operational victory and a Japanese tactical victory. Nothing in the article supports the box's text of a Chinese tactical victory. So for the sake of consistency I'll reedit it and I'd be grateful if SYSS Mouse could tell me why the article as it is now is correct instead of just reverting it for "vandalism" 82.135.7.211 14:27, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
