This article looks like something copied from a magazine, or more likely, a website. There's no source attributed, so it looks like plagary to me. Mihoshi 17:38, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I wrote it. The photograph, if you will check the record attached, is from an old book that is long past the copyright time limit. P0M 06:11, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Sorry. Didn't mean to accuse you of anything, I just wasn't thinking. Mihoshi 03:58, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Should the description of the photograph be moved to the photograph's page, since the details don't add anything to the understanding of the stove beyond what's already displayed in the caption? -- Avocado 23:52, Apr 21, 2005 (UTC)

I gave the details about the room, the window, the unexpected European, etc., because otherwise (unless you already have a fairly good idea of what to expect to see) I think it would be hard to tell what the kang is. For one thing, I really didn't expect a kang to be so large and well finished. P0M 01:40, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Ah. I kind of thought the caption to the image itself made it sufficiently clear. Maybe the stuff about the window and about the book the image is from could be moved either to the image page or to a reference list at the bottom of the article? It seems like that might be cleaner, but that's just my opinion. Avocado 01:47, Apr 22, 2005 (UTC)

P0M: It's always good to add a source for the factual information, as it allows verification and source credibility assessment. — David Remahl 00:11, 29 July 2005 (UTC)
