[edit] Japanese names for Chinese styles
Apparently a lot of people have got these mixed up (and thus should not be entering them themselves in the articles), but here they are:
Baguazhang = Hakkeshou Piguaquan = Hikaken Bajiquan = Hakkyokuken
I have fixed the mistakes that were there already, but hopefully we can avoid any more...

[edit] Ambiguiity/misinformation
This article needs major revision if it's to provide a clear picture of Baji. Right now, it's far too unfocused. For instance, it claims "there are more than 20 different forms..." What branch it it talking about? The lineage from Liu Yun Chiao only has 3 or 4 (depending on what you count as a "form"). Other Brnaches have 8, others 10. This needs clarification. Also comments about the nature of the stances ("higher than longfist"?) are misleading at best (uninformed at worst). Like I said, lots of reworking would help this article, which DOES contain a lot of great information. Too ambiguous, not enough clariffication.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.173.151.4 (talk • contribs)
