[edit] Sources and POV

An edit on 05:55, 18 April 2005 deleted significant content and created a new chronology of events. The edit also changed the initial actor from the PRC to the ROC. The cited reason was: "Two different versions of the Strait Crisis existed, PRC version and ROC version." I am unaware of the version of events advanced by that edit, and neither of the article's cited sources contain that chronology. The result of the edit is also counterintuitive, as one sentence states that the ROC moved soldiers to Jinmen, and the next states that they shelled it. Further, the resulting version does not include the original timeline at all. Asymptopia 00:22, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

There were no objections, so I removed the sentence that altered the chronology of events from that listed in the sources. Asymptopia 17:56, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
