Does anyone else agree that we shoudl revert to the last edit of this page? IT seems a lot of content was removed. Was there a reason for this? And the "Welcome to hainan" line is un-encyclopaedic, IMHO.--Mishac 02:11, 17 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- Agreed. --Menchi 03:10, 17 Feb 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Empty article
some horrible person has emptied the entire article and replaced it with a japanese flag! what is the meaning of this?
[edit] South China Sea Islands
The section on Geography notes that Hainan contains not only Hainan Island but also 200 islands of the South China Sea.
I think it needs to be made clear here that this is the claim made by the PRC, which is contested by a number of nations. I don't think that at this present stage the PRC claim is internationally recognised. --Anon
- Done. I just dragged the 2nd part of the sentence ("in the PRC territory") to be the 1st part of the sentence. Is that clearer? --Menchi 04:45, 24 Mar 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Meilan Airport?
I don't think it exists anymore. I went to Hainan (my relatives live there)a few years ago and there was a new airport built to replace the old one. I don't know if they still call it Meilan, I'm sure they changed it. The airport's south of Haikou in the countryside.
The airport is still called Meilan. It is in the countryside towards the east.Bathrobe 06:20, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Flag of Hainan
Is this a real historical, regional or separatist flag of Hainan? -- Himasaram 02:53, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
According to crwflags.com, this is a war flag used by the Li and Miao ethnic groups of Hainan from 1943 to 1949. -- ran (talk) 15:53, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] travel-hainan.com links
I am removing all the links to travel-hainan.com, because they are links to a commercial website with absolutely no relevant information available, unless you pay $30 to download a PDF file from them.
And in fact the links appear to be inserted in odd places, as if they are trying to build keyword strength with Google; this looks like spam to me.
[edit] Yi?
Don't some Yi people also live in Hainan? Badagnani 10:04, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
