Hong Kong To-do:
edit purge
  • Clean up all MTR station pages. They are literally all over the place. Two model pages are Tsing Yi Station and Sheung Shui Station. They each describe a feature special to the station, Station layout, exit, and connections, as well as neighbouring stations and the station "box".
    • We will also need plenty of updated pictures (e.g. removing all KCR-related images except those on the KCR article). Check that all pages have basically the same language structure as Tsing Yi Station and Sheung Shui Station. Links to location maps are good too. (Should also perform these checks on Chinese Wikipedia.)
  • Clean-up pages that link with TVB, especially its series pages.

What are the Chinese characters of “Po Liu Chau”? --Menchi 17:53 16 Jul 2003 (UTC)

I was told that a small Japanese naval base located on the island during WWII conducted suicidal shipment attack . Can someone confirm this? 大将军, 都督中外诸军事 (talk) 09:44, 1 Feb 2004 (UTC)

A rumour. A cave near Sok Kwu wan is called "Kamikaze Cave". It may have been used to store munitions during the war, but no one really knows. 210.17.201.174 02:36, 11 January 2007 (UTC) Alan. 10 Jan 2006.

It is documented, unfortunately I loaned the history to a friend here on Lamma Island. A suicidal attack was made on Admiral Harcourt's squadron when it steamed in to Victoria Harbour after the Japanese surrender by a small boat or boats from Lamma Island. I will try to track down the reference. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 219.77.96.67 (talk) 02:40, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
