The scope of this article is much wider that just the Thirteen Hongs, which are sometimes confused with the Chinese firms in this article. I think a move to the name Canton System of Trade would be more appropriate and it has support in the Cambridge History of China.--Amban 14:49, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
- There is an existing Canton System article which covers trading outside 13 Hongs in Guangzhou/Canton. One step up, there is Old China Trade, which covers almost all European and all of China. Both of which are quite underdeveloped and could use alot more contents, pics, references etc. Benjwong 00:56, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
