Talk:William Kwai-sun Chow

Reliable source on William Chow
William Chow mentioned in A Chronological History of the Martial Arts and Combative Sports 1940-now Article, Electronic Journals of Martial Arts and Sciences

"...between 1942 and 1953, Mitose promoted six students to 1-dan. Among these was William K.S. Chow, who actually trained under Mitose’s student Thomas Young. In 1944, Chow started his own class at the Nuuanu YMCA, and in 1949, Chow began calling his methods "kenpo karate." Chow continued teaching kenpo karate (though not always by that name) until his death in 1987, and his better-known students included Adrianao Emperado, Ed Parker, Bill Chun, Ralph Castro, and much later, Sam Kuoha."

Breen article nonsense
This was a poorly referenced article with many factual inaccuracies. And read this if you think Cerio was more than a two week study of Chow. nuff said User5802 05:58, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

William Kwai Sun Chow to William Kwai-sun Chow
I go more into detail why i changed it: Moving to Wikipedia standards. His name is a prime example modern romanization of chinese and korean names are very important. His full name is William Kwai Sun Chow Hoon, which makes it impossible to see what name is what. His western given/first name is William, his asian given/first name is Kwaisun/Kwai-sun, and his double last/family/surname is Chow-Hoon. Only the spelling William Kwai-sun Chow-Hoon clearly shows which names belong together. His name is actually a prime example how good modern romanizations are. And "Ah Sun" means "Brother Sun".
