Maybe in the spirit of the UN International Decades and World Day of the World's Indigenous People: 1. How many indigenous people were living on the island of Taiwan when then all of a sudden 2 million military & co under a "generalissimo" decided to retreat to their island on 7 December 1949-1950? 2. And how did these indigenous people feel about this? Doesn't that deserve to be mentioned in this chapter "7. Views on the legality of the KMT takeover of Taiwan"? 3. 9 August is the "International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples" every year, and there're already 3 UN International Decades on Indigenous People; the last one - we are still living in it: 2022–2032.

Recently this page was moved by User:SilverStar54 from Retreat of the government of the Republic of China to Taiwan to "Koumintang's Retreat to Taiwan" (now at Kuomintang's retreat to Taiwan). This was presented as a "minor edit" and the justification was "Make shorter (WP:CONCISE, WP:PRECISE)". This was certainly not a "minor" change! It is shorter, but I'm not sure whether it is more "precise". Changing the emphasis from the state government (ROC) to the political party (Kuomintang) seems potentially controversial. The fact that the new page name contained a misspelling suggests that not much thought went into this move. I think this should have been discussed and I think the page should be moved back to the original title - precisely because it is more precise. Furius ( talk) 18:05, 11 May 2023 (UTC)
