Thank you for your feedback. What I will do is to put a brief introduction on what it means to "Chinese Brazilians" and briefly cover the history of Chinese immigration, demographics and current life. I will definitely start with History and then remaining Chinese Brazilians. Twu21 (talk) 21:19, 4 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

The plans you have made for your article are very interesting and I'm sure they will create a great well rounded article once you make the planned changes. It is important to remember when discussing an entire group of people that you avoid making generalizations about experiences. Good luck with your changes!Knit buffalo (talk) 13:48, 5 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hello again! You have been busy working on this page since I was last here! You have an impressive amount of content here. I have made some small grammatical changes to your page. The tone is more of an argumentative essay not an encyclopedia, at times it sounds a bit biasied towards the Chinese Brazilians. You could remedity this quite easily, just by removing certain words and reworking some sentences. Once you make these changes your page would be quite exceptional. Good luck with your changes!

While Chinese people arrived in Brazil earlier than most people know and other facts are accurate, one cannot accurately defend the claims that have been presented before, some examples:

1. Chinese labor did not replace slave labor in Brazil not even close to it (while there were debates on that possibility and many others ie. indians, japanese, europeans etc, it was never implemented and in reality the workers that replaced the slaves were mostly, well, Brazilian former slaves, since they did not disappear after slavery ended); the main reason for labor shortages was also not the abolition of slavery, but the abolition of the transatlantic slave trade

2. The first Chinese people in the country reportedly arrived in 1814, but immigration during the 19th century was tiny and official immigration started only in 1900.

3. The shortages of labor that existed were compensated by European, Arab and Japanese immigrants, mostly; the Chinese population that we now have in the country is mostly descended of far later immigrant flows, starting in the 1900s, but actually only picking up steam after WW2.2804:14D:5C70:970E:6D94:BBF9:454B:6B71 (talk) 05:40, 26 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Corrections, context and more precision

The text was not putting presenting brazilian history correctly, which is a problem when one argues the main factor bringing in chinese immigrants was the pull factor rather than push factors in China. Also, it focused too much on the debate on how to replace slave labor which doesn't make too much sense as the answer to that ended up NOT being chinese labor; most chinese arrived in Brazil after 1900, and I tried to at least mention that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2804:14D:5C70:970E:6D94:BBF9:454B:6B71 (talk) 05:19, 26 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
