Japanese names for Chinese styles[edit]

Apparently a lot of people have got these mixed up (and thus should not be entering them themselves in the articles), but here they are:

Baguazhang = Hakkeshou Piguaquan = Hikaken Bajiquan = Hakkyokuken

I have fixed the mistakes that were there already, but hopefully we can avoid any more...

Ambiguiity/misinformation[edit]

This article needs major revision if it's to provide a clear picture of Baji. Right now, it's far too unfocused. For instance, it claims "there are more than 20 different forms..." What branch it it talking about? The lineage from Liu Yun Chiao only has 3 or 4 (depending on what you count as a "form"). Other Brnaches have 8, others 10. This needs clarification. Also comments about the nature of the stances ("higher than longfist"?) are misleading at best (uninformed at worst). Like I said, lots of reworking would help this article, which DOES contain a lot of great information. Too ambiguous, not enough clariffication.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.173.151.4 (talk • contribs)

Jingang Bashi[edit]

The Jingang Liu He Ba Shi (Buddha guardian's Six Harmonies Eight Posture) are a jibengong practice that several Baji lineages adopted from the art of Jingang Bashi. They were not a "Baji influence on Jingang", as was previously written. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jonathan.bluestein (talk • contribs) 10:39, 16 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bajiquan → Baji quan – Both to be WP:CONSISTENT with other forms of Chinese boxing (e.g. xingyi quan) and to follow the WP:NCZH policy to space pinyin according to words. SilverStar54 (talk) 21:43, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
