move[edit]

I recommend we move this to Gentlemen's Agreement of 1907 and have this page redirect to Gentlemen's agreement, which more people are likely to be looking for. Jun-Dai 05:54, 21 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This makes sense. Having two pages: Gentlemen's Agreement and Gentlemen's agreement is unnecessarily confusing. My only question is what year to use in the reference. The agreement was not a formal treaty but a series of understandings that were developed in 1907 and 1908. So, is it the Gentlemen's Agreement of 1907, the Gentlemen's Agreement of 1908, or the Gentlemen's Agreement of 1907-1908? Is there consensus about how historians refer to it?

Personally, if I heard Gentlemen's Agreement of 1908 I would think of the Canadian version of the same, the Hayashi-Lemieux 'Gentlemen's Agreement' (https://pier21.ca/research/immigration-history/gentlemens-agreement-1908) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.73.108.194 (talk) 19:42, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]


In a chapter from Strangers from a Different Shore: The History of Asian Americans by Ronald Takaki (1989), I see this called the "1908 Gentlemen's Agreement" (see p. 27). This might be one piece of evidence in favor of calling it the Gentlemen's Agreement of 1908. Rgrilloavila (talk) 17:37, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Vandals were here?[edit]

Has this article had some extraneous material inserted recently? Who do you report this to to get it cleaned up?

Merge two "History" sections[edit]

Having two sections for "History" is redundant. They should be merged into one section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nwalters512 (talkcontribs) 01:27, 27 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

8.5 Mw[edit]

Whatever this happens to mean, it should be linked to a defining article. 99.247.1.157 (talk) 03:24, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
