I'm looking for the best picture or any informations about the KAF's U-6 (Beaver). It seem that the KAF had 3 aircrafts.But in 1971, during the viet cong's sapper attack at the Pochentong Air Base,at least 1 Beaver was destroyed.In 1972 at leat 1 Beaver was refurbished with a new engine.http://www.khmerairforce.com/AAK-KAF/AVNK-AAK-KAF/Cambodia-Beaver-KAF.JPG
After doing some research, I've learned that in Vietnam a temple is aden as opposed to awat. Would that justify a separate page forden (currently a disambiguation page) to described manners of temples in Vietnam? I know I was surprised to find the other three continental SE Asian countries with Buddhist influence/prominence listed on thewat article but Vietnam absent until I saw the language difference. However, surely there are similarities in the temples, i.e., they were used for one type of religious practice hundreds of years ago and then converted to a new purpose by Theravada/Mahayana monks or they too have reclining/seated Buddha statues and pagoda-like features?
I guess you folks were under the assumption that Vietnam is simply like its Southeast Asian neighbours. First and formost, Vietnamese culture is not Theravada, but rather Mahayana-Confucian. Temples in Vietnam can be called "đền" as you mentioned (however, that term is more for a Confucian alter that is outdoors); colloquially Vietnamese temples are called "chùa"; but formally, are called "tự" (from the classical Chinese: 寺, si).
Vietnamese temple should not be included in this article. However, I think it should be included in a "see also" section. Not even Burma is even though it is culturally more similar to these three countries. Cambodia and Laos were under Siam's cultural sphere in the 1800s and thus they now share a many customs and cultural elements that do not occur in Burma or Vietnam (that is not to say there is none with Burma however, just to a lesser degree). --KaffirLemon (talk)04:24, 4 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
User:Pak21 suggested on26 July 2007 thatSala kan parian be merged into this article. Though a "Sala kan parian" is also a building within a wat, I would rather suggest merging it intoSala (architecture), because a "Sala kan parian" is just a subset of different possible salas. There are for instance:
Sala Rai - multipurpose salas,
Sala Loi - "Floating Sala" like at the front ofWat Suthat - they are a bit raised for the king to watch the swinging ceremony at theSao Ching Cha (contrary toSala Din: "Ground-Level Sala"),
Sala Nam - small pavilon at a khlong to wait for the water-bus,
Support merger. As forSala (architecture),Sala kan parian should indeed be mentioned there, but that article is primarily about architectural styles. It sorely needs a gallery for representative pix of the many types mentioned.Pawyilee (talk)14:35, 23 July 2008 (UTC)'[reply]
Seems like this article has been being disputed since I've tried to edit it for several times in positive reason, like I've written the article and arranged the images in alphabet order, for example Cambodia, Laos, Thailand (the letter "C" must come first then letter "L" and after that is letter "T"). After many hours later, other editor came to undo my work without specific reason or without informing me. Sometimes, they've even tried to reject all of my work or removed my images. Maybe it's caused by some extreme nationalists who consider themselves to be the best editor or just feel proud of their countries.Chanrasmey Miech (talk)14:32, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Seligne, I was wondering why did you delete and modified some of my sentences without informing via edit summaries ? Did I write inaccurately without reflecting reality ?Chanrasmey Miech (talk)16:43, 13 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I take it you are referring to five edits I made at the end of July 2018. Three have explanations, two have none. My bad. I edited for conformance to WP's Manual of Style and for brevity, fixed one or more Wikilinks, cleaned up some formatting, added a cite. What we are after is an excellent article on the subject. The way it becomes excellent is via the iterative contributions of editors such as you and me. Do you feel the article is worse as a result of my edits? Best,Seligne (talk)17:32, 13 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Seligne, It's not that kind of worse but you deleted some main points of view that I mentioned in my paragraphs, especially the one, describing about Cambodian vihara architecture. At least, you're good at organizing sentences in terms of both grammar and vocabulary. Are you Thai or Lao ? If so, we're able to improve this article to be much better all together.Chanrasmey Miech (talk)03:44, 14 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
