Greetings to fellow CN authors.[edit]

Hello to my fellow CN practitioners. (Especially Adam and Sensei Robert!!)

I was using WP to do some quick research and noticed the Cuong Nhu article, which I hadn't seen in quite some time. (I think I saw it last shortly after it was first posted.)

I am truly impressed with your efforts, but the article is still being defined in WP as a "stub". I have been looking through Wiki's Martial Arts Project, and I was thinking of making the effort to expand the Cuong Nhu article into something more akin to those dedicated to other nationally recognized arts.

Rather than play tug-of-war with edits, I thought it made sense to contact -several- people in CN to gather material and make editorial decisions.

You can reach me either here, or through the talk section of my user page.

Expanding the page[edit]

Hi, my name is Zack and I come from the Sung ming Shu Dojo of Atlanta, Georgia. I was on Wikipedia one day and decided to check out the page. I saw that it was at a good start and had the basic information, but could be expanded on. So now I have made an account and started helping expand the page. For a reason, I want people to know about Cuong Nhu. I'm the one who added the kata's andd the ranking system, but I'm going to do more. If any information is incorrect feel free to change it. And to Chris B, I'm sorry if you felt like I'm having an editing tug-of-war with you. I just want more people to know about the style.
