Brick kiln vs Brickyard

Is it me or is this article mixing the two things up? Kiln is the furnace used to make the stuff, while brickyard is the place where people work. --Voidvector (talk) 19:42, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In Chinese, Brick kiln and brick yards are the same word(s). In anycase, the event and this article refer to the place where bricks are produced. Thus the proper English translation would be brick kiln.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.229.92.254 (talk • contribs)

The article should use "brickyard" in English since that is what those places are. The Chinese usage of "brick kiln" (砖窑) is likely a misnomer, since kiln (窑) is the furnace equipment not a workplace. And yes there is a word for "brickyard" in Chinese, it is "砖厂". --Voidvector (talk) 06:46, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Removing categories

I think the removing of categories Slavery and Unfree labor deserves an explanation. Bertport (talk) 12:45, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Consensus request to change article name

China illegal brick kiln slaves would be a more appropriate name.
Even the incidence was discovered in 2007, the problem has not been resolved, as the operators of illegal black kilns are still operating openly today, under the protection of local governments. Arilang ^talk 07:09, 21 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
