Table guide

*Personal Names (English): Gives name(s) of person in English. If that person was born with a Chinese name, it is listed in Mandarin pinyin. If one has a Cantonese or other Chinese dialect name, the Mandarin pinyin takes priority over it in order listing. The names will be listed in alphabetical order. For the sake of tidiness, the Family name will go first. *Personal Names (Chinese): Given name(s) of the person in traditional full Chinese characters. If that person does not have a Chinese name, it would be marked 'None'. *Dates: Gives the year of birth and death of said person. If not known, then deceased (dec.) or active (act.) will be used instead. *School or Base: The person's school or where they are currently active if known. *Remarks: Any important information about this person, e.g. their occupation, experience, etc.
