Role in the Community
- Community record held in the corpus as [[works/taiwaneseamericanhistory-org/whos-who-1833-shang-fa-yang|TAH encyclopedia record #1833 (2017-08-13)]].
- A second corpus record names him: 743. Shang Fa Yang (2015-12-20) — a bibliographic feature record (band B, no full text in vault), so his community footprint in the corpus is two TAH directory/feature records; no memoir text names him.
- HOLD: possible duplicate person page — corpus record 743 links Shang Fa Yang (楊祥發, same era 1932–2007, same UC Davis career) as a separate page from this one; never auto-merged.
- Corpus-wide grep re-runs 2026-09-25 (deepen-x slices 09231100-26 and 09250400-13) and 2026-09-26 (slice 09252123-25): hit set = own records #1833 + #743 plus index rows; both are band-B directory/feature records with no body text; beyond the #743 link above the page remains saturated.
