[KS] formal question (which version of Chinese characters?)

[Best, Jonathan]

Dear Frank,

I wholly agree with Andrew and will add that in the instance of a long running journal that has been around long enough to have the kind of graphs used in its title, etc. pass through a change or two, I'd use the graphs employed when the particular number of the journal being cited was issued.

Dear Frank,

I claim no expertise on this topic, but just to offer an opinion: unless making a political statement, I'd have thought it's always best to reproduce whatever has been used in the original publication.

Although obviously closely related, traditional, Simplified and Japanese kanji are now - synchronically speaking - independent scripts used to represent different languages. (Anecdotally, when I very briefly worked at a Japanese company, they complained when I typed Japanese $B at D$$(B with Korean $B|X(B as they didn't regarded it to be the same).

sincerely
Andrew
