See here for the 2020 RfC in which editors reached this decision.
Guidelines for the article Taiwan

The following guidelines have been established by consensus and convention:

  1. Simplified Chinese shall remain in the linguistics infobox per Misplaced Pages:Manual of Style (use of Chinese language)#Simplified and Traditional
  2. Please do not add Simplified characters and tongyong pinyin to the country infobox.
  3. The topic of this article is the Republic of China although its title has been moved to Taiwan.
  4. Please refrain from adding "(Taiwan)" indiscriminately because this article includes historical information about the Republic of China as well as Taiwan.
This article has previously been nominated to be moved. Please review the prior discussions if you are considering re-nomination.

Discussions:

Discussions on this page often lead to previous arguments being restated, especially about "country" vs "state", and "Taiwan" vs "Republic of China", and "Taiwan is a part of China", and "Taiwan is a province of China". Please read recent comments and look in the archives before commenting on that topic.
Peace dove with olive branch in its beakPlease stay calm and civil while commenting or presenting evidence, and do not make personal attacks. Be patient when approaching solutions to any issues. If consensus is not reached, other solutions exist to draw attention and ensure that more editors mediate or comment on the dispute.

About RoC after retreat? 2

I think it is a good idea to make this articulation much more clear, but the discussion was closed. 36.230.24.108 (talk) 16:07, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

If it was closed it was closed for a reason, and you have added nothing new. Slatersteven (talk) 16:12, 16 November 2024 (UTC)
This turned into quibbling about Taiwan being referred to as a country. But the original idea is great i think. 36.230.24.108 (talk) 16:14, 16 November 2024 (UTC)
