BeiDou Navigation Satellite System

Would it meet our article title naming standards to call it "BeiDou", or simply "Beidou"? --benlisquareTCE 05:14, 5 March 2015 (UTC)

Sammi Cheng

{{Sammi Cheng}} FYI: All the Sammi Cheng subarticles were redirected to Sammi Cheng discography on 1 March 2015 by someone. Category:Sammi Cheng albums and Category:Sammi Cheng video albums‎ are now empty, so are also likely to be speedily deleted. {{Sammi Cheng}} has now been nominated for deletion. -- 70.51.200.101 (talk) 07:13, 5 March 2015 (UTC)

Possible sources on Chinese Americans

I don't know which articles will find these most helpful... WhisperToMe (talk) 05:44, 8 March 2015 (UTC)

Cao Cao

The article is being hounded to death by several IPs (likely the same person or meatpuppets) insisting that Cao Cao was an emperor because his "official" title was Emperor Wu of Wei. Of course we all know that this title is posthumous and we typically don't consider posthumously-named emperors to be emperors themselves. Is there a guideline on Misplaced Pages or scholarship that explicitly points this out? The root of the problem in this article is that it's not well referenced with modern sources, so if anyone can help in this regard, that would be great. _dk (talk) 00:16, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

@Underbar dk and Lds: This is signature ProfessorJane, who since being blocked has been using some kind of VPN/mobile service to disrupt from a large number of IP's. This user is obsessed with aggrandizing historical figures and pushing an ultranationalistic POV. See page histories of Lord Chunshen, Huang (state), Culture of Korea, Culture of South Korea, etc. -Zanhe (talk) 05:15, 14 March 2015 (UTC)
@Zanhe: I'm not so sure. The modus operandi looks a bit different, with this user obsessing over calling PRC "communist" and Taiwan "democratic" in Cao Cao, which seems at odds with ProfessorJane's insistence of using "Republic of China (Taiwan)" everywhere and their ultranationalistic Chinese agenda.Actually, after reading more closely, I rescind this statement. Thanks for lead, we certainly should keep an eye out for these users and their methods. _dk (talk) 06:19, 14 March 2015 (UTC)
@Underbar dk and Zanhe: It might be helpful to keep a lookout for other Cao Cao- and Three Kingdoms-related articles as well. See what happened on The Assassins (2012 film). LDS contact me 06:38, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

Jay Chou article

The Jay Chou article is a FA, but it contains many citaion needed tags. Can someone fix these. I'm tempted to start a FAR if these issues are not addressed.--FutureTrillionaire (talk) 00:12, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

How to best display Chinese in pages of overseas-Hong Kong persons?

Please see Talk:Jenny Kwan for a discussion on how best to display Chinese for overseas Hong Kong persons (Canadians of Hong Kong origin, etc.) such as Jenny Kwan, Olivia Chow, and Michael Chong? Among the issues:

  • Should the Chinese be embedded in the person's infobox? (as opposed to Template:Chinese)
  • Should Cantonese and Mandarin be included, or only Cantonese?
  • Should Simplified Chinese be included with the Traditional characters?

Opinion

At Misplaced Pages:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard#Reliable_sources_in_China I found an opinion arguing that Misplaced Pages should relax its notability standards when dealing with places outside of the USA. You guys may want to take a look at it.

I would like for you to provide insight on what sources are "reliable." I will reply there too. WhisperToMe (talk) 14:13, 25 March 2015 (UTC)

Portia Li

Are there any Chinese speakers who could help in sourcing this article about a reporter for the World Journal, Chinese-language American newspaper? It's quite possible that there are articles in the Chinese-language press, but they're hard to find and interpret without a knowledge of the language. The article is being discussed for deletion at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Portia Li. – Voceditenore (talk) 06:33, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
