Reviewer hasn't finished in 11 days, I'll take this review.

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook eligibility:

Cited: - Offline/paywalled citation accepted in good faith
Interesting:
Other problems: - I'd leave the title untranslated; also, I'd use a different, more hooky translation (Master of the Doctrine of Subduing Women), and a note that it is a translation. As an ALT0a: That Ming dynasty novella Cu hulu was written under a pseudonym that might translate to "Master of the Doctrine of Subduing Women"?

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Open to workshopping the hook–there are other alts we can use. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 00:44, 17 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

oops, i have to ping people? @Kingoflettuce: theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 01:12, 17 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

seems less "fun" if we included the "under a pseudonym that might translate..." bit, and the translation has a nicer ring than the original title. But I think it's your call as the reviewer! Cheers, Kingoflettuce (talk) 07:12, 17 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Kingoflettuce: sorry about the delay, I forgot to watch this page. How about:

ALT0b: ... that the Ming dynasty novella The Jealous Wife might have been written by the "Master of the Doctrine of Subduing Women"?

seems like a good balance between brevity/hookiness and accuracy to me. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 08:01, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

sounds good to me! Cheers, Kingoflettuce (talk) 16:57, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Great! Well done on the article, I thought it was really interesting. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 01:50, 29 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
