Article is new enough and long enough. Seems well sourced with no unverified claims. I was going to suggest a GA nomination, but I'm glad to see it already is! Krisgabwoosh (talk) 06:05, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"The communist era"

The phrase "the communist era" appears twice in the article referring to some historical era. This is not a historical title that I'm familiar with and does not appear at History of China. Considering that in 2024, the CPC is still the government, this seems like something that should be changed. ☆ Bri (talk) 02:30, 15 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Bri: changed this to the "Mao era". Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 03:07, 15 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
