Bitcoin

We should probably add a section about them accepting bitcoin at a time when other orgs accepting donations had $9 million frozen (but bitcoin assets cannot be frozen). Just need more sources, ideally from archives of their now-defunct website

My edit

@42.3.89.250 and 78.46.228.185: a note why I reverted your edits in part.

I trimmed some of the direct quotations in order for this article to comply with the non-free content policy, which emphasises that quotations of copyrighted text should be brief. There is no reason to quote more text than is necessary for a reader to understand what is being said.
In particular, the part about Geng Shuang was directly copied from the Bloomberg article (republished by SCMP) and is likely a copyright violation. The fact that the news article placed Geng's response at its bottom suggests that we should probably give less weight to Geng's statement compared to statements made by others, such as Charles Mok and Maciej Cegłowski.
Not sure why a maintenance tag is warranted for "disputed by international observers in Hong Kong", as it is as reported in the cited Guardian article: But the chief executive has been criticised for “taking at face value” the claims of the Hong Kong police, which don’t chime with the experiences of international observers on the ground.
Neither the cited Guardian article nor our Wikipedia article on Charles Mok mentions him being an "opposition" lawmaker, so describing him as "an opposition LegCo member" would be WP:UNDUE in the context of this article. As a compromise, I instead mentioned Mok's political affiliation.
"Glory to Hong Kong" is defined as an unofficial anthem frequently sung by protesters during the ongoing anti-government movement by the Guardian source, and it has also been widely described as an "unofficial anthem" by other WP:RS; "Hong Kong is not a country" is not a valid reason for Wikipedia to diverge from how sources have commonly defined the song.

I welcome further discussion on this article. feminist (talk) 14:11, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If this is wrong then you need RS supporting the change, OR does not trump an RS.Slatersteven (talk) 14:37, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hong Kongers are divided on the anthem issue, and you can cherry pick Western sources if you want but WP:ATTRIBUTEPOV still stands.103.127.65.44 (talk) 15:38, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

So find a source that says this is not the case, if you cannot it was not cherry picked.Slatersteven (talk) 17:07, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Does site still exist?

On trying to access the website recently, I was redirected to Cloudflare saying it was down. Wayback Machine also seems to show it having been down in many of its archival attempts. Astrealix (talk) 13:48, 18 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
