Good except for some minor issues. Long enough, new enough at the time of nomination, Earwig detects no copyvios. Aside from the one failed verification I tagged, all the English-language sources seem OK. It might be good to wikilink the names of the news sources if they have Wikipedia articles, just to make it totally clear what their relation to the CCP is, but the page text handles the English-language CCP media outlets appropriately.

Minor grammar issues: I would expect "killed by a flash flood" rather than "killed by flash flood". This could be a variety of English thing, though. I'd also expect "Title of" instead of just "Title".

I prefer ALT0 to ALT1, but both could be condensed and punched up. Apocheir (talk) 01:09, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Apocheir: I have wikilinked the news sources which have articles in Wikipedia and also corrected the minor grammar issues which you stated. Let me know if the hook is now good to go. Toadboy123 (talk) 13:53, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Page looks fine now, just marking as AGF because I can't read hanzi. For the hook, this is going to get tweaked by the people who do the DYK process anyways, but how about:

ALT0a ... that after her 2019 death in rural China, Huang Wenxiu was elevated into a national model by the Chinese Communist Party?

@Apocheir: Fine with it. Toadboy123 (talk) 14:20, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Propaganda

This is clearly a Chinese propaganda piece. Surely this shouldn't be permitted, let alone promoted? 81.77.237.164 (talk) 05:59, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My thoughts exactly. Missimack (talk) 20:14, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think the issue is that nearly all the sources are Chinese, and China is only second to North Korea on least press freedom. I have added a Political POV tag in the hopes that better, non Chinese-controlled sources are found. Missimack (talk) 21:07, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
