Pro China bias?

[edit]


The edit made by Viztor in May of 2019 needs a citation as the addition of one word negates the sense of the definition. It does appear that China has publicly stated they have replaced the kidnapping with detention (per this story in The Economist), you cannot detain a person until you have obtained that person and the practice of Shuanggui was about that method of obtaining people (via extralegal kidnapping).
While the name of the process of kidnapping people may have been retired, there is no evidence that the practice of kidnapping people has been retired.
Perhaps an added citation or a rephrasing to say that China claims to have abolished the practice. That every instance of the word I could find in a quick online search used the exact phrase "abolish" is almost too coincidental. It also appears that user Viztor has made many pro China edits across several pages. I dunno, maybe I'm full of beans and seeing foreign trolls where none exist.
