Anti-corruption campaign in China (2013–)
[edit]... that an unprecedented anti-corruption campaign has been on-going since 2013 in China?
- ALT1:... that 99 high-ranking officials in China have been implicated in an anti-corruption campaign that began in 2013?
- Comment: This article took me several months to complete after cobbling together massive amounts of research on multiple fronts, most of the 'sub-articles' in the "list" section is also of reasonable quality and can be DYK'ed if need be.

- Very nice and comprehensive article. I can't imagine how many hours the author has put into this article. Thanks for the tremendous amount of hard work! It meets most DYK criteria, but a few sections are uncited, which I've tagged in the article. -Zanhe (talk) 17:24, 24 March 2015 (UTC)
- @Zanhe: the missing citations have been fully added. Colipon+(Talk) 17:49, 29 March 2015 (UTC)
- I don't think the main hook is interesting enough. ALT1 is better, but I cannot find any citation for the number 70. And if you want to use the image, please propose a hook that mentions Zhou Yongkang. -Zanhe (talk) 17:33, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- I was able to find a source for "99" tigers (here), although this includes both military and civilian officials. Let's change the number "70" to "99" if you are amenable to that. Thanks! Colipon+(Talk) 03:34, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
- Adding my praise for the hard work that went into this, and a picky comment: the first paragraph under Background doesn't have a citation, and the source article for the paragraph after that doesn't seem to support it (or at least doesn't use the words "1978", "promotion", or "contract". --Rosekelleher (talk) 20:57, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
- @Rosekelleher:, I have added citations to the paragraph. It's fairly common knowledge so I didn't feel a citation was necessary, but if I must... Colipon+(Talk) 18:14, 18 April 2015 (UTC)
