• Reviewed: Will do Lal Sena
• Comment: @Reviewers: Don't worry. You only need to verify the hook(s) most interesting to you. If you need tighter sourcing for the original hook, lemme know and I can copy/paste some descriptive text and sourcing from Kingdom of Tungning.

• Article is new and long enough. I am only checking the first hook which is referenced although the part "at war with mainland China" is not explicitly stated in the article. You need to make that clear which isn't unless a reader is either familiar with the topic or click on the links. No copyright or neutrality issue detected. QPQ is done. Image is properly licensed. Fix the missing part and it is good to go. --KAVEBEAR (talk) 06:49, 20 December 2016 (UTC)

• Done. Kingdom of Tungning didn't have an online source, but this one covers the relevant period and can be spotchecked there or at Zheng Jing for general accuracy (the state-of-war claim). They tried to sue for peace but it didn't work out and ended up in a defensive war punctuated by coastal raiding. — LlywelynII 08:21, 21 December 2016 (UTC)

• Good to go. It was still missing the direct reference to the mainland which I just boldly added. I know the history but not all reader would. --KAVEBEAR (talk) 08:25, 21 December 2016 (UTC)
