Pingjiang Road

Canal and houses along Pingjiang Road

... that the historic district of Pingjiang Road (pictured) in Suzhou was featured in the Southern Song Dynasty map Pingjiang Tu, produced in the year 1229?

5x expanded by Wishva de Silva (talk) and Another Believer (talk). Nominated by Wishva de Silva (talk) at 05:02, 25 July 2016 (UTC).

Sources seems fine, article has enough prose and is five times expanded and is neutral and appears to be free of plagiarism (using good faith on Foreign language sources). Ditto for the picture Andrzejbanas (talk) 16:41, 29 July 2016 (UTC)

Hi, I came by to promote this, but do not see an inline cite for the hook fact. Yoninah (talk) 20:13, 1 August 2016 (UTC)

@Yoninah:: Hi! Thanks for pointing out! I've fixed the issue, the fact is now stated in reference #5 (this, in Chinese). WdS | Talk 13:18, 20 August 2016 (UTC)

@Wishva de Silva: an inline cite should appear at the end of the sentence in question. I moved the citation that confirms the year of 1229 to the end of that sentence. Which citation confirms that The city of Suzhou was known as Pingjiang during Southern Song Dynasty? Yoninah (talk) 22:14, 20 August 2016 (UTC)

Returning from prep. @MPJ-DK: Per Rule H2, you cannot approve a hook that you reviewed. Perhaps you could also show me where the inline cite appears at the end of the sentence in question? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 09:33, 21 August 2016 (UTC)

@Yoninah: - I figured since the issue was the lack of inline citation, found when trying to move it to the prep the fact that it now has the inline citation (and it is not a new source) I figured it was not a problem, I stand corrected. MPJ-DK 11:19, 21 August 2016 (UTC)

And I am confused as to why you are asking if Suzhou was known as Pingjiang? Source lists Pingjiang as part of Suzhou? MPJ-DK 11:27, 21 August 2016 (UTC)

@MPJ-DK: I added an inline cite for the hook fact that the Pingjiang Tu map was published in 1229. I am trying to verify the hook fact that map was published during the Southern Song Dynasty. Yoninah (talk) 13:37, 21 August 2016 (UTC)

@Yoninah: ah I did not realize that. Are you aware that the link you gave sends you to a section labeled "Southern Song, 1127–1279"? That does put 1229 in that time range so I did not realize that was in need of explicit citation, but I totally defer to your judgement and experience here. MPJ-DK 14:10, 21 August 2016 (UTC)

@MPJ-DK: I'm having trouble navigating the Google translation of the Chinese source. But I did find the Song Dynasty/map connection mentioned in the English-language footnote 2, which I added as an additional inline cite to the hook fact in the article. The problem with this nomination is that all the information in the paragraph is cited to 4 references placed at the very end of the paragraph; since they are mostly in Chinese, it's almost impossible to check which one verifies the sentence with the hook facts. But now it's fine. Foreign-language hook ref for the year (1229) AGF and cited inline; rest of hook facts in online ref that's verified and cited inline. Rest of review per Andrzejbanas. Good to go.
