- @Zanhe: Reviewing this - basic conditions met and I'm going for the refchecks for the body:
- "begged their way to Wuhan" - I don't see the "begging" part in the article - or is it lost in Google Translation?
- "bachelor's degree in physics in 1942" - doesn't seem to be in the cited QQ source
- Otherwise, everything else seems to be good to go. Juxlos (talk) 10:54, 12 June 2019 (UTC)
- @Juxlos: Thanks for your review. Yes, Google translation strangely omits the entire part about begging. Here's the sentence in the source: "汤定元和同学一起沿途“求乞”，步行到武汉". Translation: "Tang Dingyuan and his classmates together begged along the way, arriving in Wuhan on foot". Regarding the second question, it's actually from The Paper, which says he graduated from the Physics Department of NCU. I added the source to the sentence and reworded it. -Zanhe (talk) 22:48, 12 June 2019 (UTC)
