Yang Xin (art historian)
- ... that Yang Xin, vice director of the Palace Museum in Beijing, and his counterpart at the National Palace Museum in Taipei, collaborated for the first co-publication of the two Palace Museums? Source: "他也曾与时任台北故宫博物院副院长的张临生女士合作主编了两岸故宫国宝集结的大型图文集《国宝荟萃》，第一次实现了两岸故宫的合璧之作" - "In 1992, he and Chang Lin-sheng, the vice director of the National Palace Museum in Taiwan, co-authored the monumental illustrated book Guobao Huicui ("A Collection of National Treasures"), the first co-publication by the two Palace Museums across the Taiwan Strait."

- The article was new enough when submitted for DYK. It is long enough with more than 2000 bytes of prose, and reasonably well sourced to Chinese news articles. I find the hook fact interesting (first cross-straits collaboration between the two Palace Museums is nontrivial), and it is cited inline and stated in the sources. I have a slight query about the connection of Yang Xin to Xu Bangda: to me it reads as if Xu was not a regular professor at the Central Academy of Fine Arts, but did lecture there occasionally. So that sentence is probably correct but could be misunderstood? Anyway that is not related to the hook fact, a QPQ has been done, and overall this is fine.
