Leroy L. Chang

Many thanks for these edits. I had a brief look at zh:张立纲. Though it looks short, there is a mention of a Leslie T. Chang, but I'm not sure what the context is there. Would you be able to help with anything useful from that article and its sources? Anything substantial is probably best left at the article talk page, where I will (eventually) be putting some notes on possible future expansions of the article. Carcharoth (talk) 00:43, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

Sorry I've been very busy lately in real life and haven't had time to improve the article. Will try to get back to it hopefully in a few days. -Zanhe (talk) 11:24, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

Many thanks for the additional edits and information added there (I've only just had time to look). I did remove the link placed on his father's name (see here) as that appears to be a different and more famous Zhang Shenfu (who died in 1986 as opposed to 1946). I may try and expand our current one line(!) stub on Zhang Shenfu, as he sounds like an interesting individual. Going back to the other Zhang Shenfu (died 1946), I found an English-language source here, though that seems to be a blog, so maybe a better source is needed. Carcharoth (talk) 01:30, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Interesting, Zhang Shenfu was a red link when I edited Leroy Chang a few days ago; someone just created the one-line stub yesterday. Anyway, Leroy Chang's father was also a significant person whose death triggered widespread anti-Soviet protests in China. -Zanhe (talk) 04:18, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Mychele Trempetich's edits

I have noticed your work on ancient Chinese rulers. Have you run across the mess Mychele Trempetich has made on most of the Xia, Shang and Zhou kings. These articles are ridiculously overlinked (Fa of Xia has links to celebration and inauguration, Why?), containing many unreliable sources from website just found by her google searches (I don't think most of them are just plainly added for the purpose of adding references like referencing a name in an infobox for no apparent reason), and the excessive genealogy that is mentioned on the articles with the subjects' son, grandfather, father, uncle and even more linked and mentioned for no apparent reason, and also she someone thinks it is a good idea to divided an article of a person we only know a few sentences about into sections, and sentence long paragraphs paragraphs. To be honest most of her changes would be better off reverted and restored to it previous unreferenced version than for them to persist as they are. Hope you can do something about this. Oh yeah and also some abominably inaccurate translation on articles like Xie of Xia (His name means "thankful".). --KAVEBEAR (talk) 06:30, 25 July 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the notice. I agree with you that Mychele Trempetich's edits are generally not too helpful, but I don't feel they're harmful either. Unfortunately most articles about the early Chinese kings have always been in a sorry state, and undoing her edits will not really make them better. I removed the egregiously wrong "thankful" statement, but it was added by an IP, not by Mychele. It is on my todo list to rewrite all those articles, and I've been gathering academic sources which are not easy to locate. But filling all those big holes in Wikipedia takes a lot of time and I probably won't be able to get to them until many months later. -Zanhe (talk) 09:24, 25 July 2013 (UTC)

Actually base on my dealings with her on Hawaiian subjects, Mychele has the propensity to use multiple IP addresses usually on articles she has edits in and generally they are written in the same fashion with the observed characteristics I listed above. Good luck with it.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 10:04, 25 July 2013 (UTC)

Hmm, you're most likely right. The IP (93.138.41.148) that made the edit geolocates to Zagreb, which matches her description about herself. -Zanhe (talk) 10:10, 25 July 2013 (UTC)

Shanghai Tower topping out

Is this ITN-worthy, as being the new tallest nationally? Chinese Wiki has already posted it. GotR ^Talk 21:14, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

I think it is, as the tallest in China and second tallest in the world, but it's a toss-up. The Shard was on ITN and it's only half the height of Shanghai Tower, but then it's the tallest in the EU. In any case, it's probably worth a try, though the article needs to be updated a bit more before being nominated (the rule of thumb is five sentences). Do you want to do the work?

Longxu, not Longwei

Dear Zanhe, sorry, but I have to inform you that Longwei is a wrong reading for 龙圩, the district of Wuzhou city. The character 圩 with the meaning "market", "marketplace" is a Cantonese word and in this case is pronounced xū in Mandarin. In China the character is better known with the reading wéi, meaning "dam", "dike", "levee", but in this case that's wrong, so Longwei is a wrong reading of the placename Longxu 龙圩. Please have a look for example here]. Greetings from German Wikipedia, --Ingochina (talk) 07:21, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the note. I was influenced by several existing pages using the Longwei spelling such as List of administrative divisions of Guangxi and Wuzhou. But I think you're right, it should be read as Longxu in this case, like Wuxu Airport. -Zanhe (talk) 07:50, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

Disputed areas between India and China

Hi Zanhe, we have a disagreement on whether the category Category:Areas occupied by China after the Sino-Indian War can be added to articles inclding Lanak Pass, Spanggur Gap, Galwan River, Sirijap and Khurnak Fort based on the reliability and/or neutrality of the sources in the articles. Inspite of my requesting you at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2013 August 28 to first have a discussion to obtain the views of the editor community on this before removing the category, you have again removed the category. I am readding the category and again I request you to have a discussion first at Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard or at Wikipedia:Neutral point of view/Noticeboard. Regards, The Discoverer (talk) 02:22, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

I waited nearly two weeks until the closing of the WP:ANI discussion before removing the category, following the lead of the closing admin Jreferee. Yet you reverted my edits immediately after you resumed editing (one of your reverts at Galwan River has since been undone by the creator of that article.) Jreferee has advised us to follow WP:Category#Articles, which says: "Categorization must maintain a neutral point of view" and "Categorizations should generally be uncontroversial." By drawing conclusions solely on non-neutral Indian sources, your edits have clearly violated those criteria. -Zanhe (talk) 19:04, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

• Hi Zanhe. The ANI close applies only to what is listed. There were only two participants in the ANI discussion. It was more of an editing dispute, since Wikipedia:Categorization is an editing guideline, than an ANI matter, and limited to the article discussed. My comments as an admin in this case are limited to views derived from the text of the ANI discussion I closed. My other comments are more as an editor. While two of us may agree against one, that does not mean that consensus has been reached, particularly when there is no actual closed discussion. Resolving Content Disputes provides some information that may be useful. Deleting a category and posting a category to an article are judge by different standards. Editors do not monitor ANI to post views on NPOV matters. For the issue to be resolved, you need input from more editors besides the two in disagreement and a third, partially involved editor. I think your best bet is to post at Wikipedia:Neutral point of view/Noticeboard since editors who regularly deal in NPOV matters post there. WP:NPOV states "Wikipedia aims to present competing views in proportion to their representation in reliable sources on the subject. This applies not only to article text, but to ... categories." Your argument may be that Category:Areas occupied by China after the Sino-Indian War, Category:Areas controlled by China since the Sino-Indian War, or anything along those lines is incapable of presenting competing views in proportion to their representation in reliable sources on the subject. Also, there are no articles within Wikipedia where such categories could be placed in compliance with Wikipedia:Category#Articles, so the category should be declared NPOV for any article. -- Jreferee (talk) 04:49, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

• Hi Jreferee, thanks for your explanation of the dispute resolution process. I posted at ANI because I felt the behaviour of The Discoverer went beyond a normal POV pusher. As shown in the evidence I presented at ANI, he quoted a copious amount of sources, while writing things that are the complete opposite of what the sources say. And he did it repeatedly on a number of different articles, which smacks of malicious intent to me. I only presented details for one article Khurnak Fort, which you acted upon, because it would have taken too much space to analyze every article. Now his tactic is to give up on Khurnak Fort, as well as Galwan River where he was reverted by a third user Wangernest, while keep on edit warring on the remaining three articles Lanak Pass, Spanggur Gap, and Sirijap. I think he should get a temporary block or at least a warning for this kind of disruptive behaviour. -Zanhe (talk) 05:47, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

• He has now resumed edit warring on Galwan River. -Zanhe (talk) 18:25, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

She was from Chun'an, which is part of the modern Hangzhou. I am going to add the Hangzhou category back, but please let me know if you have a counterargument. --Nlu (talk) 20:01, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

I'm not very comfortable with the idea of projecting today's political boundaries back on historical times. Chun'an has been part of Hangzhou only for the past 60 years or so. During the Song Dynasty, it was part of Muzhou, which was separate from Hangzhou. -Zanhe (talk) 08:04, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

Understood, and valid point, but I do think that we have to do that. The geographic categorizations are intended to make proper geographic associations, and I don't really think that there is a way to do it but to use modern boundaries.

Film description

Hi. When it comes to defining/categorizing a film, which is a director's medium, very few film scholars or critics would go by which government it was made under. I have rarely seen such categorization in serious film journalism. When you describe a film in its opening sentence, you use the most common description, thus your reasoning of "it's important to specify the government" of a film makes little sense when it comes to these titles.

For examples, Jean Renoir's The Rules of the Game (La Règle du jeu) was made during the French Third Republic, but the film is commonly described as a French film, rather than a "French Third Republic" film, in spite of the various political undertones hinted in Renoir's masterpiece. Likewise, Marcel Carné's Les Visiteurs du Soir was made during Vichy France, but the film is known as a French film, rather than a "Vichy France film". There are various ways you can convey the political aspects of the film, such as an elaboration of the backdrop of the time period. Regards.--TheLeopard (talk) 08:53, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

May I ask what's the downside if we do mention the historical period during which the films were made? After all, we do define The Peach Blossom Fan as a Qing Dynasty play, and Xi Xiang Ji as a Yuan Dynasty play, not simply a Chinese play. For the late ROC-era films, many are politically charged and anti-KMT government. It's important to note specifically what government they were made under, IMO. By the way, Les Visiteurs du Soir does specify in the lead that it was made during the Nazi occupation, i.e., the Vichy period. -Zanhe (talk) 09:12, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

• As someone who is fairly (ha!) active in film articles, I'd go with "a Chinese film" then give a full sentence. Nobody outside of readers already versed in Chinese history would get the political ramifications from simply stating the dynasty/historical period. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:21, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

Well one thing to remember is that film is a "modern medium", especially in comparison to literature, where it does tend to be divided into specific periods due to the lengthy timeline. Also, Xi Xiang Ji is described as a Chinese dramatic work in its article, and if you take any courses about that work in a university, it is described as a Chinese play, one of the most renowned of course.--TheLeopard (talk) 09:25, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

Also, to answer: "By the way, Les Visiteurs du Soir does specify in the lead that it was made during the Nazi occupation, i.e., the Vichy period." Yes, as I stated above, mentioning the political background of the film is absolutely fine, i.e. I inserted information in the articles that they were made during the Republic of China.--TheLeopard (talk) 09:25, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for this interesting article. I've now started uploading the images from here to Commons, and will clean them up a bit later. File:Ye Qianyu, "Serpent and Woman." Shanghai manhua 4 (May 12, 1928).jpg looks quite nice. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:50, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Interesting artist indeed. I started out intending to write a basic stub, but couldn't stop adding information and ended up spending hours.

Hello, Zanhe. You have new messages at HYH.124's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

There was an ongoing discussion on the talk page of the article. Could you take part in the discussion? Many Wikipedians couldn't help because they are not familiar with the topic of Chinese monarchs. --Huang (user page | talk | contribs | info) 10:48, 14 November 2013 (UTC)

Regarding your edits to Daughter of Emperor Xiaoming of Northern Wei

I have noted all the changes you made to the article, including placing {{citations needed}}, and would like to express my thoughts. The article is translated from a good article in Chinese Wikipedia, and the event was over 1000 years ago, so it would be rather unlikely to trace history. However, since you have raised the concern, I shall ask according to the changes you made.

{{Citations needed}} tags

1. Ever since, there was no more historical records about her. (If there was no more historical records, it means that there was no more mentions about her in history and in historical books. If so, How could there even be records about her, and to cite the statement according to records?)

What if there are other records that are unknown to Wikipedia editors? We cannot be assured of that fact without a source. If it's true (which I do not doubt), it should be straightforward to find a modern source that asserts that. -Zanhe (talk) 05:34, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

1. ... this story provides a largely factual account of events. (the statement is just to tell that the story is based on facts and historical records. As such, I don't think it is possible to cite it, because [1] Am I supposed to cite the entire story with a list of facts? The novel is already mentioned, why need to cite it? [2] It is clearly obvious to Wikipedians that they have to read the novel to actually know. Why would a complementary statement need citations if it is already referenced and that no reliable sources would be on the internet?)

You could cite Cai Dongfan's novel (is it on wikisource?), or preferably, a modern historian who asserts that. See also WP:SYNTHESIS. -Zanhe (talk) 05:38, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

Others

1. Since you said that there was no need to quote the entire Chinese text of the edict and the summary in English would suffice, why was the overview below the edict removed? [3]

The article already mentions that the edict declared that Yuan was a girl and Yuan Zhao would be emperor, and I felt that was enough. As I said, feel free to add it back if you think more details would be beneficial. -Zanhe (talk) 05:44, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions and hope that you can answer my doubts. --Huang (user page | talk | contribs | info) 05:13, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

Also, may I know which country do you come from? You have contributed largely to articles related to China. Do you contribute to other articles? --Huang (talk) 17:02, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

Thanks your great work on the article, and the barnstar. To answer your question, I'm a Canadian of Chinese ancestry.

I've also written a few articles on Mexico and India, as well as aviation-related lists. -Zanhe (talk) 06:44, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

I saw your source for Cai Dongfan's work and it was indeed a reliable source. References 5, 7 and 8 are unreliable sources added by me because they are either lifted from Chinese Wikipedia's article or works that have gone viral on the internet. Especially Baidu Baike which had three similar articles infringing Wikipedia's copyright. Could you help to cite reliable sources for the three statements? Also, there is a list requiring copy-editing for the article on Talk:Daughter of Emperor Xiaoming of Northern Wei/GA1 where the GA nomination is failed. Could you help to copy edit them? Also, in your edit summary, you stated "dab". What does that mean? --Huang (talk) 07:45, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

I'll try, but can't guarantee I can find reliable sources for them. If we can't find good sources, it's probably better to delete the statements and it won't affect the article much. Dab is short for disambiguation. -Zanhe (talk) 09:29, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

I cited reliable sources for all of them except for the fact that there was no more historical records about her. If you find more reliable sources, feel free to replace them as you wish. --Huang (talk) 10:22, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Sorry for not responding more promptly. I have been consumed with the various Li (surname) articles lately. Will try to take a look soon. -Zanhe (talk) 06:57, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

I found a more reliable source for the "no more historical records" fact, and copyedited the article a bit. The DYK is fine, but I cannot approve the hook I proposed myself, so I've requested another reviewer. -Zanhe (talk) 07:32, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

Regarding the Li surname RfC and my reverts and redirects

I wanted to send you this talk page message to explain why I redirected four articles that you had created (Li (surname 栗)‎, Li (surname 厉)‎, Li (surname 李)‎, Li (surname 利)‎) back to their original targets (Li (surname meaning "chestnut")‎, Li (surname meaning "whetstone"), Li (surname meaning "plum")‎, and Li (surname meaning "profit")‎ respectively). At the present time, there is not a clear consensus to redirect the titles with titles such as "Li (surname meaning "....")" to titles that include their symbol in the title. Until consensus can be formed, the page titles should remain the way that they are.

In addition, the preferred method to "start a new page" is to move the page from its current title to its new title. If you create a brand new page (and then turn the "old" page into a redirect) instead of moving the page, conflicts are created with attributing contributions to the other editors who worked on the "old" page. Most of the time, in valid "moves" like the ones created by copying the text from another article and then editing it, a situation that requires a history merge is created. Situations like that should always be avoided whenever possible.

At this point, I would recommend leaving the titles where they are until the RfC has been closed. Steel1943 (talk) 22:53, 23 November 2013 (UTC)

I started rewriting the articles after the closure of the recent round of AfD discussions, before the RfC started. They were not moves at all, they were rewritten completely from scratch. The former articles were so poorly written that almost nothing was worth salvaging. They had been subject to numerous AfD, merge, and WP:TNT discussions, and had been moved around, merged, and restored repeatedly, without consensus. Some of the titles were also plain wrong. Li (surname meaning "whetstone")? Li does not even mean whetstone! See its dictionary entry.

I wish someone had notified me of the RfC before I committed several days of my time researching sources and rewriting the articles. But honesty I really don't think the RfC is even necessary. The person who started the RfC is well aware of the long discussion in July at Wikipedia talk:AT, where User:Obiwankenobi convincingly demonstrated how reliable sources treat this issue, and suggested the naming scheme that I followed when creating the new articles. His argument received nearly unanimous support at that discussion. If that's not consensus, I don't know what is. -Zanhe (talk) 00:48, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

In all honestly, I agree with trying to figure out why and RfC is necessary when there was a move discussion happening for this, especially after reviewing the archive discussion. However, given that this RfC directly relates to the articles which I reverted that are part of the Li (surname) chain, moving them elsewhere at this time (until the RfC is closed) would be considered controversial.

Also, I see that you have already reverted one of my changes. I'm not going to unintentionally start an edit war with you regarding this, but I would recommend changing it back until the RfC is closed (given that making any changes to the articles right now can be considered controversial). Steel1943 (talk) 01:00, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

Correction - you have now reverted all of them, I see. Steel1943 (talk) 01:01, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

I don't mean to offend at all. But if you compare Li (surname 栗) with Li (surname meaning "chestnut"), or Li (surname 李) with Li (surname meaning "plum"), for example, you can easily tell which version is superior. Again, I wish I had known about the RfC before devoting hours of my time rewriting the articles, but at this point, I don't see how redirecting to the poorly written old articles would benefit any reader. -Zanhe (talk) 01:10, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

No offense taken, given the fact that I know next to nothing about this subject and honestly don't have the time to figure it out. I just, more or less, have an understanding of how Wikipedia works. The action you took to create those "Li" articles and redirect the "Li (surname meaning "....") was not established as consensus on the RFC discussion. Even though precedent might have been stated in the archived discussion you presented, the community of editors had the option to go against previous consensus and possibly establish a different consensus for the "Li" surname articles. In fact, these points you are directing towards me right now are points that belong in the RFC; I honestly have no desire to get into the discussion regarding he proper title of these articles. And, from an outsider to the RFC who has an understand of how Wikipedia works, your action to create those articles was a bold series of edits that should have not happened (yet) since consensus is still in the process of being formed on the RFC.

...And this is why I'm highly recommending that you revert your edits for the time being. Steel1943 (talk) 01:36, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

While I agree that moving the articles during an RfC that covers naming is poor practice (and Zahne and I disagree on what the names should be), Zahne has made huge improvements to the content of the articles. As naming is somewhat minor in comparison to content, I'm not too put out by the overly bold moves. Currently the talk pages at Li (surname 利), Li (surname 李), and Li (surname 栗) redirect to Talk:Li (surname meaning "profit"), Talk:Li (surname meaning "plum"), and Talk:Li (surname meaning "chestnut"). Whatever the articles are called while the naming discussions are ongoing, could this be fixed so that if there are separate articles they have separate talk pages?--Wikimedes (talk) 02:11, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

@Wikimedes: that is actually the way they are right now; I set up those redirects after I tried to fix the edit-history breaking edits caused by the cut-paste moves that were done before Zanhe improved on the articles at their new titles. (I did get a chance to see the "new" articles before I reverted the edits; I agree that the new articles Zanhe created looked better than the previous ones.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Steel1943 (talk • contribs) 02:25, 24 November 2013‎ (UTC)

Hmm. Talk:Li (surname 利) redirects to Talk:Li (surname meaning "profit"). So there are currently separate articles Li (surname 利) and Li (surname meaning "profit") which share the same talk page. These articles will eventually be merged, but should they have separate talk pages in the meantime?--Wikimedes (talk) 02:43, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

@Wikimedes: I apologize; I misread your statement. (In a nutshell, I thought the first word of your second sentence was "Could" instead of "Currently".) Honestly, since yes, they will have to eventually be merged, it is actually probably best for both talk pages to target the same talk page so that the discussion can be centralized. Steel1943 (talk) 02:47, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

Works for me. (Sorry about the confusion; it would have been clearer if I had written "while there are separate articles" instead of "if there are separate articles" and shortened the previous sentence.)--Wikimedes (talk) 04:11, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

Hi, I've left you some notes at Template:Did you know nominations/Lord Chunshen. Thanks, Matty.007 17:55, 28 November 2013 (UTC)

My talk page

Check it out. I found the policies I'm addressing and the one you and Kave are defending has a giant banner saying it's out of date, disputed, and nonbinding. Kave is simply wrong thinking that people don't call Wu by his name all the time. You lead in with "Emperor Wu", sure, but after that it's a simple name and treated as such. It's the exact same as King Charles II of England; but the page name doesn't include that title. I think it is helpful all around if the pages very clearly differentiate the treatment of the name Wu of Han and the Hongwu Emperor; it might help keep them from treating his name the same way.

I've already done everything through the Northern Qi and can finish later today if there's no problem. If you or whoever revert the existing edits, kindly remember to keep the redirects. — LlywelynII 02:09, 29 November 2013 (UTC)

Liu Che would be the equivalent of Charles II: they're both personal names. Emperor Wu, however, is a posthumous name, which has no equivalent in Europe. Conventionally, posthumous names are accompanied by the title, so they can be distinguished from personal names, which are used by themselves. In any case, it wasn't a good idea for you to start moving hundreds of articles without establishing consensus first. -Zanhe (talk) 05:44, 29 November 2013 (UTC)

Fan Sui reverts

Zanhe,

I have recently undone a number of your edits where you changed "Fan Sui" to "Fan Ju". This is an old problem where most scholars believe the Shiji has a textual error (雎 instead of 睢). See Wang Shumin's 王叔岷 Shiji jiaozheng 史記斠證 (cited in Nienhauser, ed (1994), Grand Scribe's Records, vol. 7) for a detailed note on this issue.

Best wishes.  White Whirlwind  咨  06:56, 29 November 2013 (UTC)

Hey interesting, I was posting on your talk page at the same time. Actually from what I've read, Shiji used Sui instead of Ju, but Zhan Guo Ce and Han Feizi use Ju instead of Sui. And most Chinese scholars now agree it's Ju as that was a common given name of Qin and Han. Crump and Watson also use Fan Ju in their translations. But anyways, it's probably not worth arguing too much about. Correct or not, both are commonly used. -Zanhe (talk) 07:06, 29 November 2013 (UTC)

Revert move to Shijun Liao

Hi Zanhe, I'm not an expert on Chinese names, but even if this is inconsistent with the original language, I have a major concern with you changing the name order of Shijun Liao to Liao Shijun. In the entirety of the publications written by Dr. Liao in english, his name has been ordered Shijun Liao and never the other way around. Because this is how he is known in his academic field in the english-speaking world (especially as the author of two published research monographs), I strongly suggest the article move be reverted. Rememberlands (talk) 10:25, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the note. In English academic publications, it is customary to rearrange the names of Chinese authors using the Western order, probably to avoid citation errors. However, the convention on Wikipedia is to preserve the original name order except for overseas Chinese. See Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Chinese)#Order of names. -Zanhe (talk) 10:42, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

Your edits to Daughter of Emperor Xiaoming of Northern Wei

You are actually not supposed to translate the footnotes but to leave it in the original language, or else make notes at the side. It's fine since you did, but it would be and is problematic, like 卷152 translates to vol./volume 152 instead of "roll". I suggest to change back to the original Chinese, what do you think? --Huang (talk) 14:16, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

You're mistaken. I did not translate the footnotes, User:LlywelynII did. Using Chinese footnotes is fine, but the title of the quoted work should be translated, and I think that point was raised in the GA review. So I think LlywelynII's work is fine. But I do agree that 卷 should be translated to volume instead of roll. Cheers, -Zanhe (talk) 19:15, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

Using Chinese footnotes is not fine: You can use foreign sources if there is no English version (or in any case, no as-good English version) but you should always provide English versions of the names and generally pull and run parallel translation the passages. Thanks for your work, but that page needs far more work than I did.

I think some of the citation templates have built-in fields for the translated names and passages as well. You can use whichever format—e.g., putting the page number at the end—but you should note the language, which is obvious to you but not necessarily other editors, and include (at the very least) pinyin parallel text. Never italicize 汉字 but usually italicize the pinyin. If you aren't sure about English translations, you can talk to the people at the Language Reference Desk.

That said, if I mistranslated a term, sure, fix that. One of the problems of not translating things yourself is having other editors misunderstand them via Google Translate or completely remove them altogether per USEENGLISH. — LlywelynII 23:12, 3 December 2013 (UTC)
