Recent history
[edit]- Why not "Recent History" or "Modern Period" or "Post Cold-War"? It's just that I couldn't find the title "Accomplishments" elsewhere in the histories of other countries? The word has conations of great things being achieved, or the title of a resume and not a history. --Lukeisham 01:39, 26 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- You're right, why not? Again, this wasn't my choice of headings. 172 02:26, 26 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Lukeisham, Better? 172 02:32, 26 Apr 2004 (UTC) Yes, sorry to hassle you but being a newbie I didn't want to make the call. --Lukeisham 03:51, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- It was no
hassle .Instead thanks for the help. I'd been bothered by those headings for months as well. Too many users on Wiki think that NPOV means a section on "good things" plus a section on "bad things," rather than just scrapping such judgment calls in favor of a balanced, holistic view and providing multiple contexts. If you find more examples of this crude "supporters versus critics say" conception of NPOV (and you probably will, esp. since you're already attuned to spotting it), please feel free to point them out or fix them on your own. 172 09:58, 27 Apr 2004
Hong Kong Media
[edit]"the news media from Hong Kong... are usually the only media within the PRC that can report the news." What? NPOV is needed I think. Colipon+(T) 21:05, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
Neutrality(?) on "China Today"
[edit]Section sounded like it came from a PRC pamphlet. Got some subtle hints of bias. Is a neutrality template worth meriting? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 199.94.71.107 (talk) 05:14, 15 January 2007 (UTC).
Slightly odd phrasing
[edit]In the Power Transition section: "Wen Jiabao, a geology engineer who spent most of career in China's hinterlands, had never lost his political ground despite being a former ally to disgraced leader Zhao Ziyang." "Political ground"? surely that should be something more like "never lost his political influence"? I think that's what is meant, but I'm not sure so I won't edit it myself. Feel free to add other examples of slightly strange phraseology to be edited, if you notice any. EDIT: found another one. In the Policy Transition section: "The degree of difference between the Hu and Jiang administrations has been of debate." I assume this means something like "the degree of difference... is debatable." WikiReaderer 19:38, 22 October 2007 (UTC) WikiReaderer 19:25, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:China (172).jpg
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/70px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
Image:China (172).jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page. If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Save_Us_229 18:36, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
Image copyright problem with File:8 steps towards sars prevention (retouch).jpg
[edit]The image File:8 steps towards sars prevention (retouch).jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check
- That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
- That this article is linked to from the image description page.
