Young Pioneer Tours

Young Pioneer Tours, a company based in Beijing, was nominated for deletion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Young Pioneer Tours. Would editors look for Chinese sources about the company? Thanks, Cunard (talk) 00:13, 12 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

About Tianxin Pavilion, "十大中国历史文化名楼" - UNESCO links

Hi all,
While editing Tianxin Pavilion, I noticed there was an assertion that it as one of "Ten Famous Chinese Historical and Cultural Towers and Pavilions" / "十大中国历史文化名楼" / and so on.

As far as I can see, the application to have the pavilion listed as a world heritage site has been stalled since 2012.

Appreciate your opinions about this. 澳大利亞的彼得 aka --Shirt58 (talk) 11:23, 8 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You are right. The first ref in Tianxin_Pavilion says

“

"这次活动是主办方提出的一个倡议，至于"申遗"什么时候启动、怎么申报，还要等到名楼年会召开后，经过专家学者论证研究，才能确定。"

The event(applying for world heritage toghter) was an initiative which proposeed by the organizers. As for when “applying for world heritage” was initiated and how to declare it, it was still necessary to wait until the annual meeting of those 'famous building' was held and after the experts and scholars had demonstrated and studied.

”

— 盘点中国十大历史文化名楼_2012-11-26(in Chinese)

As another news 十大名楼集体申遗暂搁浅_2012-11-05(in Chinese) says: "十大名楼集体申遗暂搁浅/The plans to apply for world heritage for the 'ten famous building' have been temporarily shelved", and this news didn't give the reason why they stopped temporarily. After a google search with key word "十大名楼集体申遗/ten famous building applying for world heritage toghter", there is no more news about this matter after November, 2012.

So, I think: they are not the Ten Famous Chinese buildings, They are just prepare to apply for the world heritage. And This plan is terminated permanently.——Woclass (talk) 16:14, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Oneacreland.com

Hello Wikiproject China! I was editing Draft:Oneacreland.com, and I tracked down any possible sources for that draft, short of perusing archive.org, that could be WP:RS, and put them in a list as WP:General references. However I think the sources, and by extension the draft still might not pass muster for ever being worthy of an article. Would you think they are enough to establish any notability? Thanks, Jjjjjjdddddd (talk) 08:51, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ending the system of portals

Hello, there's a proposal to delete all Wikipedia portals. Please see the discussion here. --NaBUru38 (talk) 14:04, 14 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Character representations of names of overseas Chinese referred to as "Cantonese", "Mandarin", etc?

I was just skimming our article on Allan Fung, and noticed that it includes a representation of his Chinese name in Chinese characters, with no accompanying romanization for his Chinese given name (obviously his family name is "Fung", but "偉傑" doesn't look like a retrofit transcription of the English name "Allan").

Obviously I think the Chinese name, if it can be sourced, should be accompanied by one or more appropriate transcriptions, and if he identifies with a Cantonese-speaking community then it should be Cantonese, but that would involve research and possible BLP concerns. I was rather considering just making the technical fix of referring to his Chinese name as being "Chinese" rather than specifically Cantonese, when there is apparently nothing specifically Cantonese about the name that is there now, but decided to ask here first.

Thoughts? Has this come up before?

I see that the lead has his name as "Allan Wai-Ket Fung", which is an adequate Cantonese transliteration of 偉傑. I agree on all other points, and there should be no reason to call written characters Cantonese for the most part, and definitely not in this case. _dk (talk) 02:27, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
