I see there isn't a single mention of Tsai's Strabismus (斜视). Should I assume that this is another celebrity article being maintained by fans who prefer to filter out such things? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Minlunn ( talk • contribs) 23:34, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
It was very interesting to read about Jolin. However, this wiki article reads like a resume. Since most readers are not looking to employ Jolin -- but rather educate themselves -- maybe a more balanced approach could be taken? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 114.36.230.148 ( talk) 19:21, 29 October 2009 (UTC)
my god, i posted something about the attention she got in the netherlands recently. apparently this is being considered vandalism
could somebody be so kind to explain me why ????
God DAMN could this whole article be LESS NPOV? And please, no-one knows any of these songs by their English pseudo-names - they're generally not even translated by HER, so unless the translations are official, please kindly shove them up your ass.-- 203.73.105.51 18:58, 25 September 2005 (UTC) (PS: Her English isn't half as hot as she thinks. Her book sucked shit and had WAY too many grammatical mistakes for an English major.)
I think that everyone will agree that Jolin's English Diary Book is a good English-teaching book which can give everyone a good way of learning English, Can you tell me why do you have to keep changing the book's introduction to lots of insulted words? If you keep doing this, Jolin's fans will never forgive you. (An English Teaching book that teaches a way of learning English-keeping a diary. There are 24 example diaries which are selected in Jolin's real personal diary book.) I think the words above are a good introduction of this book. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Drickchen ( talk • contribs) .
What sort of category is "Scandal boyfriend"? Do we expect her to have more "scandal boyfriends"? Please, Wikipedia's an encyclopedia, not a trivial celebrity site. -- Yu Ninjie 11:50, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)
I moved the text about Jay to a picture caption. I also got rid of the text "scandal boyfriend". 好了吗? -- Ce garcon 16:42, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)
God damnit. If you're going to put something up that's 3 paragraphs long, make sure not to make a mockery out of the english language, alright?
I am adding back the external links section, seeing as decent external links can provide a good source of information to those who want to learn more about the topic covered. Please do not remove them. -- Haley 00:32, 6 August 2006 (UTC)Haley de Lioncourt
Right now, the external links are a bunch of links to Youtube videos of Jolin's music videos remixed by some guy called "Nathan Jay." Seems like shameless promotion, so I have changed them back to some more informative links. Thank you. - Lauren 68.112.132.116 18:26, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
I think we should remove duplicated information and non-encyclopedic trivia like favourites. Monni 16:36, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
I'm a big fan of Jolin, but the tone of this article reads more like a press release or promotional piece than an authoritative article.
The article failed to mention her boob job, which if I remember right, was about 2002 or so and was largely responsible for this airhead's success. (oh, I said "largely"). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.136.163.211 ( talk) 22:50, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
You're right. All I know about her is that she has plastic breasts - from that papparazi photo of her armpit implant scar, so I too am wondering why it doesn't metion that her celebrity is entirely due to her plastic surgery (heck we don't even have to say 'alleged' because mainstream media print this stuff about her all the time) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.47.122.188 ( talk) 14:38, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
This article was automatically assessed because at least one WikiProject had rated the article as start, and the rating on other projects was brought up to start class. BetacommandBot 14:44, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
she is good singer. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 218.95.46.55 ( talk) 20:18, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
Where does the translation 'tricks of love' come from? Surely a better translation would be 36 Stratagies of love, or rather, 'Thirty-Six Stratagems of Love'. Looking at the spelling 愛情36計 I would assume it's a play on the name of the famous 36計 Thirty-Six Stratagems. Number36 ( talk) 03:45, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
First, I know nothing about this person, whether they are simple or controversial. But in most entertainment figures biographies, there is at least a short paragraph that talks about their personal life (relationships, kids, hobbies, charities they support, hobbies, country where they live, etc.) but this entry reads more like a background sheet on record releases and tour dates.
There must be more to her life than her career. Again, I know nothing about her and I don't think Wikipedia is the place for tabloid celebrity gossip. But I read biographies to get a sense of the person, not just a list of songs they've released. After reading this, all I can tell about this woman is that she is well-known for her dancing. She must have a bio section on her personal website with some of the basic info, doesn't she? Newjerseyliz ( talk) 17:03, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
Something should be in this article about "We're All Different, Yet the Same" which has a lesbian marriage theme, and was thus banned from Singapore's airwaves, both radio and television. Very wide commentary on this issue:
There's enough coverage of this song to give it its own article: " We're All Different, Yet the Same". Binksternet ( talk) 16:59, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
Basically I don't think this matter is related to Tsai's life and career, please explain to me why you think it should be at here. Leehsiao ( talk) 14:52, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
Those external links you deleted are all official Tsai's account, please explain to me why you think it should be deleted. Leehsiao ( talk) 14:53, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

The introduction which says she popularised pop music in "Greater China" needs to be changed or removed.
Whilst I understand that the definition for Greater China can be kept as it is in its separate entry, putting here is not correct. Implying that Taiwan, or in fact anywhere else outside of China, is part of "Greater China", is insulting, offensive and untrue. It is better to say she popularised pop music in the Chinese Speaking World.
