Add Atheism info box to all atheism related talk pages (use {{WikiProject Atheism}} or see
info box)
Ensure atheism-related articles are members of
Atheism by checking whether [[Category:Atheism]] has been added to atheism-related articles – and, where it hasn't, adding it.
Try to expand stubs. Ideas and theories about life, however, are prone to generating
neologisms, so some stubs may be suitable for deletion (see
deletion process).
State atheism needs a reassessment of its Importance level, as it has little to do with atheism and is instead an article about anti-theist/anti-religious actions of governments.

Not for nothing
but the first edits on the page were in American English. Was there a discussion about why Mao had notably closer ties to the United Kingdom somewhere in the textwall archives? or is this something we should remove from the talk page banners and fix when someone has a mind to? —

English was the sole official language of Hong Kong until 1978, and remains an official language in Hong Kong — a territory ceded directly to China by the UK only a few decades ago.
Unsurprisingly, HK English is far closer to the English spoken in England than the English spoken in America.

Wrong age of Luo Yixiu
The article states:
Luo was locally disgraced and died in 1910 at 21 years old.
According to
/info/en/?search=Luo_Yixiu, she was 20 when she died (if you take a look at her birth and death dates).
I can't change it due to page protection, but maybe someone else can.

Incorrect year on Mao's infobox portrait?
The caption reads "Mao in 1959" but the image on Wikimedia Commons says "Mao Zedong 1963", so which year is it? 1959 or 1963? If 1959 is incorrect, please switch it over to 1963, and vice-versa if 1963 is incorrect.
