Another author had revised the lede to portray Ting as only being a U.S. citizen. The intro previously referred to him as 'Taiwanese American'. However from his bio section, Ting apparently resided full time in Taiwan until his entered a U.S. university at age 20, likely because he had dual citizenship.
Does anyone have citations for his citizenship status? I'd be surprised if he wasn't, in fact, a dual U.S.-Taiwanese citizen. Best: HarryZilber ( talk) 17:49, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
USA does not recognise dual citizenships.

I found Ting's Nobel speech in translation and believe this sentence at the end of the Nobel Prize section of this article to be in error:
Ting emphasized that the importance of experimental work equals that of theoretical work. (citation needed)
I started out expecting to provide a citation and remove the tag, but it now looks like someone with more physics expertise than I have needs to rewrite the sentence, or just delete it.
On the second page of the translation (the page numbered 317 in the pdf) Ting comments on the congruence of the measured g-factor anomaly of the muon with the calculated value, and ends the comparison with the comment, "a most fantastic achievement of experiment and theory." There are so few other references to theoretical work in the 28-page translation (one in which Ting says, "I do not usually have much confidence in theoretical arguments...") that the conclusion he emphasized the importance of experimental work equals that of theoretical work seems unwarranted/wrong.

Never mind-- got it sorted. Citation now to his banquet speech, not his acceptance speech.

Why is his Chinese name included (in Chinese characters)? This is English Wikipedia, and he was born in Michigan. Magnolia677 ( talk) 00:46, 12 August 2015 (UTC)

In Biography section, I have commented out the country name for Rizhao, a place name in two paragraphs to prevent edit war. For factuality, Rizhao is on mainland China, not in Taiwan, and I presume that was why Dr.Ting's parents fled to Taiwan. Appreciate your insight to make change, or I don't have access to the cited reference. -- Omotecho ( talk) 05:40, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
