Hi, I think you are misunderstanding the purpose of the Koh (surname) article and the list of Chinese surnames there. There are two different kinds of surname articles in Wikipedia:
The purpose of the Koh (surname) article is to list different Chinese characters (and non-Chinese surnames like the Yugoslav surname) which are spelled Koh in English, and the people who actually spell their names as Koh in English. There are lots of Chinese surnames which are sometimes spelled "Koh" in English: not just 許, but also 高, 顧, 古, 柯, etc. Each of those surnames has various spellings in Hokkien, Cantonese, Mandarin, Korean, Vietnamese, etc., Each of those surnames also has their own articles which list the other possible pronunciations of that surname. We don't need to duplicate that level of detail at the Koh (surname). Regards, 61.239.39.90 ( talk) 02:21, 5 July 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm
Hey man im josh. I noticed that you made a change to an article,
Phạm, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to
include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on
