Requested move at Talk:Sino-Xenic pronunciations#Requested move 14 May 2024Does the Laizhou Hong meet GNG?This article is in poor shape and I will try and improve it; however, I'd rather not put much effort into that if it ends up deleted due to lacking notability. I cannot speak Chinese which is what most of the sources appear to be in so I'd like conformation from anyone here that it meets GNG in Chinese sources.

But to my disappointment it only links various sessions of the National People's Congress. I don't think this then serves any purpose for the title it contains. Is someone willing to improve this? Or is a better template available to redirect or merge this? If any of this is not possible, I will move this towards a deletion nomination.

Category:Chinese-language-only video games needs populating with games that are not just from mainland China. It was nominated for deletion as a duplicate of a PRC-only videogame category. -- 65.92.244.143 ( talk) 06:20, 1 June 2024 (UTC) This project is probably more active and should have users able to answer the question. Like I just posted at WPTAIWAN, (a) As noted since 2013, our actual article on the " Republic of China calendar" entirely omits discussion on how dates before 1912 are handled in the system. Presumably, they aren't handled at all and official practice is to just use BCE/CE Julian/Gregorian dating or the old imperial lunisolar eras. However, we currently have nearly every year of human history back to 719 BC tagged with a "Minguo calendar" equivalent using the form "NNNN before ROC" followed by "民前NNNN年". Is that actually based on anything real whatsoever? Is it the right phrasing in both languages? If it's real, how does it handle the Julian/Gregorian conversion? If it ain't, what was the last date officially using the old lunisolar months? (b) Those 4000ish year entries are possibly the most prominent use of this system in the English language but, to the extent it can be figured out, is the actual WP:ENGLISH WP:COMMONNAME of the system "Minguo calendar" like the infobox has, "Republic of China calendar" like our page has (partially based on mistaken parallelism with North Korea), or "ROC era" like Ngram suggests it might be (although also based on lots of discussion of mainland topics during the period 1912–1949)? Whichever one it is, the page and the 4000ish applications of the infobox should both be correct and should both agree. — LlywelynII 20:23, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
Kindly direct your comments to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Years#Chinese dating (WP:BIAS/WP:UNDUE) but our current year-by-year handling of the Chinese calendar is somewhere between amusingly bad and nonsensical misrepresentation. We should fix it. Some solutions are obvious (use imperial era numbering), others will require some consensus building (handling regnal dating before the Han, how to appropriately abbreviate dating by the supposed ascension of the Yellow Emperor, &c.). — LlywelynII 22:23, 5 June 2024 (UTC) (To be moved from The Prehistoric Culture of China shortly). Pretty major topic, was missing until a student of mine translated it from zh wiki just now. Since it is quite important, I am mentioning it here for folks to review and copyedit and so on. Might make for a good WP:DYK perhaps? Piotrus at Hanyang| reply here 08:57, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
