Structure

Infobox

• Coordinates: Use precision to the nearest second for towns and townships and tenth of a second for subdistricts.
• Pushpin map: Use the provincial map if possible for towns and townships, e.g. "China Shandong". For subdistricts, a map of the district or the city would be preferred.
• Specific area, population, postal code and area code information can be found in the District-level government website or by navigating through xzqh.org. If xzqh.org does not provide the information, you definitely will need to go to the government website.

Lede

• Language: Unless there is a good reason not to, Chinese, using the ZH-template, must be included in parentheses in the first sentence. This is in accordance with WP:MOS-ZH.
• Geographical information
  • For subdistricts, you ought to mention, in the first sentence, the district or county-level city the article is in.
  • For towns, the format "X is a town in D-cardinal-direction S-provincial-level-division, R-region of China" is preferred but you are free to choose whatever you want
  • For townships, in addition to the sentence structure used for towns above, it would be preferred if you could add the county-level division

Templates

Templates for each county-level division will need to be created; they should include a blanket list of the township-level divisions.
