Comments

This is an interesting article on a topic wholly new to me, and I would like to see it at GA. To get there, however, it requires much fuller citation: every paragraph needs a suitable source (currently 13 out of 22 seem to be wholly uncited), and 13 of the existing 16 sources are cited only in Chinese (they should have translated titles, authors, dates, and publishers at least). Another immediate point is that some of the image galleries, specially the one just named 'Gallery', seem somewhat indiscriminate, with far too many images at best only weakly connected to the text. Rather than issue a quick-fail at this stage I'd like to hear how you plan to improve the article; I'm willing to provide review effort if you are prepared to commit to the substantial work needed to bring this up to Good Article standard.

Ya i did notice that there are many citations missing, i will work on fixing that as soon as possible, as for the images i'll see if we could get any better ones . User:Metro man 27 (talk)

Many thanks. On the images, they mainly need slimming down as there are just too many. Chiswick Chap (talk) 14:20, 11 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've put the article on hold until the 20th of April, and expect to have seen progress by then. Chiswick Chap (talk) 14:12, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello again, I've gotten rid of many of the images as most of them were of the same thing just a different view. Ill continue working on the links to have it ready within 7 days. User:Metro man 27 (talk)

Many thanks. Chiswick Chap (talk) 14:41, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm really sorry but with no sign of progress on the many citations, we may as well call this one off. If you wish to restart, all you need to do is to fill in the missing citations, resubmit, and give me a ping, and I'll take another look. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 13:00, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ya sorry as i am in school i haven't had much time recently. Once i have more time i'll work on it again. User:Metro man 27 (talk)
