[edit] Untitled
Why are we using pinyin for historical names? This Ta Tsing emperor was known in English as Taukwang. Ta Tsing signed numerous treaties with other countries. The official language was Manchu and the English versions of treaties read "Taokwang". We should not take such a sinocentric approach in historical articles.Alamoana (talk) 06:35, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Court intrigue
Qing dynasty genealogy and other chinese sources state that Daoguang did have an older brother but died very young. Also Daoguang's elderst son died aged 22/23 (1808-1831). User:TYK1986 —Preceding undated comment added 13:13, 11 June 2011 (UTC).
