== Recent China dabs == |
|||
'''Rationale''' For the most part, I've used the following criteria: |
|||
*If either the political entity or the georaphic region are the point of reference prior to 1912, the link should be "[[China]]." |
|||
*If the political entity is the reference between 1912 and 1949, then it is "[[Republic of China]]" (e.g. "China was involved in World War II.") |
|||
*If the political entity is the reference since 1949, it should be "[[People's Republic of China]]" (e.g. "China is a member of the WTO.") |
|||
*If the geographic entity is the reference since 1912, it should be either "[[mainland China]]" or the "[[People's Republic of China]]" depending on the context. For instance, if someone was born in XXX province, that province is a constituent of the PRC, not of mainland China ''per se'' (that is to say, there is nothing about the geographic features of East Asia that delimit Gansu. Alternately, if persons are trying to say that there was an earthquake in China in 1998, they probably don't mean the [[Free Area of the Republic of China]], which is itself a geographic region, but the territory administered by the PRC (this is especially the case if someone writes "an earthquake happened in 1998 in [[Bejing]], [[China]];" he is not refering to the Beijing that existed in ancient imperial China, but the capital of the modern state of the PRC.) |
|||
Does that make sense? My concern is that persons are writing Wikipedia articles intending to discuss the modern political entity(ies), but directed readers to a non-existent empire or the large cultural group instead. -[[User:Koavf|Justin (koavf)]]·[[User talk:Koavf|T]]·[[Special:Contributions/Koavf|C]]·[[Special:Emailuser/Koavf|M]] 15:03, 31 October 2006 (UTC) |
|||
:'''Responding here''' hope that works for you. To say that an earthquake happened in "Beijing, China, in 1998" is POV, as it chooses one Chinese state as the legitimate "China." Since what constitutes China is a [[Chinese Civil War|matter of dispute]] in the [[Foreign relations of the Republic of China|international community]], it is innapropriate for Wikipedia to choose a single Chinese state as the "true China." Hence, the article on one of these Chinese states, which is more commonly called "China" in English is at [[People's Republic of China]], and there is a disambiguation at the top of the China article. -[[User:Koavf|Justin (koavf)]]·[[User talk:Koavf|T]]·[[Special:Contributions/Koavf|C]]·[[Special:Emailuser/Koavf|M]] 15:46, 1 November 2006 (UTC) |
|||
::'''POV and PRC''' To say that an earthquake happened in "Beijing, China, in 1998" ''is'' POV, because the Beijing is only in (that is, administered by) one state: the PRC. To say that ''it'' is China is to say that it is the Chinese state; whereas there are two Chinese states, and Beijing is only in one of them. The status of the PRC ''is'' up to dispute, as there is a rival [[Republic of China|Chinese state]], and several other states and IGO's [[Foreign relations of the Republic of China|recognize it as the legitimate China]]. -[[User:Koavf|Justin (koavf)]]·[[User talk:Koavf|T]]·[[Special:Contributions/Koavf|C]]·[[Special:Emailuser/Koavf|M]] 13:47, 2 November 2006 (UTC) |
|||
:::'''Occupation''' While it may be true that lip service is paid to the notion that the PRC is an occupier, that is only due to an historical accident that will provoke the PRC to invade Taiwan if they are called a separate state. It is clearly the case that the ROC do not actually claim the mainland, even if they have not renounced the claim it. This (painting the POV of the ROC as "PRC is an occupier") is much more of an anachronism than applying the term "mainland China" to pre-1949 territory. Beijing is the capital of one Chinese state, namely, the PRC. -[[User:Koavf|Justin (koavf)]]·[[User talk:Koavf|T]]·[[Special:Contributions/Koavf|C]]·[[Special:Emailuser/Koavf|M]] 19:42, 2 November 2006 (UTC) |
|||
::::'''China(s)''' As for you not personally considering the PRC an occupier, we're on the same page; I never thought that was your personal position. Choosing one Chinese state as ''the'' China is an issue (e.g. the constant prospect of war between the two, the diplomatic back-and-forth in the Third World, competing bids in IGO's, etc.) As you stated "[i]nstead of 'Beijing is a capital of China' the naming conventions dictates 'Beijing is the capital of the People's Republic of China' since we are specifying something political. However, 'China' can be used to refer to a geographical/cultural entity unrelated to politics, as it has been done in the current [[China]] article." Which is, of course, true, and precisely why I tried to disambiguate Chinese political articles from Chinese geographic ones (cf. my use of "mainland China" above.) The statement "Mount Tai is in Shandong province of China" is certainly political, as provinces exist by the virtue of a state to create, merge, and dissolve them. In the case of the PRC, they may have inherited some of these boundaries from imperial China/the ROC, but they have redined their borders and have different conceptions of what constitutes "X province." So, for instance, the official line of the ROC is that "Tibet" includes [[Tannu Tuva]], whereas the PRC neither administers nor claims it. So, if someone refers to the Tibetan Automous Region, they are not referring to the ROC's idea of Tibet, nor the independent (suzerain) kingdom of Tibet, but the district created at the whims of one of the two Chinese states; namely, the PRC. Consequently, it is not the case that the "PRC is totally irrelevant in this picture;" they define all provinces of the Chinese state under their jurisdiction. It is not my contention that "Beijing is in China" is a matter of dispute; it is that ''which'' China it is in must be clarified for the benefit of the reader. My guess would be 90-some% of the articles that make reference to <nowiki>[[China]]</nowiki> since 1949 were written by editors thinking of the Communist state with the red and gold flag, not the ancient empire/civilization/cultural landscape in East Asia. When editors write things like "Such-and-such tank is used in <nowiki>[[China]]</nowiki>," they mean "such-and-such tank is used in the <nowiki>People's Republic of China</nowiki>," correct? -[[User:Koavf|Justin (koavf)]]·[[User talk:Koavf|T]]·[[Special:Contributions/Koavf|C]]·[[Special:Emailuser/Koavf|M]] 04:08, 3 November 2006 (UTC) |

:::::'''Tanks and such''' We're getting somewhere with the examples that I gave (Tibet may have been poor, considering its unique status, but I digress...) That having been said, it would be inconsistent and odd for users to be navigating various geographic regions in "China" (likely PRC, of course), and find that one of them is in [[China]], and another, adjacent to it, containing it, or of the same administrative order, is in the [[People's Republic of China]]. Plus, the tank example may have been too ambiguous: by the word "in" I did not mean "within the territorial borders of." When I say "The XXX tank is used in the United States," what I am likely saying is that the political entity of the United States of America uses such-and-such tank ''in other lands where it is fighting wars'' (unless, of course, it uses the tank within the context of a civil war.) Presently, the PRC is not at war with anyone (except a very cold war with the ROC, of course), so to say that XXX tank is used in the PRC is to say that "if the PRC were at war, it would deploy these tanks," not "these tanks are physically located within the territory administered by the PRC" (although the latter is also true, it is not what is intended to be communicated.) Does that all make sense? -[[User:Koavf|Justin (koavf)]]·[[User talk:Koavf|T]]·[[Special:Contributions/Koavf|C]]·[[Special:Emailuser/Koavf|M]] 15:22, 3 November 2006 (UTC) |

== ROC == |
|||
As per naming convention, One subtle yet important point: Wikipedia treats the Republic of China as a sovereign state with equal status with the People's Republic of China, yet does not address whether they are considered separate nations. Therefore, since the PRC article claims PRC is a country, ROC should be call a country as well. (parallelism and consistency). If both are "states" then we can call both states.--[[User:Certified.Gangsta|Certified.Gangsta]] 06:56, 1 November 2006 (UTC) |

Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Hwtbflinst.jpg]]'''. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the [[copyright]] status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page. |

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{tl|GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the [[GFDL]]. If you believe the media meets the criteria at [[Wikipedia:Fair use]], use a tag such as {{tlp|fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use]].

Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Chen-shui-bian.jpg]]'''. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under [[Wikipedia:Fair use|fair use]], but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our [[Wikipedia:Fair use criteria|first fair use criterion]] in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information.

# Go to [[:Image:Chen-shui-bian.jpg|the image description page]] and edit it to add {{[[Template:Replaceable fair use disputed|Replaceable fair use disputed]]}}, '''without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template'''. |

Jiang, can you block the latest unnamed user with beginning IP 212 to stop editing. He or She is destroying the article by adding (Taiwan) to every ROC or Republic of China. This is not the first time, but many times. Check the user contributions. Also, is there a way to revert easily to the previous edit or do I have to do everythin all over again? Answer here. Thank you. -[[User:Nationalist|Nationalist]] 04:04, 5 January 2007 (UTC) |

Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Reagan Tax.jpg]]'''. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the [[copyright]] status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page. |

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{tl|GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the [[GFDL]].

For the Chien-ming Wang article, people keep removing Republic of China. For example: Tainan, Taiwan, Republic of China. The people keep removing Republic of China. I don't think the outsiders/Americans understand that the ROC is not their definition of China. They think Taiwan by itself is a country. I suggest that you intervene to resolve this dispute please.

Can you help with this jerry guy. He keeps eliminating Republic of China. He is doing POV edits. I think he is pushing the pro-dpp Taiwan independence view.

Hello Jiang, I think your picture on your user page is interesting. Why do you think 台島失福? I think people in Taiwan are a lot happier than people in the PRC!--[[User:Jerrypp772000|Jerrypp772000]] 23:37, 26 January 2007 (UTC) |

::Jiang, I support your view on Mr. Chen Shuibian. [[User:Highshines|Highshines]] 08:28, 27 January 2007 (UTC) |
|||
:Well, I've never said before that China sucks. It's just that I don't think 台島失福 because it's got a democratic government. I've only been to Hong Kong once so I don't know what it's like to live in China. But I'm pretty sure that the man in the picture has never gone to Taiwan.--[[User:Jerrypp772000|Jerrypp772000]] 19:49, 27 January 2007 (UTC) |

::From what I can see, Taiwan's politics is just a HUGE mess. In the news I keep seeing politicians trying to backstab whomever they dislike, and everything is about "If I were the president I would've done a better job than <insert name here>" talk. I don't know a lot about China, but I think one of the reasons that they are so strong is that they do not have as much mess as Taiwan's so-called democratic political system. Even if China have bruteforced with Communism, it was a more organized Communism than Taiwan's intra-warring Democracy. I don't think we should talk about this in Jiang's talk page like a forum, but I just feel the need to say this.

Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Degaulle kennedy.jpg]]'''. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the [[copyright]] status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged. |
|||
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{tl|GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the [[GFDL]]. If you believe the media meets the criteria at [[Wikipedia:Fair use]], use a tag such as {{tlp|fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use]].
