POV

Not only does the grammar and logic need to be fixed, but there are too many opinions here. Save that stuff for Wikitravel. dq 17:01, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Name of this article

I'd suggest that "Taihu Lake" is not a correct name of this article. The name Tài Hú literally means "Grand Lake" in Chinese (Tài for "Grand" and Hú for "Lake"). Naming it "Taihu Lake" will cause a redundency in the literal meaning ("Grand Lake Lake" ?).

I'd suggest that "Lake Tai", "Tai Lake", or simply "Taihu", can be appropriate names of this article. --supernorton 05:21, 1 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I concur. dq 18:16, 1 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Average depth

on one end, it says 20 m, and another end says 2 m. Which is it? O_o Hanfresco 07:21, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
