Li Chun or Lichun?

The current article on the solar term is titled Lichun, while Li Chun (different tones) leads to Junjun, a Chinese-born signer in Morning Musume, a Japanese promotion. I'm thinking of moving Egg of Li Chun to Egg of Lichun but don't know if this is proper. --Kakurady (talk) 01:37, 27 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It is.

Ideally, though, you'd use Google books, ngrams, or scholar to find out what the general scholarly consensus is for this thing's English common name. I'll go see. —

Chinese "sources"

The Secret Kaleidoscope and Know What Heaven Knows are from the original Life article, not Gardner (fixed), but they don't seem to exist at all on the internet except at this article and that one. The original reporter probably copied someone's 放屁 or (badly) mistranslated something real. Either way, we should find out what's going on and patch that up. — $Llywelyn II$ 09:04, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Chinese urban myth

Hm... given the non-existence of these ancient texts and the original Life article crediting the guy starting it with being a single official trying to give the press pool something to do, the whole idea that this practice existed in China before 1945 might be spurious. It'd still be notable, but the Chinese section would need a rewrite. — $Llywelyn II$ 08:09, 7 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

High Importance United States article?

This is listed as a high-importance Wikipedia:Wikiproject United States article. I don't know how it got there. It's not high-importance. Please remove it.2601:640:4080:5960:CCF5:2698:8142:3A5E (talk) 04:01, 12 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

What is Egg Balancing

Shouldn't this article state what Egg balancing is? e.g.: Egg balancing is a traditional Chinese practice, where an Egg / multiple Egg's is ???. It has since been popularized ...

??? being something like: "Putting an edd upright"

Also: what tools, how long, what rules, what purpose (entertainment, contest)

I actually never heard of Egg balancing, and I am going to look it up now, but I wanted to write this while I still had the perspective of someone who does not know. And expected an answer when clicking the link to this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.152.161.35 (talk) 20:44, 31 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
