Population

[edit]

What is the population of the town? Badagnani 15:05, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

According to Google Translate and my limited knowledge of Chinese characters, the Chinese article gives a total population of 133,000 people. 132.178.174.126 (talk) 18:11, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merge proposal

[edit]

I prefer the title E-waste village, because down the tract may be some other villages pop up, then we no need to change again. Arilang talk 13:10, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support No other info has been added to warrant keeping such article. Not a crystal ball and all that. If and when more information does come to light, we can create E-waste village as a full title then. It's also not a very good name, since Guiyu is patently not a village. --PalaceGuard008 (Talk) 00:49, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Internet video

[edit]

If editors care to watch all these video links, then we can all see the long term or permanent problems caused by these E-waste to the whole world, not confined only in China. Arilang talk 02:30, 21 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Current state of articles

[edit]

Well, E-waste village seems to have been developed beyond contents only about Guiyu. My preference would now be to let it stand - provided that the former can be wikified and referenced properly!

Aside: what was the point of all those youtube links? --PalaceGuard008 (Talk) 00:36, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

To answer the comment:what was the point of all those youtube links?, well, "A picture say a thousand words", a video would say a million words? Arilang talk 17:42, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
They look almost like propaganda. Youtube is not a reliable source. What relevance did they have to the merger proposal? Or did you intend them as sources for the article? --PalaceGuard008 (Talk) 02:22, 25 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Since I split out Electronic waste in Guiyu the merge proposal is now redundant. It is an important and notable issue and therefore deserves its own article. As it was it gave the Guiyu to much of a bias to the e-waste issue. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 21:25, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Guiyu was featured in an episode of "CSI:NY," specifically, the episode "Green Piece." I do not know of any other mentions of this city in popular media, but this should be awfully interesting to us anyway. Sean 0000001 (talk) 07:25, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
