Kudos on at least remembering that East Asia exists and linking the Chinese urban design articles, unlike Theories of urban planning.
Still, the content remains absurdly imbalanced. India doesn't have a separate section; Persia, Islam, and the Middle East don't seem to be mentioned at all; and the Chinese coverage is utterly anemic and lacks any modern discussion, despite the PRC being the leading urban developer on the planet at the moment. In particular, the long history of segmented design in Chinese urban planning is precisely what allowed Chinese lockdowns under covid to be fairly complete lockdowns—nearly all residential communities in China are what the West would consider "gated communities"... which also seems to be lacking here somehow, as are American HOAs. Jiayou, shaguamen! — LlywelynII 16:24, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
