... that the #VivaTaiwan campaign started when a letter to Brazilian parliamentarians by the Chinese Embassy was leaked online? Source: [1]

Reviewed: [[]]

Moved to mainspace by SignificantPBD (talk). Self-nominated at 21:41, 2 June 2020 (UTC).[reply]

Article is new enough (created May 27, nominated June 2), long enough (2,800 chars), neutral (I removed the word "mouthpiece" though), cites sources, and appears free of plagiarism. The one Earwig hit is a properly cited quote. I am concerned that the article may not meet WP:LASTING, but not concerned enough to nominate the article for deletion. Hook is short enough, interesting, and cited. No QPQ necessary (first nomination). No image. AGF tick because of non-English sources. 我的汉语不太好.

Chinese response[edit]

The source used is a tabloid source, is that viable? I think given the unbalanced presence or more or less direct quotation in that section, the Chinese response section's way longer than it needs to be. Balle010 (talk) 15:26, 18 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Global Times is an obviously biased source, but it is a mouthpiece of the Communist Party of China which gives it an official status. The Chinese response section may look comparatively longer, but that it because I cannot interpret much of Taiwanese and Brazilian news articles due to my lack of knowledge in Mandarin and Portuguese. It will be great if someone familiar with these languages can add more content to this article in order to make it more balanced. SignificantPBD (talk) 15:40, 18 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
