[edit]

The part about the Ming era eunuch is inaccurate. The dates are way off--not even in the Ming.

Wang Zhen ( the eunuch )

[edit]

It is incorrect, it credits Wang Zhen with the worlds first Wooden block printing process. However,

"The Míng Dynasty (Chinese: 明朝; pinyin: Míng Cháo) was the ruling dynasty of China from 1368 to 1644."

yet the Korean article says, "The world's first metal movable type was developed in Korea in 1232." I also have a source which credits Korean Kingdom of Silla the inventor of wooden block printing.[1]
