Chang Tso-linZhang Zuolin – The page was moved recently without discussion or consensus. The move contradicts WP:COMMONNAME, which is why the page was moved from "Chang Tsolin" to "Zhang Zuolin" in 2005. – Ferox Seneca (talk) 00:46, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment there's no discussion on the talk page, nor did the 2005 edit comment say anything about being the common name. Being a historical figure during the Republican Era, one would think he would be frequently appearing using the Wade-Giles version, as the internationalism of the world during this era was greater. -- 65.94.171.225 (talk) 04:37, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

How is Wade-Giles is more accurate? Every WG transliteration can be converted to pinyin and vice versa. There is no difference in accuracy. Pinyin has been an ISO standard since the 1980s, and most modern scholarly works (since the 1990s) use pinyin. -Zanhe (talk) 03:43, 10 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
