Overall: @Toadboy123: Good article. QPQ needed. Earwig does report what looks to be possible WP:CLOP that I would like explained. Also, the article doesn't exactly state that political pressure from China was the cause of the downgrading. Onegreatjoke (talk) 22:03, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

@Onegreatjoke: I have updated the article to state the reasoning of the downgrading which seems to be that of economic reasons rather than that of political pressure. And also, could you let me know which part of the article has WP:CLOP issue? Toadboy123 (talk) 02:06, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

@Toadboy123: See, [1]. Onegreatjoke (talk) 16:10, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

@Onegreatjoke: I have made additional edits and the tool states its only 10.7% (violation unlikely). Is the article all clear for DYK so that I can now proceed QPQ? - Toadboy123 (talk) 17:14, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

@Toadboy123: Looks good now. Though, Alt1 doesn't seem to work as a hook now considering your new changes. Onegreatjoke (talk) 22:41, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

@Onegreatjoke: I agree that we can go for the first hook I stated since ALT1 won't work after my edits. Regarding QPQ, I have completed it. (Template:Did you know nominations/Wu Xiaoyan) - Toadboy123 (talk) 04:26, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

@Onegreatjoke and Toadboy123: Unless I'm missing something, I'm not sure how this qualifies as interesting to a wider audience... ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 14:37, 11 August 2023 (UTC)

@AirshipJungleman29: Due to One China policy dictating that countries can't have official diplomatic relations with ROC and how Latvia went on with the establishment of official Taiwanese diplomatic office (consulate) while still maintaining relations with China seems interesting. - Toadboy123 (talk) 09:15, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
