Missing women of China is a widely known phenomenon described in the Wikipedia article. The information provided such as the historical background, education and the emphasis on the one-child policy is very limited. Recent changes altering the one-child policy to a limit of two children needs to be represented and included in the article to modernize it. The article is in need of updated information including further evidence supporting the already introduced topics such as the sex-selective abortion, policies, health and education. Information on contraceptive use in China and preventative pregnancy is something I hope to add to the article, as well as including a section comparing the policies in China with basic female rights. Many topics already included are very broad and basic. I propose to include updated information focusing on the history/background, the effect of policies, sex-ratios, contraceptive use, and women’s basic rights in China.

Hi! I read through your proposed additions to the Missing Women of China. I like how the additions seamlessly blend into the current writing style and then have current information that ties everything into together. The current draft I reviewed didn't have the headlines so I wasn't sure what were actually proposed, but overall I think it would be ok.

I think the sections you have added are looking really good and I think the article looks really good. It is very factual and statistical. With the sections that you are adding, I think they can be linked to other articles and I think you can tie it more to reproductive health. For example, with the second child policy, how do scholars think it will affect the situation? Also, I would do more of a summary of each section within the introduction.
