Bailian Xijiao Shopping Mall: TMXX0818 ( talk ) 04:49, 12 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Found a few sources in Chinese, Bailian seems to be a major company operating many malls, department store chains and other retail chains, probably worth an article.  I am always so reluctant to see lack of coverage in English Wikipedia because it's not covered in English, it's important to be inclusive where possible as English doesn't just belong to the US, UK, India etc but to the world as the world's unifying language of communication.  Keizers ( talk ) 10:50, 12 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm going to change this to an article about the company.  Definitely notable with sources.
