Talk:Jan Wong

message: It is more convenient for most of our readers if you link to references in English. Fred Bauder 12:29, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Who is this addressed to, Fred? I have added one in English and Montrealais one in French. --Liberlogos 12:37, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Obviously to whoever used the source in French. Still a good source, though. Fred Bauder 12:42, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I thought it was useful as a primary source (i.e. an article directed at Wong). - Montréalais 06:04, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Sources

message: The user who added the NPOV template did not explain the reasons here and the arguments of User:64.228.248.186 have here been refuted. Do we remove the NPOV template? What is NPOV in the article? --Liberlogos 06:29, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I have removed the unsourced material on Tibet and the POV template. Fred Bauder 10:50, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Good. About Tibet, the material can be left with a 'sources required' banner-template, so we give it a chance to be proven or disproven. --Liberlogos 19:49, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: No, unsourced negative material must be removed from biographies of living persons; removal is exempt from 3RR. Fred Bauder 21:31, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  NPOV 

message: I keep hearing from my chinese professor that because of her critical writing on China, she is now banned from entry there. Is this a fact? I find it interesting, and useful in the whole issue of China's censorship and lack of freedom of the press. 74.99.17.52 13:29, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Hard to say. She has been back but I think she may have not disclosed the whole story when she was admitted. (Probably just used her married name). You certainly won't find Red China Blues in most libraries there. I think her husband has looked at the articles. He might respond to you if he sees this. Fred Bauder 13:46, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Banned in China 

message: "Not being one to stick to her ideals" strikes me as POV. Instead of "Wong became tired of Party ideology and returned to Canada from Beijing," how about: "After living a few more years in China, Wong left earlier ideals behind and returned to Canada."? ch (talk) 19:04, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Change Ideals? 

message: There was no mention of Wong's book A Comrade Lost and Found: A Beijing Memoir listed with her published works.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.178.16.121 (talk) 15:41, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Published Works 

message: "However, in pushing the envelope on denunciation, Wong had earned a reputation for gratuitous and opportunistic nastiness in pursuit of copy.[7]"
How does a single opinion piece constitute a reputation? Kinsella never says she has a reputation, he tries to give her one.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.192.16.187 (talk) 18:16, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reputation 

message: If it is appropriate to mention this, why not her husband and sons, if not necessarily by name and present circumstances? She does mention them in past columns, and collection of them, after all, so it hardly seems an intrusion. Masalai (talk) 06:15, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  "She is the daughter of Montreal businessman Bill Wong...."
