thread_title: GA passed

message: Based on changes that have been made to this article since its G.A. review, I am unfortunately going to have to delist it.  The following concern has arisen and needs to be addressed:
*The section titled "Yale system" has substancially changed and the additions have been tagged as unreferenced with {fact} tags. See dif between reviewed and current versions:   This seems to indicate to me that the article now fails the referencing and stability requirements as spelled out in WP:WIAGA.
There are a few options on how to deal with this:
*If you think this article, in its current state, should not have been delisted, please go to Good Article/Review and request that others look at the article in the state it is in, and vote on the decision to delist.
*If you think the article can be improved back to GA status, do so and then renominate it at Good Article Candidates for someone to review it again.
If you have any questions or concerns about this, please see me at my talk page.  --Jayron32|talk|contribs 01:23, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Gwoyeu Romatzyh (information) 

message: I think it would be nice to have a table in the article, with selected chinese words and phrases romanized by each of the discussed systems (at least, where it's possible; it might not be with the postal system)
I would do this myself, but don't know enough about chinese, or any of these systems, to do so. 68.13.167.236 01:57, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Comparison? 

message: I've been looking for - but haven't found on WP - any kind of list or info on the current names of Chinese cities that were formerly known by either another or a Westernized name. For example, most people now know that Peking "became" Beijing. But understanding that Guangzhou was formerly known as Canton, or looking up what "happened" to Amoy requires seeking out individual places. Nothing wrong with that in most cases but I do think a list of such would be helpful, particularly in linking historical knowledge and awareness with contemporary China. Anyone have an idea who or how would be the best to go about this? Thanks. Plutonium27 (talk) 12:12, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  City names 

message: So.... I came looking to see what the most (more) widely used romanization systems for Cantonese are, and lo! there's almost nothing on non-Mandarin dialects.  I think the article is off to a good start, but either needs to be renamed "Romanization of Mandarin Chinese", or discuss other dialects as well.  Making separate pages for the romanization of every single language group (when individual systems already have individual pages) is probably overkill.  I strongly feel that there should be at least a section discussing the dominant systems for each major dialects (or perhaps why there isn't one).

replies: text: I removed "Romanization of Mandarin" from the lead sentence, but the above comment remains pertinent: the article does list romanization systems for other Chinese dialects and languages in the info box, but needs to systematically deal with them in the article, even if only with links to "Main Article." ch (talk) 04:09, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

I greatly appreciate the hard work that went into gathering them, and I also appreciate the labeling, but at least one was dead, some were to scholarship more than a century old, and some were OK but not as good as recent synthetic secondary works as required by WP:Reliable sources. ch (talk) 04:16, 10 June 2013 (UTC)
