Talk:Constitution of the Republic of China

message: I segregated the introduction with the historical background. Though the communist party would probably object this constitution even without reason, CPC still have the legitimate reasons by challenging the legaility of the members of the National Assembly. Thus, I partially reverted that back. The un-democratic process of selecting the Taiwanese delegates was also an important footage of the history and also the argument on the legitimacy of this constitution over Taiwan. Thus I added this piece of information back along with the photos of them. Please let me know if there is any better way to put them together. Thank you.Mababa 07:32, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)

"Until October 1946 it was the prerogative of the Central Government in Nanking to select representatives from Taiwan for the National Assembly." ------ Dispatch No.25 from the American Consulate Taipei (Taihoku) to the U.S. Ambassador in Nanking, November 1, 1946, p. 46.
I think the evidence directs to the government, not the party. It was the ROC government deliberately failed to establish the legitimacy of these Taiwanese National Assembly member to represent the Taiwanese people, not the fault of the party. We do not know what is the role of the KMT party in this process, even though Cho Enlai criticized the rest of the National Assembly members to be chosen by the KMT party. I would suggest that we attribute it to the government.Mababa 04:16, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: if it's the government, then use the term "ROC government". "KMT regime" is ambiguous and not neutral. --Jiang 04:29, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  The name is the Constitution of the Republic of China 

message: Why is the area governed by the constitution so laboriously listed in the first paragraph?  Why start off with something more informative and introductory like "The Constitution of the Republic of China is the governing document for the Republic of China.  It was written in 1947 in for the Republic of China when it was attempting to govern China." Then say somthing about how it was rarely or never fully implemented due to the Chiang dictatorship, and due to the difficulty of applying a document written for China to a small country like Taiwan. Then point out that in recent years it has been modified to fit Taiwan's recent change to democracy.  That would make a lot more sense than listing territories.
I'm not a good writer, but if no one else will make the changes I'll try to. Readin (talk) 01:45, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

message: The content section is very small.  I came to this page hoping to learn how the ROC Constitution says the government is supposed to work, but didn't learn much about that.  Does anyone know enough about the constitution to provide more details? Readin (talk) 00:56, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

"Constitution of Taiwan" is used in various sources
. Following Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Lead_section#Alternative_names it should usually be mentioned in the beginning of the article.
Also according to Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Lead_section#First_sentence, the first sentence should tell the nonspecialist reader what or who the subject is in plain English. However, a nonspecialist might struggle understanding that the Republic of China is not the commonly known "China" but "Taiwan" instead, as this is very conterintuitive. The current article does not make it clear that this article is about the current constitution of Taiwan, which can be easily clarified through my proposed changes. In the current version, a reader can only indirectly infer it from the history discription in the third paragraph, which is not clear and concise. --2603:8080:1300:664B:9C86:4939:83A7:E4B5 (talk) 20:34, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
