Talk:Five-year plans of China

message: * Would this be more useful if the goals were sorted in reverse, oldest first? (User:StephenWeber)
* Current article has quite a bit of commentary, especially for the First goals. (User:StephenWeber)
Seems positively skewed, especially the discussion of the Great Leap Forward.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.247.185.88 (talk) 13:02, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

message: Under the 9th FYP, we have this: "Its goals included capping population growth at 300 million," which is silly. The footnote, moreover, refers to a book by Pan Letian about the 1958-62 period. Something is very wrong here! DOR (HK) (talk) 07:03, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

message: * Five-year plans of China back to Five-Year Plans of China
Just for consistencies sake, on the dab page Five-year plans, all entries except China now have "Five-Year Plans ...." (Y & P capitalised) in the title. I moved a 'redirect to section' for Ethiopia to achieve the same effect. This is a much more prominent page, hence bringing it to talk for consensus. 
Now I have found out that the page was moved from that title 2010 . Opinions? - 220 of Borg 05:09, 18 June 2015 (UTC)

message: I propose adding data on costs and benefits on China's more recent Five-year Plans from the Oxford China Study. Please note I am a co-author of the cited publication. I therefore kindly suggest that another editor takes a look at my proposed edit to check and verify that it’s okay and to execute it if it is. If it is not okay, kindly let me know how I can improve it, many thanks.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Atifansar (talk • contribs) 19:26, 16 December 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: The edit-request template and proposed text should have been placed here instead of in the article. However, since nobody has objected to the addition itself in the couple of weeks it‘s been up, I’m leaving it in. Not being sufficiently conversant with the subject matter, I’ve put the template here to keep the page in the relevant category, for review by someone who is.—Odysseus1479 21:05, 31 December 2016 (UTC)
replies: text:   As Odysseus1479 already stated, you should've requested the edit on the talk page. Nevertheless, I've had a look and it's all fine. Thanks for your contribution! st170e 21:43, 1 January 2017 (UTC)

text: thanks for bringing this to light. I was under the impression that this was a published piece of work by Oxford. In that case, I'd recommend this edit request be declined until further independent sources come to light, which should be provided by . --st170e 13:15, 3 January 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not exactly sure if it varies between different subjects, but shouldn't a single study, even if it is an independent review, not be given so much "space" in the article? Regards, VB00 (talk) 13:18, 3 January 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree; I originally thought it was published, but a research paper can't be used as a single source on Wikipedia, especially for the length as you've just mentioned. The editor in question may have good intentions, but additional verification is needed. st170e 13:38, 3 January 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  Although the cited link below goes to the SSRN site, the published version from the Oxford Review of Economic Policy may be found at . I certainly would not have left the content in if it hadn’t been apparently peer-reviewed.—Odysseus1479 20:38, 3 January 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:   This is getting confusing now. The study is from Oxford's Saïd Business School, although it is unclear which position the authors occupy (students/professors) from the brief descriptions on the journal page. If it can be established that the study is in fact reliable, it should at least be compressed into the approximate size of the first proposed paragraph. Regards, VB00 (talk) 18:22, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Right, so it appears that the authors are in fact faculty members, however, the proposed edit is an introduction of another whole section, and without other references provided to back it up, such an addition cannot be done. If the request is to be accepted, the whole section will have to be based on multiple sources to back up the claims. Closing request. Regards, VB00 (talk) 12:22, 10 January 2017 (UTC)

message: A move to Five-year plans of the Communist Party of China is proposed. 
I am not so convinced and believe the idea merits discussion first. 
The proposed page title is less WP:concise. I am not so sure "...of [CPC/CCP]" is a common name either. One view is that "...of party" although longer is more WP:precise. I am also not so convinced of this, especially as it raises the contention of whether the correct rendering in English is Communist Party of China or Chinese Communist Party. I am someone who concludes that CPC is more correct, but in any case it strikes me as good to avoid the CPC/CCP article naming contentions unless there is more meaningful benefit. 
I am open-minded on the issue but tend to think the article name should stay as is. If the consensus is ultimately to change it to "...of [party]," I would strongly favor starting fresh with the correct CPC rendering. JArthur1984 (talk) 14:00, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: As I think further on this, another reason the proposed name may be less precise is that FYPs are drafted by the CPC Central Committee but approved and further detailed by the NPC. Like many aspects of Chinese governance, they are a mixed party-state process. JArthur1984 (talk) 14:36, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
