*Support per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC.  Wang Dan the dissident seems to dominate a google search; Wang Dan (dissident) gets more incoming links than Wang Dan (triathlete) and Wang Dan (swimmer) combined; Wang Dan (dissident) gets more than 1,000 pageviews per month (e.g. March 2009); Wang Dan (triathlete) gets 100 or less per month (e.g. March 2009), and when Wang Dan (swimmer) was Wang Dan (swimming) it also got 100 or less pageviews per month (e.g. March 2009).  The disambig page currently at Wang Dan should move to Wang Dan (disambiguation).  Baileypalblue (talk) 01:04, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

message: on this blog http://blog.taiwan-guide.org/2009/05/taiwanese-should-support-democracy-in-china/ they say that Wang Dan is teaching in Taiwan, not a resident of the US98.246.146.24 (talk) 16:35, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  teaching in Taiwan 

message: Currently there's an external link to a Wang Dan fan page on Facebook.  The page includes the statement in English that it is "A page setted up by a girl who likes and appericiate Wang Dan for long long time", so we know it's not official.  Recently someone edited the article to include a link to what appears to be Wang Dan's personal Facebook profile (e.g. not their fan page).  This edit got robo-reverted, and I was considering whether or not to restore it...after thinking about it, I'm not sure there should be any Facebook link at all.
*Is it appropriate to link to an unofficial fan listing on Facebook?
*Alternatively, is it appropriate to link to someone's personal Facebook profile?
My instinct is "no" on both... what do others think? Joren (talk) 03:13, 11 September 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Is linking to Facebook pages appropriate?

message: An anonymous editor added a request for a photo.  I agree... do we have any pictures of Wang Dan during the Tiananmen Square protests that we can use?  Joren (talk) 07:39, 28 December 2009 (UTC)

message: Wikileaks board membership needs verification - if you read the Wikileaks article, Mother Jones magazine says that Wikileaks listed some people on their board without permission. Nothing specific about Wang Dan. The link from Wikileaks to the page with their board info didn't work for me, but maybe it requires a login.--Larrybob (talk) 15:44, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

message: Not that I have anything against them, but isn't it worth mentioning that Wang Dan is a homosexual, and was expelled from "中國人權理事會" for it?

Don't know if it's legitimate, but here you go.

thread_title:  Sexual orientation 

message: IN the text we can read:
"While teaching a class in November 2010, a woman carrying a knife entered the lecture intending to stab Wang. He was able to remove the knife from the woman before she had a chance to stab him. He believes “this was the first time he faced what looked like an attempt on his life.” The woman had allegedly been stalking Wang for three years.[11]" But we have no information in the text about the backgronund of the women who tried to stab him (expect that she was after him for several years). Who is this women? Was there a lwasuit? Is she from mainland? or Taiwan. I think this is an important information. ++--84.73.123.149 (talk) 20:03, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
