Chinese name of the street

[edit]

Lovely article! But I've ventured to remove a paragraph discussing the character 利 in the name of the street. The Chinese namer of the street probably did not take the final "e" as a "sounding vowel". It is only natural to transliterate /l/ as 利. Compare the case of Peel Street. By the way, using forum as a source is not really encouraged on Wikipedia.--K.C. Tang 02:21, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I would not take that as just a "forum post", since the post is kind of news released by administrators... or am I wrong? --Deryck C. 04:46, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
it's certainly not "news", just someone asked the admin a question and the admin tried to answer it... anyway the admin seems not familiar with transliteration... Cheers.:)--K.C. Tang 02:17, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
