I move for separating the "Soong Sisters (Movie)" to be its own article. Tryptofeng 19:01, 28 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If there's no objection, I'm going to separate the pages.Tryptofeng 16:55, 25 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I moved the quotes to the section of "cultural materials", because I thought that "一個愛錢、一個愛權、一個愛國" is just a comment, not a provable description. luuva (talk) 18:57, 13 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm going to remove this comment if a citation is not given in a month. This is an article on historical figures, this kind of uncited stereotype is really pointless. 121.6.180.41 (talk) 09:33, 18 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
But this saying is widely known in the Chinese community worldwide. Just because somebody didn't find a citation doesn't mean it's inappropriate (it doesn't matter if it's true) in this article. --131.247.152.4 (talk) 19:57, 11 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
There are numerous quotes of the saying in the published literature. I have added the saying back (with a quote).rm (talk) 01:32, 30 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

星光下的人,

Please read the following excerpt from WP:REF and respect the guideline.

Because this is the English Wikipedia, English-language sources should be used in preference to non-English language sources of equal caliber and content, though the latter are allowed where appropriate. When quoting a source in a different language, please provide both the original-language quotation and an English translation, in the text, in a footnote, or on the talk page as appropriate.

Please do not revert the article until you have done so.

Why were Chinese character versions of the names and slogans removed?

[edit]

This edit by an apparently experienced Wikipedian removed useful data on Chinese characters used in the sisters names and the notable slogan, and there is nothing in the edit summary explaining why this removal took place. Was it simply a mistake, or is there some new Wikipedia policy that we're not going to have data on Chinese characters even in articles about Chinese people? 90.243.139.23 (talk) 08:24, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thank you for your contribution and valuable feedback. I realise that I might have removed the Chinese text along with its Pinyin because it seemed too lengthy for the main text, which in hindsight may not have been the best decision. That said, I believe relocating this information to the Notes section could improve clarity. While I’m not certain if there is an established policy, moving Chinese characters to Notes appears to have become a common practice in recent edits. You might notice similar approaches in articles like Shanghai and Tokyo. For readers who wish to explore the Chinese characters further, the Notes section provides the additional information.
