Beginning my review of this page. Ganesha811 (talk) 18:28, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
First runthrough of review completed. Still some things I need to do. I plan to compare to other UNESCO Heritage Site GA's as a benchmark for assessing the GA criteria in this case. Need to do research on completeness and these Chinese-language sources. Overall, it's well on its way to passing! Ganesha811 (talk) 13:28, 26 July 2019 (UTC)
Not many issues - but - the issues covered in 1a should be addressed. Review of Yao and Li sources was inconclusive - I'd like to see a couple more sources found to reduce the article's dependence on those two alone. Placed on hold for now. Ganesha811 (talk) 15:35, 2 August 2019 (UTC)
- @Ganesha811: Thanks for your detailed review. I've addressed 1a and added a couple of books, one of which (AFAIK the only published book about Suoyang City) is also written by Li Hongwei, who is the authority on the subject. Li is the former chief of the Guazhou archaeological department and worked on the site for 30 years. The site had been largely neglected outside the local region until recently. As a result, almost all works about Suoyang cite Li. The Li article is published in The Silk Road, an academic journal of the Dunhuang Research Academy, and the book I just added contains largely similar information with a lot more details and lots of pictures (unfortunately it's not available online). The Yao source is published by the Institute of Archaeology, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, so definitely reliable as well. After it became a World Heritage Site, Suoyang City attracted lots of media attention in China, but most of them are written by clueless journalists and cannot be regarded as reliable WP:HISTRS, so I don't want to include them here. -Zanhe (talk) 01:52, 16 August 2019 (UTC)
- Zanhe, Thank you for the detailed explanation. I'm completing my final review now, then, and I expect it will pass! Ganesha811 (talk) 05:26, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
