- Even though the person is deceased and thus BLP doesn't apply, I'm really not sure if the hook proposed is a good idea. "Notorious" isn't mentioned in the article (only in one of the sources) and is subjective anyway. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 01:24, 4 June 2022 (UTC)

- @Narutolovehinata5: Hi, I have created a more neutral sounding hook as an alternative -Imcdc (talk) 02:04, 4 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Narutolovehinata5:. I think you misunderstand. notorious means "famous or well known, typically for some bad quality or deed." So when the authorities have you tried, convicted and executed then I think nearly everyone would say that you are a) well known and b) did a bad deed and this is in no way subjective... and Wikipedia would not care if you were living ... this is a notorious person. It doesn't matter if the word is actally used. Editors are required to paraphrase. Victuallers (talk) 13:20, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

New enough, long enough, well cited, hook multiply cited. GTG. Suggestion (not for DYK), I think it would be useful to have the value of 200 kYuan converted to USD so there is a direct comparison in the lede and body. Maury Markowitz (talk) 16:36, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
