Ta-Yuan[edit]

Came across this randomly - I've not edited the article at all. Well-written, comprehensive, has images with good captions, headings and references. (Note - this nomination should not count as a vote in favour as I'm an anon editor). --194.73.130.132 11:40, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Object. Not nearly adequate in comprehensiveness. Hydriotaphia 13:54, Apr 4, 2005 (UTC)

  • It would be helpful to have some notion of what's missing. 194.73.130.132 14:16, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • The anon is correct - as it is, this objection is so vague as to render it inactionable and therefore invalid. →Raul654 08:19, Apr 5, 2005 (UTC)
I have no idea what I was thinking; maybe I meant to comment on a different article (or was on crack). Sorry: it's a great article, and I gladly support. Hydriotaphia 06:00, Apr 7, 2005 (UTC)
Actually, I have two small suggestions--on whose acceptance my support is not, by the way, contingent. (1) Better link and synethesize the sections. Right now they read as disjointed from each other. (2) Modify the system of citation so that it's easier on the eyes. Put the page citations in parentheses with periods. Perhaps I'll do (2) myself when I have time.

Support A fascinating article about a group I'd never heard off. Great images, referenced and well-written. It's a great story as well, a group of presumably Greek colonists cut off from the Mediterranean world as described by their Chinese contemporaries. Lisiate 01:39, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Support Like what Lisiate mentioned, very fascinating, unique and well referenced. Minor grammar and spelling mistakes, but once corrected, definitely a FA material. Travisyoung 06:18, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Support General support. Nice article. Although, some controversy in its name exists and should be clarified (however, if no one will do this, I'll continue to support it, because these changes seem minor for myself). See talk page. Cmapm 13:24, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)

  • Corrected the ideograms. PHG 12:51, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC)
