Liu Shahe

5x expanded by Zanhe (talk). Self-nominated at 09:42, 29 November 2019 (UTC).

  • Article has been 5x expanded, is long enough, neutral and enough sources. QPQ has been done. I am not a big fan of the current hook. From the article it becomes clear that the denouncement leads to him undergoing reform by labour and subsequently exiled, which is the reason he can't really publish. From the hook I assumed it was because nobody wanted to read/publish his work because he was denounced as landlord class. Can you write a hook to make this a little clearer?

@Achaea: Thanks for your review. How about ALT1:
  • ALT1 ... that after Chinese poet Liu Shahe was denounced as a "filial descendant of the landlord class" in 1957, he performed forced labour for eight years and was unable to publish for two decades? -Zanhe (talk) 05:27, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
  • @Zanhe: I'm happy with that, thanks! Achaea (talk) 09:45, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
