• ... that China had such appeal during the Ming Dynasty that even a king from Borneo insisted to have his tomb there?

• Article is fully referenced, new enough and big and within policy, hook however is not completely in the article. I see nothing about appeal or insisting, so how about:

• alt1 ... during the Ming Dynasty a king from Borneo requested to have his tomb there?

which is referenced and present. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 21:43, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

In principle ok; maybe insisting was a bit too much. But shouldn't there be replaced with "China" as the Ming Dynasty is -formally- not a place? L.tak (talk) 22:05, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

OK so I propose alt2 Graeme Bartlett (talk) 03:27, 16 April 2012 (UTC):

• alt2 ... that during the Ming Dynasty a king from Borneo requested to have his tomb in China?

That's ok to me! L.tak (talk) 07:47, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

good to go then Graeme Bartlett (talk) 08:18, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
