Added Copyright Infringement Issues regarding the song to English Version
[edit]I added the "Copyright infringement issues" section in this English wiki, since it was missing here but present in the Chinese version. I've linked what should be linked, and added the appropriate citations. However, if you have any better translations to the Chinese video names, feel free to edit them in.

Reception
[edit]Hi all. Recent edit to this section includes: "The march's Cantonese lyrics, written with Traditional Chinese characters, affirms a sense of a collective cultural identity (as differing from the Simplified Chinese characters and Mandarin Chinese brought in from Mainland China) which is at the heart of the conflict." [1] I fail to find any mention of Glory to Hong Kong is written in traditional Chinese character from source cited and IMO a stretch to assert traditional Chinese character play an important role to the reception of Glory to Hong Kong which is not in the source. Say, one cannot read Chinese character, it does not diminish if the song is sang in 'Cantonese Yale'. What the Globe and Mail says is: "Culture and identity are also at the heart of the conflict, and it’s revealed through the languages of these two anthems. The people of Hong Kong are deeply attached to the Cantonese language and to the use of classical Chinese characters. They have seen the Central Government funnel Mandarin-speaking immigrants into Hong Kong, and designer stores cater to Mainland visitors with signage written in simplified characters. Singing Glory to Hong Kong in Cantonese affirms a sense of identity that demands fighting for." --North wiki (talk) 00:37, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
What is an "MV"?
[edit]I don't think it's explained in the article... AnonMoos (talk) 17:49, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
- AnonMoos, music video (which is listed at MV). But the abbreviation seems more used in Chinese. —Kusma (t·c) 10:02, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 16 December 2022
[edit]![]() | This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request. |
Change "Hong Kong Protest" to "Hong Kong Protest and Riot" Change "The song, dubbed by some as "national anthem of Hong Kong",[2] is widely considered as promoting democracy in Hong Kong as well as protesting the gradual curtailing of freedoms enjoyed by Hongkongers, while "March of the Volunteers", the Chinese national anthem in Hong Kong's official capacity, is seen by many as representative of the mainland's autocracy.[3]" to "The song was composed by protestors and rioters to create an anti-government movement and anti-China sentiment in the city as well as defame the city in the international community. The movement has paralysed the city Hong Kong for almost two years from 2019 to 2020, causing loss of law and order in Hong Kong." Ccue168 (talk) 03:26, 16 December 2022 (UTC)
Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the
{{Edit semi-protected}}
template. Thus will clearly be a contentious change. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 02:05, 18 December 2022 (UTC)- The 3rd line of the song is literally "Arise! Ye who would not be slaves again" which matches that of PRC's anthem. So please explain how exactly is it "anti-China"? 61.239.113.224 (talk) 00:09, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
Suggested content removal
[edit]The section in question:
______
Some critics challenge the song in terms of musical theory[failed verification], considering its lyrics "clumsy" and its melodic range "too wide for most amateur singers" to which its lyrics' spoken tones are not synched.[unreliable source?]
_______
Logically musical theory is irrelavent to a song or anthem in general. Many songs and even official anthems are more difficult in range or lyrics for the singers, such as the USA's anthem for reference. Also compare many anthems and songs with no lyrics whatsoever, such as Spain's anthem for reference. There are no relevant sources for this random opinion, and I feel it is detrimental to the article as it stands. Ldkmelon (talk) 18:07, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
