Sanguozhi zhu and Hou Hanshu references

[edit]

@Aza24: How should the Sanguozhi zhu and Hou Hanshu references be formatted? The way I'm currently citing it is messy and awkward. Mucube (talkcontribs) 19:15, 23 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I see what you were saying now on my talk page. I'll try and think of a solution when I get to the full review. Best – Aza24 (talk) 00:15, 24 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

[edit]
  • Throughout the article, you should be referring to Handan Chun by just his surname, Handan, as is standard on WP
    • Done, mostly
  • There's no date in the lead to give the reader reference for when Handan lived
    • Added "lived in the early 3rd century"
  • What about "Chinese writer, calligrapher, and official from Cao Wei" instead? I feel that his being from Yingchuan Commandery is not pertinent enough to warrant inclusion in the lead
    • I've reworded the lead a bit. I've kept the Yingchuan Commandery thing because I'm not sure where best to put that fact in the article.
  • I'm not sure the line "He was a famous writer and poet, and was particularly known for his calligraphy" adds anything to the lead—it seems redundant to the previous sentence
    • Removed sentence.
  • Definitely link county magistrate
    • Done
  • Could you briefly explain who "Cao E" is?
    • Done
  • "fled to" makes it sound like he was running from something? Is this the case or should it rephrased?
  • Page number(s) for Knechtges?
    • Done
  • When you introduce people like Chen Ji, it would be nice to have a word or two about who they are, i.e. "he wrote the funerary stele for the scholar Chen Ji"
    • I made it to look like "the official Chen Ji"
  • Who are Shen Yucheng and Shi Xuancong? Sinologists?
    • The Baccini thesis mentions them once and doesn't elaborate.
  • The Works section is generally well-written, though throughout the article the prose can be become somewhat rigid at times. Part of this is, I think, the fact that Handan's full name is used so often (as I mentioned above), when it should almost always be just the surname.
  • Going to leave these comments here for now for you to respond to/address. Aza24 (talk) 21:22, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Aza24: Addressed all of them. Mucube (talkcontribs) 21:18, 28 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    All looks great, thanks. I tried to adjust the commentary refs more—what do you think? Also, you should probably add volume numbers to two of the Sanguozhi zhu refs; I wasn't sure what they were. Aza24 (talk) 00:11, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I added the volume numbers for the two Sanguozhi zhu references. I would prefer the commentary references to look something like: "Yu Huan's Weilüe quoted in the Sanguozhi zhu, vol 21: "及黃初初,以淳爲博士給事中。淳作投壺賦千餘言奏之,文帝以爲工,賜帛千匹。"" Mucube (talkcontribs) 04:24, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    That would definitely be fine by me if you prefer it. Aza24 (talk) 04:34, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I've changed the references now. Do you have any other suggestions for the article? Mucube (talkcontribs) 04:56, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    No—great work here. Passing now, congrats! Aza24 (talk) 06:13, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
