[edit]Are you sure those two statues are Qingbai ware? I agree they look like it, but the descriptions are useless, and they are not categorized as it. Johnbod (talk) 00:17, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
- Hi Johnbod. I assumed they were, given how they look. Although you're right that the image descriptions don't say so explicitly, just calling them "porcelain", which is rather vague. Do you think they should be removed? Pericles of AthensTalk 00:29, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
- I don't know - there were of course other porcelains at the time but the tint looks like Qingbai. It ought to be possible to find out if the Beijing piece is. The other looks like it has just been dug up- or made. Johnbod (talk) 00:36, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
- Hey again Johnbod. This page at Pinterest says it is a Qingbai glazed statue, although Pinterest isn't exactly a trustworthy source. Pericles of AthensTalk 01:06, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
- Johnbod: I found a CCTV documentary on Youtube saying it was produced at Jingdezhen along with other white or "pale jade" porcelain pieces that were exported around the world. In other words: Qingbai wares. Pericles of AthensTalk 01:18, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
- Ok, thanks. Let's give the other one the benefit of the doubt for now. Johnbod (talk) 15:27, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
- I'm copying this to the article talk to preserve it. But while I'm fine with the Palace Museum one, I get more & more dubious about the other, & am likely to remove it, I think. Johnbod (talk) 02:54, 18 September 2016 (UTC)

Too many images
[edit]There are too many images in this article. How many images do you need to illustrate a bowl from the southern Song dynasty, five? There should be no more than one image per item to illustrate a point, anything else can be seen on the Commons. That is what it is there for, the article is not a compilation of as many images as possible squeezed in. Gryffindor (talk) 19:25, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
- I can see we are not going to agree on this. What do you mean by an "item", I wonder, not that I really care. Johnbod (talk) 03:53, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
- You are overloading the article with images of the same type, and you are not captioning properly. This is in conflict with WP:IG, something that you should care about. Gryffindor (talk) 12:39, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
