I'll be reviewing this article. --Cerebellum (talk) 18:45, 10 August 2019 (UTC)Reply

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
    Prose looks good, I made a few tweaks to match common English usage. I really like the lead, it's very comprehensive.
Thanks.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 22:51, 13 August 2019 (UTC) Your edits are very useful.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 22:53, 13 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
  1. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):
    Referencing is impeccable, I really like the way you use hidden comments after many sentences to show what page the information came from. I've never seen that before but it's useful.
Thanks.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 22:51, 13 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
  1. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  2. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  3. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  4. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
  5. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    Very close to the GA standard, I just saw a few small issues, explained below. I'll put the article on hold for now so you can fix those. Thank you for making those corrections! Pass. --Cerebellum (talk) 16:00, 14 August 2019 (UTC)Reply

  • In Buddhist texts: I've never seen a phrase like ordains as a monk before, I'm not sure if that is the correct usage. I would change it to a man who is ordained as a monk, usually the word is passive e.g. to be ordained. I could be wrong though.
  • Images: The image caption for the image in Introduction of Buddhism to China doesn't make it immediately clear that this woman in a Buddhist nun or why the photo is there. Consider revising the caption.
  • Introduction of Buddhism to China: I'm a little confused by the phrase as well as suffering in family life, does Buddhism really advocate suffering? No problem if so, but please clarify if not.
  • It doesn't. Thanks for the catch.  Fixed.
  • Apologetics and adaptation: The phrase destructive to the person needs a reference since it is a direct quotation.
  • Role of women: I didn't really understand the first paragraph. You say that there was a need for changing post-Han society to deal with unruly daughters-in-law, could you expand on that a little more? Why were daughters-in-law so unruly?
