Tanks in the People's Liberation Army → Tanks in the Chinese Army – A significant portion of the article has nothing to do with the PLA. This article covers tanks used by China during the warlord era, during KMT rule, and then during CPC rule. This article is an overview of tanks used by China, and is not specific to the PLA. -- 李博杰  | —Talk contribs email 15:00, 26 March 2013 (UTC)

• Probably not a bad idea based on the article's content except that the PLA is technically not the Chinese Army. —  AjaxSmack  23:29, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
  • Yes, the PLA in theory only serves the party, not the country. Well, I guess an alternative might be Tanks in China or something. At any rate, the current title isn't really that great, as National Revolutionary Army history isn't related to the PLA. -- 李博杰  | —Talk contribs email 03:58, 27 March 2013 (UTC)
    • A note that similar articles were never uniform in article titling to begin with: On the one hand there's Tanks in the United States, Tanks in the Soviet Union; then, there is Tanks in the German Army, Tanks in the British Army, Tanks in the Japanese Army. We might want to also rename the other articles for uniformity purposes in the future as well, to reduce some of the mess. -- 李博杰  | —Talk contribs email 05:37, 27 March 2013 (UTC)
      • Tanks in China is fine with me. —  AjaxSmack  21:23, 31 March 2013 (UTC)

• Alternate use Tanks in China instead, since this article clearly isn't about the PLA only, as it covers material prior to its existence. IIRC, the PAP also has tanks. -- 65.92.180.137 (talk) 04:20, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

I support a move of some kind. Maybe Tanks in the Chinese military? --FutureTrillionaire (talk) 14:28, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

• Support Tanks in China which is accurate and concise. --BDD (talk) 17:56, 2 April 2013 (UTC)
• Support. I think Tanks in China is the best suggestion so far (but even Tanks in the Chinese Army would be an improvement on the current title) bobrayner (talk) 11:37, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

 Resolved This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.—cyberbot II ^Notify_Online 22:09, 9 April 2014 (UTC)
