Having worked on this article since Christmas—with some valuable contributions from other editors—I would welcome some further feedback, with a view to getting the article up to GA or FA status. --NigelG (or Ndsg) | Talk 17:49, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's a pretty specialized topic (a Chinese romanization system), but historically quite important. I want to be sure that the non-specialist can get the gist of what it's all about—so please feel free to point out any obscurities or inconsistencies. --NigelG (or Ndsg) | Talk 18:30, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to include a photo of Yuen Ren Chao, the chief developer of GR. Unfortunately the WP article on Chao doesn't have a photo of him. Any suggestions? --NigelG (or Ndsg) | Talk 20:57, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for running the article through the program. I think most of the points have already been addressed, & that the article could do with some human evaluation & suggestions!
FWIW My personal to-do list for Gwoyeu Romatzyh includes the following (already mentioned on Talk:Gwoyeu Romatzyh):
  • use the Cite web template to wikify external links
  • more on history, probably derived from the online chapter of DeFrancis' 1950 book: GR implementation, reactions to it, etc
  • a section on Opposition to GR? Should include the splendid quote from Karlgren ("based on lies ...") given in DeFrancis.
Anything else? --NigelG (or Ndsg) | Talk 23:07, 19 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
