I've begun the copyediting process, but have to leave for work shortly. The article seems good, but I don't think the move to the current title was correct. From the lead sentence: Chinese prehistory refers to the culture of the Stone Age in China. No, the subject described in the prose of the article is "material cultures of stone age China" or similar. Prehistory is a much broader topic, and a more cross-disciplinary thing than strictly archaeology. Folly Mox (talk) 12:59, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Both might be valid topics, so the title might depend on whether the article is expected to be expanded to become more broad, or if the intention is that a broader Prehistory article be created at some later point. We do already have List of Neolithic cultures of China. The article looks ready for DYK (maybe expand the lead?), but there has been trouble with student editors in the past so they should only nominate if they are planning to stay engaged and answer potential questions from the reviewer.

I have nominated Gwoyeu Romatzyh for a featured article review here. Please join the discussion on whether this article meets the featured article criteria. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" in regards to the article's featured status. The instructions for the review process are here. George Ho (talk) 21:43, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Converting full-width punctuation and currency symbols in horizontal text[edit]
Greetings! Over the past few years, there have been no objections to converting Latin letters and Arabic numerals to ASCII from their full-width forms when they appear in horizontal Chinese, Korean, or Japanese text. I've raised it on MOS and Wikiproject talk pages and made many cleanup edits to articles. I'm making a push to finish that cleanup, and I've been noticing that punctuation, currency symbols, and spaces have the same problem. It looks weird to have the full-width versions mixed in, and they sometimes leak into English-language text. My plan was to start converting punctuation and currency symbols in horizontal text (except where the characters themselves are being discussed) when the July 1 database dump becomes available in a week or two. If you have any questions, objections, concerns, or suggestions, please let me know! Open-circle full stop is not included; the affected characters are: ＂ ＃ ＄ ％ ＆ ＇ ＊ ＋ － ／ ＠ ＼ ＾ ＿ ｀ ￠ ￥ ￦ ＜ ＝ ＞ ｜ ￤ and the space character. -- Beland (talk) 17:45, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
