Format

The formats your drafted are very clear and easy to follow. The only thing I would omit would be the "viewership rating." Taiwan and China dramas do not maintain a standardized rating system that is readily available to use. Unless I can find a site that offers such info, I rather not have it as one of the standardized categories. Which reminds me, I don't know where Addictus got his/her rating info. So I'm thinking of deleting the "Top 10 All-time Highest rated TV dramas" from the drama page.

One thing to remind everyone. If you do add viewership ratings to these dramas, make sure you cite the source of that information. As WaterOB mentioned, there may be two or more sources for viewership ratings, and more likely they differ from one another. Maybe work out a design where a drama can list viewership ratings from multiple sources.

Example

*'''Viewership ratings:''' 13.2 [http://source1.com], 14.1 [http://source2.com]

Let's post your Chinese guidelines on DramaWiki:Style guide and start editing drama/actor sections. I'm most actively in TWdrama, so I'll begin with that.
--WaterOB 12:23, 21 July 2006 (EDT)

Ok, I've posted the guidelines, they can now be found on the Style guide. --A10203040 13:13, 21 Jul 2006 (EDT)

Good job A10203040!!!!! Thank you so much for your efforts and taking the lead on this. I'm seeing a huge increase in editing activity among the Chinese pages. Having these policies in writing and posted on DramaWiki will give us an even more solid foundation to stand on when we continue to clean things up here. Groink 17:50, 21 Jul 2006 (EDT)

Thanks, I'm glad that it has been of help. I will like to thank WaterOB for getting the ball rolling and for his valuable input in this too.--A10203040 01:56, 22 Jul 2006 (EDT)

Pinyin

Oh, sorry for not mentioning any changes. It is under the threat of a fellow user, because if I do not change the Pinyin of all the articles and their redirects within 24 hours, they will all be reverted. I've been changing the articles' titles, and all wiki-links that contain the new titles. I believe it is necessary, because Pinyin uses that format I've been trying to change all the Chinese Pinyin names to. (e.g. Zhang Tie Lin > Zhang Tielin; the earlier format is nonstandard Pinyin) --Ahbeng 00:01, 24 Jul 2006 (EDT)

Well, before taking what I said out of context... I mentioned that if you move an article, you must also repair all the wikilinks pointing to the article. I didn't say you had to go and repair ALL the articles you found to be a problem. Despite all of that, what you SHOULD have done is in the talk page of the romanization article is bring up what you feel is incorrect, and then let the others make comments. This will then allow for the romanization article to be corrected. If you did what you did on Wikipedia, you would've been caught, hung, shot at, and tied to the railroad tracks.

Actually, at Wikipedia, you receive several warnings before receiving a temporary block anyhow. Also, Wikipedia does allow for changes, if spelling is incorrect and the such. And, I've fixed every article that had incorrectly spelt wiki-links (through the categories Chinese and Taiwanese). --Ahbeng 00:38, 24 Jul 2006 (EDT)

One reason why I wanted you to wait because many articles on the net use either, even if you do think it's incorrect. Another is that it creates a more complex system in naming chinese articles. --A10203040 00:52, 24 Jul 2006 (EDT)

Thanks

I love Shao Nian Yang Jia Jiang to pieces. So it's becoming a pet project for me. (^o^)/>~~
I'm looking at your "List of Drama Aired" and it's amazing. I'll contribute to your list whenever I can. --WaterOB 12:16, 25 Oct 2006 (EDT)

About Article Formatting Draft

Sorry, I didn't know where to put thisand for my english. Well, I agree with all all the stuff concerning the formatting. But, I got a suggestion about the images. Sometimes they can be hard to find so if the images don't correspond to the standard, i think we have to put them, because people need to see how the artist look.

Guo Liang

While I was watching a drama series (Happy and Lucky/The Luckiest Man) with him, I decided to look him up. I did not see his name under Guo Liang but the name Li Guo Li (or so I thought it was him just with a different name). While browsing through yesasia, this "Li Guo Li" seemed to be a director as well as an actor. He acted in most if not all of the dramas listed in wiki under Guo Liang whom I was looking up. I'm not 100% sure that, that is him under a different name but I did do a lot of googling and the two seemed to match to me. Sry for the trouble if they are two totally different people. Do you know if they are two different people?

Allowed External Links

Hi, could you please clarify whether external links to certain forums are allowed on DramaWiki? For instance, I've seen links to Soompi forums in some Korean artiste articles, but I thought sites that require membership/signing up to view are not allowed? Is this an exemption from the rule since Soompi specializes in Korean entertainment similar to how Jdorama.com specializes in Japanese entertainment? If this is the case, would some SPCNET threads be considered acceptable links for Chinese artistes or series? I saw one in an actor's thread, but didn't know if it's allowed. Thanks! --Lady Zhuge 18:31, 5 Apr 2007 (CDT)
