=Historical books=

= Mining in China =

If someone has time, at the very least, Wiki needs a barebones Mining in China page as a one-stop shop linking to the existing coverage of Gold mining in China, Coal in China, &c. Better still if it could link to historical coverage, often hidden in subsections of pages like Technological and industrial history of China that people wouldn't necessarily expect to exist.

If someone has a lot of time, the "Technological and industrial history" article just mentioned barely even covers as far back as 1950. It patently needs to be moved to a page about the PRC or greatly expanded...—LlywelynII 07:59, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

= Capital controls in China =

  • Please create an article on capital controls in China. I have a lot of friends who regularly do business in China and tell me about the difficulty of withdrawing assets. I would love to see a Wikipedia article on it, but I'm not qualified to write it. --Daviddwd (talk) 03:46, 28 December 2018 (UTC)

=Lishan laomu=

  • Lishan Laomu - is a goddess in Taoist legend, and she is also regarded as one of the ancestors in China.

=Lei Family Bridge=

  • Lei Family Bridge - a small village that was destroyed in 2009 to make way for a golf course that never got built. Members of the village community still carry on some of the traditions of the community by getting together weekly.

=Moving categories=

Hi, I feels that the some of the articles within :Category:Chinese television series should move to :Category:Television series set in China due to various users' mistakes of seeing the former as a category of setting. Please help cleaning up the category.--NeoBatfreak (talk) 19:28, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

=[[Dai River (China)]]=

The encyclopedia lacked an article on this river, and I'm lazy (XD) so I shall request this article here. Revolution1221 (talk · email · contributions) 02:49, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

:I have created a stub article for this river. Information is not easy to find on it on the internet - I found a journal article on erosion that was helpful, I suggest other people looking to flesh the article out may want to use Google Scholar as well. TI. Gracchus (talk) 21:30, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

=[[Xu Shiying]]=

There's an article on Chinese political leader Xu Shiying that has been mostly blank since it was first created in May 2012. The article is bothering me as he appears to be quite significant, but I don't have much knowledge on this topic. I've added the WikiProject China banner to it -- I was wondering if someone expand the article, perhaps by translating the Chinese language version of the same article (http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/許世英)? Thanks! The Giant Purple Platypus (talk) 10:23, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

:Translation of the Chinese language wiki article would be counterproductive. The article only has one non-print source, which does little more than outline the fact that he was a politician and was involved in a railroad scandal. Fleshing this out will either involve tracking down print versions of the Chinese sources present in the other article and verifying their accuracy, or doing new research for other sources. TI.

=Yangpu District, Shanghai=

Some issues mentioned here with some edits to the district's recent history. Some could use sourcing and others need to be reformatted. We could also use a short gloss on the major waterways in the area besides the Huangpu Ship Canal and Yangshupu/Yangtzepoo Creek. — LlywelynII 05:43, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

= [[Erjingtiao chili pepper]]s =

Hi! Could someone make an article about {{Transliteration|zh|èrjīngtiáo làjiāo}} ({{Zh|s=二荆条辣椒|t=二荆條乾辣椒}})? I would really love to know more and write about this variety of Sichuan chili peppers myself, but English sources are hard to find. Commons has a category (:commons:Category:Erjingtiao chili), and it would also be really nice if someone could post a photo of fresh erjingtiao chili peppers.

= Kaifeng mass bike riding incident =

Hi! I noticed there wasn’t an article for the Kaifeng mass bike ride incident which has been covered by the media. It would be beneficial if we added an article about it. I’m using an IP.

= Eastern Han Generals =

I was on the 28 generals of the Cloud Terrace article and I noticed that there were three generals mentioned on that page that had pretty sizable Chinese articles but were missing an English article entirely. Those being Jia Fu, Kou Xun, and Cen Peng. It would be greatly appreciated if I could read about them on here without having to rely on machine translation.
