[edit] Nothing in decline about the Yellow River flood in 1642
More info is needed about this flood which killed about 300,000 people. Anyone interested in doing some research?
[edit] Use of Pinyin
172: try to use Pinyin romanization. But if you determined to use other methods, provide redirect links to their respective Pinyin titled pages.Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (chinese) would be helpful. -- User:kt2
I will from now on. I'm sorry.
- It's okay and you don't need to be sorry. BTW you don't have to use Pinyin in your sections but just redirect the links to Pinyin titled pages. Wade-Giles is still being used among Chinese history researchers.
[edit] Error in date
I think there is a mistake in the date but I don't know the correct answer : "Hung-wu increasingly concentrated power in his own hands and in 1830 abolished the Imperial Secretariat"

"and in any case restrictions on emigration and ship building were largely lifted by the mid-17th century."
Surely this is a mistake?, the Ming dynasty had collapsed by that time, 1644, they were in no position to ban or allow anything.
[edit] Meaningless phrase.
The phrase `capsized by a tablet' is meaningless, but I'm not sure what was intended.
[edit] Section should be removed.
Fall of Ming dynasty
It is a poorly written article. It is layered in a lot of objectivity. It is does not contain factual data for an encyclopedia.

- The majority of the Zhu Yuanzhang stuff has been deleted it was almost word for word identical to the Zhu Yuanzhang article.The "Fall of the Ming dynasty"material has been split off into its own article.Cetot 01:25, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Muslim Ming Dynasty
Is there a proper source for the claims that the Ming Dynasty could have been Muslim?
- What happed to the info on that? It was interesting reading. You should at least put the deleted text in the talk page. --Dangerous-Boy 05:56, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Wikification
I don't know if this article will ever get wikified unless someone knowledgeable about the subject does it. -- Kjkolb 09:19, September 4, 2005 (UTC)
- What is all this discussion stuff? Do we really need this stuff on the article? Colipon+(T) 23:57, 4 September 2005 (UTC)

- As far as I can tell its basically virtual history a list of turning points at which the Ming dynasty could have saved itself, with the "discussion" bit being what could have been done differently.Interesting in its own way but confusing if you can't tell which bits are fact and which bits speculative.Cetot 01:25, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Yu Ninjie's map?
What happened to it? --Dangerous-Boy 06:01, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Why is this article marked for copyediting?
I've glanced over about half of the article, and I can't see any terribly badly worded sections or prevalent mispellings. I've removed the copyedit tag, but of course feel free to add it again if anyone wishes.
