Talk:2013 China–Russia floods

A textual error in the flood map.
At the far right side of the map, the water channel should be 'Strait of Tartary' instead of 'Straight of Tartary'. I am fairly new so I don't know how to quickly fix it. Relevant editors please correct it. --09:48, 21 August 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Xfact (talk • contribs)

Unless reportage regarding the Russian side isn't complete yet, after reading the whole article it looks like China was hit the hardest by far in every aspect and maybe the lead should reflect that.--PLNR (talk) 18:34, 21 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Unfortunately the reporting on these events in the western media is rather sparse, maybe someone just doesn't commission translations. If there is an over-emphasis on the Chinese side in the article one could assume that the article has been done by someone on the Chinese side. My recommendation would be to check this

 * but maybe someone has other sources. The selection criteria of the western mainstream media can be somewhat annoying. Just yesterday a 78 years old women who doesn't do politics at all, complained to me about fearmongering and propaganda in the newspaper of this Australian town. These 2013 floods seemed to have occurred exactly where the Chinese used to come across the Amur to harrass the Russians with their little red Mao books - how the world has changed. 121.209.56.11 (talk) 04:18, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
