SOmething strange about this site - for the past few months it seems to have fallen off the Alexa ranking chart. Did it really go from in the top 1200 sites to "not in the top 100,000" in the space of four months? Rmhermen (talk) 18:12, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
 * It is strange. I think since at least october 08, hudong has dwarfed en.wikipedia by 300,000+ articles (of pretty good quality too). Yet nobody mentions it?  Everybody focuses on Baidu Baike but that's not even a contender right? Benjwong (talk) 02:42, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, there should be more about this written in English. From some random sampling, it seems that a lot of the content on Hudong is copied from other websites. --Apoc2400 (talk) 18:03, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
 * It seems you can't wikipedia with Hudong. Some articles only have a sentence or dictionary entries or lyrics of music. --Boris 12:37, 16 March 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Borianium (talk • contribs)

Is there any chance that we could use Hudong to expand the Chinese Wikipedia? Sean 0000001 (talk) 08:53, 19 December 2009 (UTC)

 * The economy hudong page featured Jimmy Wales for many days (still). So they do let people know there is a wikipedia out there. Benjwong (talk) 06:47, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Sources?
I'm probably missing something obvious, but how do you get at the sources of anything on Hudong? (facts, photographs, edit histories... anything) Wnt (talk) 03:24, 6 February 2010 (UTC)

NPOV?
This article seems to focus a lot on how Wikipedia is clearly better. It may not be wrong, but still… the POV needs fixing. Gaelan 💬✏️ 08:34, 13 February 2019 (UTC)

Baike.com → Douyin Baike – Douyin Baike 百科小能手 (talk) 10:55, 29 February 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. – robertsky (talk) 04:34, 9 March 2024 (UTC)


 * What do you want to move it to? —blindlynx 15:27, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
 * The title name of the entry is not quite what I expected, and I want to update it to Douyin Baike, but I don't have the permission to change the title, so I try to move the title and I don't know if I can achieve the same purpose 百科小能手 (talk) 10:03, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Why do you want to move it? —blindlynx 17:03, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
 * At present, the encyclopedia product corresponding to this entry has been renamed 抖音百科（Douyin Baike）, so I hope that the entry title and content will also be updated at the same time. 百科小能手 (talk) 04:06, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
 * @百科小能手, can you provide a source to show that the name of the encyclopedia has changed? A press release would be fine. I'm a bit confused by the request since when I search for 抖音百科 I arrive at Baike.com - that is, it's not clear to me that the name has changed at all. -- asilvering (talk) 03:59, 8 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Weak support "Baike" just means encyclopedia. The proposed title offers instant disambiguation from Sogou Baike and Baidu Baike.  The website uses the branding "抖音百科" (Douyin Baike) even though the URL is still baike.com. 162 etc. (talk) 05:37, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Is it usually referred to as Baike.com or as Douyin Baike in English? Vacosea (talk) 22:45, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
 * it is Douyin Baike 百科小能手 (talk) 08:28, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Oppose Douyin Baike doesn't seem to be the English common name yet. After it was acquired, the only news I could find was a rebrand to 'Tuotiao Baike'. This rebrand to 'Douyin Baike' is not even covered in English sources. Every sources that I can find after acquisition in English still refers to the site as 'B/baike.com', 'also known as baike.com' or similar, or just Baike . – robertsky (talk) 10:57, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Robertsky. Current name seems fine. &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 13:08, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
