Recent incidents of censorship in China
Recently, several things have been banned in mainland China, including:
 * Winnie the Pooh
 * PewDiePie
 * South Park
 * DJ Zedd

Now seems like a ripe time to cover these incidents. The true question is... who will do it? RayDeeUx (talk) 02:08, 22 October 2019 (UTC)

 * It doesn't have to censored in all cases to be censorship. The source used in this article describes censorship of Winnie the Pooh on social media and film. FutureFlowsLoveYou (talk) 20:17, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
 * If we add these, we need to have good sources as under WP:RS and also check the notability of these entries.

Informal and "charged" language tone and usage.
As I was looking over this article, something that particularly bugged me about it was the manner of in which the article "read" so to speak. It struck me as noticeably informal, and it read like an opinion paper in the times. Also, given the sensitive nature of this topic, I am surprised that it hasn't been locked to semi-protected. Furthermore, I feel that there should be a redirect somewhere in the page to List of websites blocked in mainland China for multiple reasons, including "with the intent to avoid confusion" and for "general usefulness in aiding the navigability of Wikipedia". 2601:647:5A00:B420:3D14:5AFA:1A10:1EB7 17 November 2021 (PST) (talk)

need more information on rating standard.
there is censorship in every country, it is very important for content creator to know how china does rating, yet there is no discussion on it? for example, smoking, what condition and rating is smoking allowed to be shown? we need more proper information, not this political pov that doesn't really explain anything that sound more like a rant. or at least, there should be a link to a separate article about what can and cannot be shown from a legal and rating pov. 101.127.15.2 (talk) 03:37, 16 June 2023 (UTC)


 * The third paragraph in the lede addresses the censorship ratings in terms of freedom of press. Path2space (talk) 02:27, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
