Talk:Chang (surname)

Untitled
There is a proposal to create a precedent that names are not encyclopedic. Articles about names regularly show up on various deletion pages and are summarily deleted. Perhaps - since you've been working on an article about a name, you hold a different opinion that you'd like to express.

Sorting out
Some thoughts on this article, which now seems likely to be kept:
 * Let's put a list of people known in English by the name "Chang" (whichever one) in Chang, at the bottom.
 * Should we make this page a disambiguation page for the different surnames spelled "Chang"? (If so, why not merge it into Chang?)
 * Should articles/sections on specific surnames be put here, when/if created? If so, which ones should go here and which should be filed under Jang or Zhang? -- Visviva 12:52, 2 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Any surnames using the character 張 should be in Zhang (surname), ideally. Pinyin is more authoritive than Wade-Giles.

 * "on Taiwan" is not POV pushing. It is the common name for the ROC on Taiwan. RevolverOcelotX
