Talk:Jiang Rong

place of birth
it seems possible that he wasn't born in Beijing. See the discussion on the German page, where an editor refers to the intro to the German translation of his novel. There-in, the editor says, it is said that he moved to Beijing at an early age. On the other hand, online sites give Beijing/Peking as his birth-place, e.g., http://www.kosmix.com/topic/Lu_Jiamin and www.goodreads.com/author/show/590542.Jiang_Rong -. Can some-one find out which is correct?Kdammers (talk) 07:44, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Here is another source that says he was not born in Beijing: "Neue zuercher Zeitung" (a major Swiss newspaper) from 16 August 2008.  "«Wolf Totem» – wie ein kritischer Roman in China zum Bestseller mms. Jiang Rong, der Name ist ein Pseudonym von Lü Jiamin, wurde 1946 geboren in der Provinz Jiangsu."  That is, he was born in Jiangsu Province.Kdammers (talk) 07:53, 27 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Jiangsu birthplace --- also supported in various Chinese sources . Specifically "蘇北根據地" (don't know exactly what it's usually translated as in English, something like "Northern Jiangsu Revolutionary Base Area". Will fix. cab (talk) 08:05, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

Lü Jiamin → Jiang Rong – WP:COMMONNAME is the pen name not real name, just look at all the references. The article says: "Until 2006, only five people even knew his true identity; he never revealed his real name to the media... His identity finally became widely known in November 2007, after he won the first Man Asian Literary Prize; a photograph he had submitted to the jury, along with his real name, were published by newspapers all over the world." As for Jiang Rong (sport shooter), that article averages <0.25 page views/day, since it's a WP:TWODABS the author should occupy the primary topic with a hatnote for the sport shooter.
