This article looks pretty good, on the whole. It could use a bit of expansion of context - the war, background information on Sun Chuanfang, and so on, but, whilst I think that would improve the article, I don't think that's quite necessary for GA.

The major problem that this article has is a questionable reference: Shu, Sheng-Chi (2009), "Transregional Networking in the Chinese Journalistic Diaspora: Hu Wenhu/Sin Chew Jit Poh and Guomindang China, 1929-1937", Master Thesis (National University of Singapore) - is there no other reference that could be used? Master Theses are somewhat questionable sources; whilst it's not necessarily a blocker, if it's replacable with a published source, that would be preferred.

Images File:Shi jianqiao pamphlet.jpg has the wrong date; the date, as given, is after her death. I blame the Upload Wizard, which has a problem with that. Adam Cuerden (talk) 18:09, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

I'm open to being convinced on the master thesis, if you can find good Wikipedia policy that justifies its use. The image does need fixed, but this should be relatively trivial. Adam Cuerden (talk) 18:09, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

Checking again, now that some additional work ha s been done, I note the master thesis is used as one of multiple sources when it's used, and is used for statements that aren't particularly controversial. As such, ✅ Adam Cuerden (talk) 22:17, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
