 * ? The 20 February 2004 version said Tangshan &#21776;&#23665; is a Chinese euphenism for China. – I suppose that's what the current hatnote is about – but by December 2005 a basic article was there. Wbm1058 (talk) 12:38, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

some things are missing.
maybe people should foucus on more important things like, for example, the POPULATION, the AREA, and other IMPORTANT STATISTICS--72.139.114.155 01:17, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

I don't know what they mean by "tourist attraction". I have been living in Tangshan for about four months now, and althoug I am very happy in this pleasant city, I can't call it a "tourist attraction" by any definition. Does he mean a tourist attraction for Chinese or Foreigners? If he means foreigners, then I feel compelled to share with him that, after living here for four months, I have see only two people who may in fact have been foreign tourists, and I only saw them because I was in a very expensive and western-style hotel. I have only seen about three Western foreigners since I have been living here, and they were all English teachers like me. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 222.223.17.38 (talk) 08:09, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

Early history
there were no humans 4 mill years ago in china, maybe 2 mill in Africa and there was no source for the statement!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.112.158.185 (talk) 05:22, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Would you believe 4 thousand? Still seems like an unsourced guess. Wbm1058 (talk) 12:22, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

Technical issues with the hatnote
I see that Chinese Wikipedia handles hatnotes differently, as it does not italicize them. See 唐山市.

This became an issue here when the hatnote was standardized to use redirect by an edit to template-ify it on 11 November 2012. Because 唐山 did not redirect to this article, it was flagged by Category:Missing redirects. Some editors, including myself on 29 June 2013, attempted to fix this, but were reverted per WP:MOS-ZH (see WP:NOCHINESEITALICS). Lacking a solution, I let this article remain in that category for months.

But now I have found a work-around: I just created the redirect 唐山 and that seems to have solved it. – Wbm1058 (talk) 14:18, 23 August 2014 (UTC)
