 * ... that the debate over the direction of economic development in China has unfolded over a metaphor for baking a cake?
 * Reviewed: Digital Bounce
 * Comment: One of the most important debates in the direction of Chinese development, and not a drip of coverage on the entire English wikipedia.

 * Symbol confirmed.svg Length, date checks out. Chinese refs accepted AGF. However, the wording 'the debate' is difficult to use in a hook (it implies that perhaps there was no debate on economic development prior to the metaphor). I would like to propose an ALT1 "... that cake-baking metaphors are used in internal debates within the Communist Party of China regarding economical development?" --Soman (talk) 00:43, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I see where you are coming from. How about ALT2: "... that Chinese politicians have engaged in debate over economic development using a metaphor for baking a cake?" Colipon+ (Talk) 00:55, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
 * ALT2 is fine with me. --Soman (talk) 07:59, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
