Chang Ya-chung

 * ... that Chang Ya-chung (pictured) was elected to the National Assembly in 2005, but resigned on the first day of meetings to protest its convocation? Source: "On the opening day of the National Assembly yesterday, three assembly members from the Democratic Action Alliance (DAA), led by Chang Ya-chung (張亞中), resigned from their posts in protest against what they said was the "ridiculous" procedure leading to the National Assembly's formation and the body having little legitimacy."(Taipei Times)

 * , Thanks for taking this on. I looked at the Chinese Wikipedia version of this article for help with increasing the variety of sources, but the Chinese equivalent is tagged for conflict of interest, original research, and described as overly detailed. Currently, Chinese-language news sources are covering his views on relations with China and his 2020 presidential campaign announcement in repetitive detail. Both of these topics have been covered with citations to the Taipei Times. Vycl1994 (talk) 17:09, 10 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the follow-up. It's true that the Chinese equivalent certainly needs improvement, but that doesn't mean their can't be good sources. Face-smile.svg If some of the sources used are reliable and support the content in the English article, then my personal suggestion would be to replace some of the Taipei Times sources with those if possible. However, again, it's not a big enough issue for this to pass DYK. I love the hook, btw, I forgot to mention that!-- SkyGazer 512 Oh no, what did I do this time? 03:28, 11 January 2019 (UTC)
