 * Symbol delete vote.svg The article is new enough and has over the required number (1896) characters. However, the sources are kind of problematic. Ref 1 (qcoco.com), for instance, is a forum and thus cannot be used as a reliable source. The article does not cite a single academic source. Ե րևանցի  talk  10:23, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg At least one of those sources is a government source. One seems to be a news site. This is a fairly new editor, so maybe someone else familiar with Chinese articles can have a look at this. — Maile  (talk) 23:25, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Symbol delete vote.svg I agree with 's original review. I've copyedited the article a bit, but it cannot be fixed without rewriting significant portions of it. Most references are problematic, except for one government source. The nominator has not attempted to address any of the issues, and has in the past made bad nominations such as this one. -Zanhe (talk) 20:31, 6 November 2015 (UTC)
