 * The title is too long, so I've renamed the title of article per WP:NCBOOKS. Also, I've removed the subtitle from original hook. --George Ho (talk) 20:18, 22 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Pictogram voting keep.svg The article moved into mainspace on December 19, 2012, so it qualifies as new. The whole content is verified by mostly offline sources (some accessible, but only a few or less pages), but the content is well-informed and well-sourced. All reliable, and the hook is verfiable. Short or long title may be all right for a hook, but "Crisis and Transformation" (now a redirect) is too ambiguous to be a current article title because there is Crisis and Transformation in China's Hong Kong. --George Ho (talk) 21:08, 22 December 2012 (UTC)
