 * Symbol question.svg I've renamed the article to its pinyin romanization per Chinese naming convention. And I think the hook should reflect the fact that this is a legendary, not historical figure. -Zanhe (talk) 00:06, 20 September 2013 (UTC)

 * Although Xu You is a revered figure in Taoism, calling him a Taoist seems anachronistic. So I removed the word and made minor wording changes to the hook. It's now good to go. The picture licence is fine. Symbol confirmed.svg -Zanhe (talk) 22:25, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
