Yep, amended the typo error. Thanks for highlighting. As for wiki...I decided to re-write since I'd already written an article.--[[User:Yim Kai-mun|Yim Kai-mun]] 10:04, 31 January 2007 (CST) | Yep, amended the typo error. Thanks for highlighting.

I wonder about the 5,000 years in the second sentence. The phrase ''X thousand years of Chinese history'' is used with various values of X, and there's no need here to get into disputes over that. But are there really records from well back into the Neolithic, 2,000 years before the Duke of Zhou, to support such antiquity? Perhaps a "traditionally considered to be" sort of hedge would work here? [[User:Daniel Drake|Daniel Drake]] 16:35, 29 March 2007 (CDT) | |||
