Requested move[edit]

Yang hu → Yang Zhu – I was trying to move "Yang Chu" to "Yang Zhu" (because the title should be pinyin Zhu and not Wade-Giles Chu), but typed "Yang hu" by mistake. Could an admin please change Yang hu to Yang Zhu? Thanks. Keahapana 01:47, 24 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nominator. Alternative would be to request deletion for Yang Zhu then try moving the article again. --Will74205 06:39, 27 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Why repeated "Yang [Zhu]"?[edit]

Why is Yang's name repeatedly followed by his given name in brackets? I haven't seen anything like this done before. To me, it looks unsightly and unprofessional. Either his full name "Yang Zhu" should be given, or just his surname, "Yang"…unless I'm missing some good reason for it to be this way. Lantianer 12:10, 30 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree it is unprofessional. I removed the brackets in deference to the maxim "language is power." Note, however, that those who now spell "Chu" as "Zhu" were those (Red Guards) who wanted to bury the old. I think Taiwan would approve of "Chu." I want others' comments, however.

"naturalism" in Philosophy of Nature section appears vague.[edit]

Headline is Self-explanatory. What form of naturalism? Does it refer to a specific school in China?
