<< review queue entry 69727 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> 1) Suggestion: We don't need to repeat the Wade-Giles spelling in every entry. We should at least give the current standard spelling (Qing) first. https://www.britannica.com/topic/Qing-dynasty https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qing_dynasty 2) "the final years of the Qing dynasty" is precisely correct. Why spoil the definition by adding an inaccurate gloss "China at the turn of the 20th century"? 清末 is a *period* of time with a fairly precise endpoint (late 1911) -- not a *point* in time (1900). 3) 大清帝国 More correct to call it an *empire* (帝国) rather than a "dynasty". |
