Let me know if the style is correct. Surprised this isn’t in here !
-----------------------------

Editor: The style is very good, but we are no longer adding proper nouns that are in Wikipedia[1] unless they are the sort of name likely to be in *any* C-E dictionary[2]. A comprehensive C-E dictionary of topics (including proper names) can be derived automatically from Wikipedia, and is likely to appear sooner or later. Pleco has indicated that they will offer this sort of name list after Pleco version 4 is released. So it doesn't make sense for us to continue adding names manually, covering what is inevitably only a tiny subset of the names in Wikipedia.

[1] people, places, book titles etc.
[2] 诸葛亮, 黄河, 易经 etc.
