- Lua error: expandTemplate: template "y" does not exist.
- Comment: The hooks should attribute the strategy to Mao Zedong, since all literature on the subject attributes it to him in the 1940s. Any discussion about it in the modern context acknowledges that there are only hypothetical concerns about it still being relevant. It's more a strategy of Mao than a Template:Tq, just like one wouldn't write in a hook that Blitzkrieg is a Template:Tq. — MarkH21talk 00:42, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
- I have given a detailed response on the talk page. In the case of Blitzkrieg, it was invented by the Germans but it isn't used by them anymore. Whereas it is not known if the "five fingers" strategy has been discontinued by the Chinese. Hence it is wrong to compare the two. SignificantPBD (talk) 00:06, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
