• 16px The article is new enough and has over the required number (1896) characters. However, the sources are kind of problematic. Ref 1 (qcoco.com), for instance, is a forum and thus cannot be used as a reliable source. The article does not cite a single academic source. Երևանցի ^talk 10:23, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

16px At least one of those sources is a government source. One seems to be a news site. This is a fairly new editor, so maybe someone else familiar with Chinese articles can have a look at this. — Maile (talk) 23:25, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
