was a Chinese-born, just a quick question, is his nationality ambiguous so that Chinese-born British isn't put?
I could not find a source which explicitly calls him British, even though he certainly was... But it turns out one of the sources I already use calls him English, so, yes much better put. - G
throughout occupation, throughout the occupation. Grammatically correct originally but that's just my suggestion^^ It's alright if not followed.
Flows better with a the, I think you're right. - G

Overall: Both article need end-of-sentence cites for the fact of him discovering the city. The source confirms the claim ("He discovered the Shang deposits at Daxinzhuang"). The source is a doctoral dissertation, but it seems to have a decent number of citations according to Scholar, so I think it's fine to use. Earwig's clear for both articles and no other issues I can see, so gtg once the end-of-sentence cites are added. AryKun (talk) 13:28, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
