Hong Kong To-do: edit purge Clean up all MTR station pages. They are literally all over the place. Two model pages are Tsing Yi Station and Sheung Shui Station. They each describe a feature special to the station, Station layout, exit, and connections, as well as neighbouring stations and the station "box". We will also need plenty of updated pictures (e.g. removing all KCR-related images except those on the KCR article). Check that all pages have basically the same language structure as Tsing Yi Station and Sheung Shui Station. Links to location maps are good too. (Should also perform these checks on Chinese Wikipedia.) Clean-up pages that link with TVB, especially its series pages.

[edit] Structure of article

Ummm..... could we make this article specify what beer company it is talking about, at the least?

i think it's talking about chinese beers in general. so far theyre pretty unremarkable, but the Tsingtao Brewery article is the one about a specific company. Nateji77 05:19, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

Tsingtao's market dominance earns it a paragraph to itself, but in the current version, following my restructure, I think it's clear that most of the article is talking about Chinese beers in general, not just one company. Rodparkes 02:10, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Use of formaldehyde

Formaldehyde? What is the source of the author's information? This doesn't sound right to me. If it is, which specific Chinese beers contain this carcinogen?

See these articles from Chinese national newspapers: http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/english/doc/2005-07/12/content_459503.htm and http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/200507/15/eng20050715_196351.html Rodparkes 02:10, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] New company

New company for evaluation: 莫干山泉啤酒有限公司 ("Moganshan spring beer limited company" of Deqing County, Huzhou, Zhejiang, China). Badagnani 19:21, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Maize (corn)

Isn't some Chinese beer brewed with maize as an adjunct? The article only mentions rice and rye. Badagnani 06:55, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
