[edit] Rename？
To the Pinyin of wikt:嘻wikt:哈,Xi Ha？--Ksyrie(Talkie talkie) 00:07, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose move. All national hip hop articles are under the name of the country, then "hip hop." By the way, where did the term "xi ha" come from? Badagnani 00:12, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Merge HK+Taiwan hip hop articles to here
Chinese hip hop for me is Chinese language hip hop, not only hip hop from Mainland China. I also believe that due to the limited availability of reliable sources for all three articles, it would be better to compress them into one and work on that one, instead of trying to make each individual article Wikipedia-worthy.

- I would not oppose to merge these article into one single article called "Chinese-language hip hop," but I am pretty sure that is not how other hip hop articles are named. "Chinese hip hop" on the other hand runs into the WP:NPOV issue (I'm only talking about Taiwan). I do, however, agree to merge the HK hip hop with this article.--Jerry 23:38, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

- Jerry, are you from Taiwan, also know as Republic of China and where the people are Chinese and speak dialects of Chinese. If this article was named Hip Hop from Mainland China, from the People's Republic of China or similar, I could understand your worries because of WP:NPOV. However, I believe that Chinese, as in Chinese hip hop refers to the language, obviously not the People's Republic. Would you agree? Poeloq (talk) 14:32, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

- I agree that it is used to refer to the language. However, it causes confusions as it people unfamiliar with the issue might not know. Also, I'm not sure, but I think Taiwanese hip hop also refer to the language.--Jerry 21:21, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

- Do not merge - These are different countries and the dynamics of their hip-hop scenes are different. We should not move Singaporean hip hop here either. The article is not about hip hop in the Chinese language, as none of the national hip hop articles group hip hop by language. "China" means "mainland China" in the English vernacular, and at Wikipedia. Badagnani (talk) 16:59, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- Do not merge - The hip-hop in these countries differs not only in subject matter and cultural references, but in language as well (e.g. Hakka-Pac rapping in Taiwanese). I could possibly be convinced there should be an (East) Asian Hip-Hop article, with sections for each country. Chewyrunt (talk) 01:43, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
