[edit] Successful good article nomination

I am glad to report that this article nominee for good article status has been promoted. This is how the article, as of July 30, 2007, compares against the six good article criteria:

1. Well written?: I've done some work here, including expansion of the intro, but I don't see too much room for improvement here.

2. Factually accurate?: I fixed a few things, but generally accurate.

3. Broad in coverage?: addresses all the cultural topics of the period.

4. Neutral point of view?: Generally quite so, the work in the philosophy section is balanced. The intro was doing a little bit of cheerleading for the accomplishments of the dynasty, and we need to be especially careful to keep it within the context of ancient Chinese history rather than making general assertions about all of Chinese history.

5. Article stability? Obvious.

6. Images?: I think the image gallery works really well.

If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to take it to a GA review. Thank you to all of the editors who worked hard to bring it to this status, and congratulations. — VanTucky ^(talk) 01:15, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wikified Song Dynasty in lead

I wikified Song Dynasty in the opening sentence rather than further into the rticle. --68.9.116.76 (talk) 00:25, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
