[edit] To those who think "Q" makes a ch sound…

…you are mistaken. Pinyin is an incorrect form of Romanization presumably created by Chinese ignorant in how English works. In Pinyin, the letter "Q" makes a ch sound. Does that seem logical to anyone? "Q" is supposed to make a k sound.--71.107.171.45 04:26, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

I already told you before, this is really not a good reason for you to move the article, plus I believe those matter had been explained expressly under the Hanyu Pinyin. Eiorgiomugini 04:42, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

So, in your opinion, the article is better off under a misspelled title. That makes perfect sense. Might as well start calling him Kin Jiu-Shao.--71.107.171.45 04:48, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

hola You really needs to bring those over to the MoS talk page, where you can reach a consensus instead of complaining this issue to me. Eiorgiomugini 04:54, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

71.107.171.45, please see WP:MOS-ZH. Whether you like it or not, it reflects Wikipedia consensus, and here, we deal with things by consensus. --Nlu (talk) 15:27, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Hey, how about you guys use Hanyu Pinyin as that's the standard way to spell things from Chinese. For example, we don't call Mao Zedong "Mao Tse-Tung" anymore. Any dumbass that tries to move it to the other spelling is just wrong. Chinese3126 (talk) 02:32, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

I know there are niggers out there who just want to fuck with me ~~71.107.171.45

[edit] Pinyin & English

Why do you think that Pinyin is a romanization based on English pronunciation? It isn't. So whether Q is pronounced as ch or not is irrelevant. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.104.122.200 (talk) 06:28, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
