[edit] Delete?

This sounds more like a tourist brochure than an article about tourism in China. It needs to be rewritten to get rid of endorsements, I think. Also, is this article going to cover both Chinas, the PRC, or the ROC? Comrade Tassadar 10:17, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)

It seems to be about mainland China (i.e. PRC excluding Hong Kong and Macao), though Taipei and Kaohsiung were mentioned. — Instantnood 12:07, Mar 16, 2005 (UTC)
Yeah, it seems to me like this article is barely worth its existence. Deletion, anyone? Bonus Onus 21:41, Jun 2, 2005 (UTC)
I've deleted most of the obvious travelguide stuff. --Fang Aili talk 21:44, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "China"/"PRC" vs. "mainland China" for page titles

Following the long discussion at Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (Chinese) regarding proper titling of Mainland China-related topics, polls for each single case has now been started here. Please come and join the discussion, and cast your vote. Thank you. — Instantnood 14:55, Apr 9, 2005 (UTC)

There should probably be separate articles for the PRC, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. You could probably divide the PRC into various regions also, if there's enough text. --Fang Aili talk 21:44, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Does anyone know the rule that .....

A foreigner is to stay in China longer than 24 hours, he / she has to register their residential address with a local police station??? I have been told by a local authority that if my stay is longer than 72 hours without notice to the local police station, I have to get a fine of RMB100 with 7 pieces of papers to be signed by the offender, who can not keep the copies of the signed document.

I have tried to search the website of 上海市出入境管理局电子政务平台 and Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau but can not find the relevant information. All I have got is the page of

http://www.bjgaj.gov.cn/epolice/zhusu.htm

in which there is no such stories about the 24 hour- or 72 hour-delay of notice. Would anyone please verify it. If this is true, please add the information to the article

[edit] Finally find some.....

  • I found 中华人民共和国外国人入境出境管理法实施细则 at

http://www.gqb.gov.cn/node2/node3/node5/node9/node107/userobject7ai1372.html

in which

第三十条 外国人在中国居民家中住宿，在城镇的，须于抵达后24小时内，由留宿人或者本人持住宿人的护照、证件和留宿人的户口簿到当地公安机关申报，填写临时住宿登记表;在农村的，须于72小时内向当地派出所或者户籍办公室申报。

To be very interesting, there is no rule, in this document, which could apply for the penalty for breaching of this article. Is there any 中华人民共和国外国人入境出境管理法--实施--细--细--则???

Since all the relevant documents don't have the clear document history & numbers, I have been very confused which one is active and which is ceased to be effective.

Have a look at these links

http://www.fmcoprc.gov.hk/chn/lsfw/flzn/t9777.htm

http://www.fmcoprc.gov.hk/chn/lsfw/flzn/t9778.htm

Sadly enough, the only link that I consider as authentic can not be opened at

中华人民共和国外国人入境出境管理法 - http://leshou.com/show/140282

it returns an Error 404: /page/flfg/smflfg\fg9.jsp

there is no alternative for me to access to this link. Goodness me, lots of headaches ahead. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.52.66.11 (talk) 05:22, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "World Park" and "Beijing World Park"

I have just found these articles (which may become merged).

Someone qualified can decide about mentioning them and/or their topic(s) in this article. -- Wavelength (talk) 05:08, 21 May 2008 (UTC) (edited -- Wavelength (talk) 15:46, 21 May 2008 (UTC))
