Talk:ChinesePod
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] = Deletion
= Language note, If the team have better English Language skills - they use a lot of loose "slangy" terms, they would often find there is a better translation in English (UK) than they are using.Having said that this is a good course. Their is a slant towards Local Shanghainese of course,Presenter Zhou does not have the most standard accent - (comment from Chinese relatives)
I removed the request for deletion (in regards to notability) owing to the fact that ChinesePod has been mentioned on NPR and the Shanghai Morning Post and is ranked highly by Yahoo. It also apparently has in excess of 10,000 downloads a day and is the 3rd most popular podcast in China. Because of the rising status of China, and hence interest in spoken Mandarin, it's likely (although not assured) that the visability and presence of this service will continue to increase as well.--Daveswagon 03:43, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
