A search on Google shows a puny 842 pages on "Mandopop". I listen to Mandarin pop, I have never heard of the term Mandopop. Mandarin pop is obviously a much better alternative for this virtually non-existent term. Mandel 16:17, 29 September 2005 (UTC)

Why does half of this page talk about Hokkien pop, this is suppose to be a page about Mandopop

Because many singers are from Taiwan sing in both languages. Perhaps there should be a page for Hokkien pop, but it should be called Taiwanese pop, because most of it is from Taiwan. The only singer outside of Taiwan who sings in Taiwanese (or Hokkien) is Eric Moo from Malaysia.

Perhaps there should be separate Taiwanese pop page. After all, Taiwanese are well represented overseas...
