This article has almost nothing to do with Chinese society as a subject. A copy of the contents is here: Cambridge University Hong Kong and China Affairs Society 68.100.72.36 02:58, 24 May 2005 (UTC)

Completely agree. I've made it a redirect temporarily - but a fuller article is needed. Mpntod July 2, 2005 09:15 (UTC)

[edit] POV

This article seems to be biased against the PRC government. Notably, it lacks the gender equality policies that the communists enacted on coming to power. Superdantaylor 15:48, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure why this article exists as a subject separate from Culture of China and the various Demographics of China articles.—Nat Krause(Talk!) 02:13, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Someone needs to read this through and edit; it's not written in a clear, cohesive way.Mathwhiz 29 02:10, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Proposing Rename and Move

I am proposing that this page move to Lifestyle in China. There is a number of major problem with this article. If there is no reasonable objection, this page WILL get moved. This is also not a majority vote. Please state your reasons and logic if you want to keep this.

  1. This page is overlapping with Culture of China.
  2. The first line said it is covering China in the heading but this article name is beyond that.
  3. The term Chinese technically covers many other areas outside mainland China. The title does not limit the region at all.
  4. The term "Chinese Society" is way too general. It will technically cover anything with Chinese, even overseas people in the U.S.
  5. If the page was moved to Lifestyle in China, it can cover things like games, education, spiritual stuff or anything having to do with "life" etc.
  6. Right now the page does not draw any line or distinction between society, customs, demographic statistics etc.
  7. Mostly the move should be made to save the page history.

This page now redirects to Chinese social relations. There Lifestyle in China now redirects to Culture of China. Most of the material have already been taken out and moved into Culture of China page. The rest are already covered in Chinese social relations. There is a huge discrepency between social information and society information that entirely does not belong here. If we are keeping one, it is chinese social relations. Benjwong 20:46, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
