This article states that 舊金山 (Old Gold Mountain) is used to refer to all of California, but it actually specifically refers to San Francisco. I've never heard anyone call California 舊金山 except maybe in a historical sense. I don't have anything to cite, except if you go to the Taipei Taoyuan International Airport (aka Chiang Kai-Shek International Airport) website [1] and look at the To or From cities, the fifth from the bottom is 舊金山 and the flights listed are for San Francisco. I guess before I edit I'd rather have a better citation than that. Nothingedifying 05:08, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

• I've heard it used to refer to the USA -- but this is in historical texts, not by contemporary folks.... Aristophanes68 (talk) 02:34, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
