[edit] Improvements to article

Hi, Sengkang, you may want to improve the article in the following ways:

  • Since the subject of the article has a Chinese name, add the {{chinesename}} tag to the top of the article.
  • Add Template:Infobox musical artist to the article.
  • Add Wikipedia:Persondata to the article.
  • Change the heading "Musician and writing career" to "Musical and writing career".
  • Remove links from individual years (eg, "1964"). However, full dates (eg, "[[4 June]] [[1989]]") should be linked, so that users in other countries can view dates according to the preferences that their computers are set to.
  • Remove unnecessary links. You should avoid linking every single word that can possibly be linked, and only link selected terms that are related to the subject of the article or which might be unfamiliar to readers. For instance, I would remove links from terms like "music", "household", "sibling", "journalist" and "acupuncturist". However, terms like "Chinese literature", "pedagogy", "xinyao" and "folk song" should remain linked.
  • Replace the <references/> tag with {{reflist|2}}.
  • I notice that you have added some inline references to the article using <ref> and </ref>. You may want to put a reference at the end of each paragraph, even if it is to the same citation, as this shows the source of the information in that paragraph.
  • Use the {{cite book}}, {{cite news}} and {{cite web}} templates when citing books, newspaper articles and websites.
  • Add the words "In Mandarin" at the end of references to websites or other works that are in Mandarin.
  • Shift the "Notes" subsection above "References", and make it a first-level heading rather than a subsection under "References" (see "Wikipedia:Guide to layout#Standard appendices and descriptions").
