[edit] Supercentenarians

Why is she not on the list of living supercentenarians? Has her age not been confirmed? -Lasunncty 22:33, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

She was not added into the abovementioned list as I (& incl. those who make some later edits) do not have any prior knowledge of its existence in the first place. Her age & DOB is officially mentioned in The Straits Times on numerous occasions as cited in the "References" section where many of the sources of this article were based upon. -- Aldwinteo 01:56, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] GA Review

This review is transcluded from Talk:Teresa Hsu Chih/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Hello. I will be doing the Good Article review for this article. Here are some things I think need improving:

  • "7 July 1897" - link full dates --> "7 July 1897"
Y Done. -- Aldwinteo (talk) 03:35, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
  • "didn't" - spell out all contractions --> "did not"
Y Done. -- Aldwinteo (talk) 03:35, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
  • "When Hsu was young, her father walked out on the family for another woman." - source?
  • "In her mid-50s, she decided to return home to Penang to be with her mother." - source that was the reason?
Y Done: Yup, the relevant source was provided earlier but was mistakenly placed on a line after. Pse see diff for details. -- Aldwinteo (talk) 03:35, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
  • "The Rotary Club agreed to finance the home on condition that the club take over the running of it. The sisters handed the deeds over to the Society for the Aged Sick, an association formed by the Rotary Club members. The society built three blocks to house the increasing residents and Hsu remained the home's matron until 1980, when she was asked to retire at 83." - source for these sentences?
Y Done: Same reason as above. Pse see diff for details. -- Aldwinteo (talk) 03:35, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

That's it. The article will be on hold for seven days to allow for improvements. Nikki311 00:52, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
