Shunji Temple

One of the old Tianhou Temples was a tourist attraction listed among Shanghai's traditional 8 Sights, though possibly it wasn't this one. — LlywelynII 03:30, 22 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

This has a bunch of stuff in Chinese about the history of the temple's former location downtown:

  • Feng, Meichun (2008), "天后宫散记", 《上海地方志》, Shanghai: Shanghai Archives {{citation}}: Unknown parameter |authormask= ignored (|author-mask= suggested) (help).

As far as I can tell it says the temple was built (not destroyed) in 1883 and it might be right in that, while the current source is wrong. It also suggests that the temple was moved to Songjiang in the 2000s rather than in the late 1970s and that's certainly wrong. Still, most of it seems interested and worthy of inclusion. — LlywelynII 02:22, 22 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

I'll help with the translation tomorrow morning (it's 10PM as of the time I'm writing this). Thanks for letting me know and help! Kiteinthewind Leave a message! 05:07, 22 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
I didn't see any more from Mr Kite but Mr Lu translated the Tianfei article here. — LlywelynII 14:05, 6 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
I translated a small portion. It was not that easy to translate, and I must say that I forgot to get back to it later. If/when I have a lot of time (and remember to do so - sorry) I'll get back to it. --Nlu (talk) 01:26, 29 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Just a note that (one of) the promoting editor(s) mucked up the grammar, spelling, and links, so that the hook read

... that since it honors a nationally illegal cult, suburban Shanghai's Tianfei Palace is officially classified as a museum?

for much of its time on the front page, despite that being an untrue statement with either a missing comma or one too many. The correct and originally approved hook has been placed at the top of this page. — LlywelynII 08:17, 14 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
