Same-surname marriage

  • New enough, long enough, within policy. The hook is interesting and correctly formatted. QPQ has been done and there is no image. The hook is supported by the citations following the sentences "Tang dynasty law continued to treat same-surname marriage as a crime, punishable by two years of imprisonment.", together with "The prohibition of same-surname marriage continued in the Ming and Qing dynasties; it was abolished towards the end of the Qing dynasty via judicial reforms, allowing men and women of the same surname and different kin to marry." and "Same-surname marriage formed part of the system of opposite-sex marriage in traditional Chinese marriage, where men and women within the same extended family were not permitted to marry, just as is the case in many patriarchal societies." Foreign language sources AGF. This should be good to go. It's an interesting article and it would benefit from being expanded. Kind regards, Yakikaki (talk) 12:19, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
