Shuangyu edit

  • ... that Shuangyu, an international entrepôt used by Portuguese, Japanese and Chinese traders and smugglers, was destroyed by the Ming dynasty in 1548?

Created by Underbar dk (talk). Nominated by Zanhe (talk) at 06:17, 17 April 2016 (UTC).

  • Created two days before nomination, no obvious neutrality/writing issues (I made some small fixes in the article myself). Copyvio search turned up nothing. Hook is interesting enough and the claim is verifiable from the Wills citation (Google Books). Good to go. (I made a small edit to the hook by linking "entrepôt".) —Nizolan (talk) 14:09, 18 April 2016 (UTC)
