  • MOS:BADITALICS, I suggest the "'''不爱思考得猪 is..." in the first line of italics be changed into "<span style="font-family:Georgia,'DejaVu Serif','STFangsong','FangSong'">不爱思考得猪</span> '''is..."(copied from zh:Template:Talk_quote_inline/styles.css.) --魔琴 (Zauber Violino) (talk) 23:04, 31 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Regarding the last paragraph, there is much evidence that some editors have been harassed by agents acting on the orders of China's government. The fact that WMC's spokespeople were not aware of any such harassment perhaps speaks more about their own behavioural biases in favour of the Chinese government, rather than the government's benevolence towards Wikimedians. In any case, the main point here is that when even prominent celebrities who have operated in the open for years suddenly get turned against by the regime, how can a little editor with skepticism of the regime claim safety? Great commentary, thank you 不爱思考得猪. Deryck C. 13:59, 1 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Thank you for sharing your observations and perspectives. A hard decision had to be made against WMC members, and in hindsight, it was the right decision. WMC may have some valid points in their argument/polemic, but in the end, the common good of our global community shall prevail. Normchou💬 18:17, 1 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

  • 不爱思考得猪, Great piece. I never suspected that mainland Chinese people learned that Taiwan is a Chinese province, which explains a lot about the way they think. Recalling the Munich Agreement makes me uncomfortable, but doing something similar with neighbor countries is a logical step for the Chinese government : if they concede, they are weak. Hence...

    • Thanks Cantons-de-l'Est. China's gov is testing the waters right now, if the international community shows no reactions, things will escalate over time. 不爱思考得猪 (talk) 18:33, 30 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
