Peer Review for AIDS Article edit

Peer review of Brett Reichman edits:

  • Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?
The addition to the article flowed smoothly with the existing information provided, so it did not stick out and still provided new information. 
  • Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?
The article is neutral and unbiased. 
  • Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?
The edits are neutral and unbiased, but still adds more information in the article. 
  • Check the citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article?
The information is cited correctly and the links work. 
  • Is each fact supported by an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?
The additions are cited correctly.
  • Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that should be added?
The information is up to date. 

Overall, the addition to the article was good. If possible, I think putting in an example of his collected works can further support Reichman's position in the politics of gay culture.

Ho Yow edit

Ho Yow From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Ho Yow served as Chinese consulate general of San Francisco during a part of San Francisco plague. His service as consulate general lasted from 1987 to 1902. Ho Yow was born in Hong Kong to a wealthy Guangzhou family.

(I want to put in his chinese name)

Chinese Consulate General[edit] At the age of 28, Ho was appointed as vice consul of the San Francisco Chinese Consulate to general consul Chang Yin Tang in 1987. Ho was soon promoted to consulate general, with the goal increasing trade relations between the United States and China, serving to the prosperity of Chinatown merchants. Notably in 1899, Ho organized a successful Chinese parade during San Francisco's Fourth of July Celebration.[1]

In May 16 1900, after confirmation of several Chinese deaths due to bubonic plague, Ho along with leaders of the San Francisco Chinese community recommended vaccinations to their associations and tongs. This recommendation was met with resistance, however Consul Ho and Six Companies tried to calm the concerns. Despite the effort, only 53 Chinese were vaccinated compared to the 530 Japanese and 234 of other races.[1]

Six Companies had filed grievances against Ho, and sent a list of complaints against Ho to the Chinese Imperial government. One of the complaints was the taking of bribes. Another concern was his lack of aggression during the debates on extending the Chinese Exclusion Act. The Chinese Exclusion Act was extended for 10 more years. Ho's title as consulate general was recalled by the Imperial government in 1902.[1]

(He also had a life in SF after consulate general as head of businesses)

(I want to put in his death)
