Central Investigation Team

We need to create a new page about the "Central Investigation Team" (中央专案组) mentioned by bookseller Lam Wing-kee. It is given other English names, including “Central Special Unit”, "Central Examination Group". Maybe reference the older Central Case Examination Group. Cossaxx (talk) 04:56, 5 July 2016 (UTC)

Since all media outlets say it is the same unit from the Cultural Revolution, I believe we should add new developments right into the Central Case Examination Group page and redirect all other names into that article. _dk (talk)

I am starting a Good article review for Causeway Bay Books disappearances. Shearonink (talk) 14:28, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

Passes the threshold "immediate failure" criteria: No cleanup banners, no obvious copyright infringements, etc. Shearonink (talk) 20:31, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

---

seems well-written, at first impression I can find no obvious issues.

1. Is it well written?

   A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:

   B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:

2. Is it verifiable with no original research?

   A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:

   B. All in-line citations are from reliable sources, including those for direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counter-intuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons—science-based articles should follow the scientific citation guidelines:

   I did a spot-check of several of the Chinese-lkanguage references using Google Translate - so far as I can tell the references are all in order with the exception of Reference #51 - it is basically a bare URL. Please fill it out more completely.

Thanks for fixing that ref. Shearonink (talk) 22:40, 27 October 2016 (UTC)

1. C. It contains no original research:

   D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:

2. Is it broad in its coverage?

   A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:

   B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):

3. Is it neutral?

   It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:

   the article's authors are to be commended for keeping the tone dispassionate

4. Is it stable?

   It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:

5. Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?

   A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content:

   B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:

6. Overall:

   Pass or Fail:

   pending my checking of the references. Shearonink (talk) 21:06, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

   So far as I can tell all the Chinese-language references check out. Review is now On hold pending Reference #51 being filled out more completely. Shearonink (talk) 06:59, 27 October 2016 (UTC)

   Refence #51 has been filled-out, congratulations to all the editors - it's a Good article. Shearonink (talk) 22:40, 27 October 2016 (UTC)

Addition to Disappearances of Gui Minhai and Lee Bo

Under the Disappearances for Gui Minhai, the following could be added: Gui's daughter who is in the U.K., did not think that her father returned to China out of his own will.

Under Lee Bo's section: The Hong Kong police received a nine-word notification from the Chinese province of Guangdong that Lee was in China but there was no specification of what he was doing there. The Hong Kong Secretary of Security had written to request access to Lee and has not received any information on the other missing men.[1] The Phoenix TV reported that Lee voluntarily handed himself over to the Chinese to assist in investigations but his travel document was found after the disappearance. There was no record of Lee crossing the border to mainland. The U.K. said the Lee most likely did not voluntarily hand himself to the Chinese government.[2] Ellenchannn (talk) 07:34, 20 November 2016 (UTC)
