The example of the meme
editUser:Belbury, thanks for making a nice version of the meme to illustrate it, however, as a Chinese speaker, the text doesn't really match. The text says "Good job!" However, the score and the emoji show something bad happening. I think it should show the score going up in green and a happy face/thumbs up emoji to better match the Chinese text. Or was sarcasm intended? Félix An (talk) 01:15, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
- It's a literal redraw of a random example taken from a Google Image search, I assumed that the text (which I'd autotranslated out of curiosity) was indeed meant to be sarcastic.
- Happy to amend the illustration if someone familiar with the meme's usage can confirm that I've accidentally picked an outlier, though. Belbury (talk) 08:21, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
There needs to be a section under "Misconceptions" explaining how Zhima Credit used to be confused with Social Credit.
editUser:JArthur1984, you seem to be knowledgeable about this subject. Could you please add this piece of info? Thanks!
Here is an example of this from NBC: https://youtube.com/watch?v=0cGB8dCDf3c?feature=shared&t=68

- Good idea, thank you, I’ll take a look to see if I have an RS addressing this point. JArthur1984 (talk) 11:29, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Félix An I've made an addition to address this point and misconceptions arising from the other 2015 private pilot programs. I'm glad you raised this issue, thank you. JArthur1984 (talk) 12:31, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
Social credit score is a myth
editSocial credit score shouldn't be confused with social credit system. It a myth yet on the introduction, there is a terrible explanation for that. It's too wordy and doesn't get to the point. It is simply not written well and should be improved without overwhelming or trying to fit everything in except ironically the most important part. The sad thing is that people are quoting the Wikipedia article as proof that social credit score is real because the article is not clear enough. And so it needs to be improved. 49.186.64.179 (talk) 20:31, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- Sorry if I was too harsh. Rest of article is decent and responsible to the facts. But made one key improvement to dispel a common myth of social credit score, and emphasized the system doesn’t monitor or punish people for having a low score. And MERICS explains system only punishes legal violations, not low scores. And it does not constantly monitor individual behavior. I believe such clarifications will dispel the myth instead of accidentally perpetrating it like with previous version. 49.186.64.179 (talk) 21:01, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
