Zhang Xu (calligrapher)Zhang Xu – The go player's name is romanized either as Cho U or Chang Hsu. --Relisted. George Ho (talk) 04:19, 11 May 2015 (UTC) Timmyshin (talk) 22:01, 4 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

  • Comment being Taiwanese, he should also be accessible from the pinyin versions (though a hatnote can be used) someone should add a Chinese infobox to the weiqi player's article -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 23:06, 4 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose some sources appear to also use the pinyin for the Go player. In ictu oculi (talk) 23:33, 4 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
  • Support per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Zhang Xu is one of the most famous calligraphers in Chinese history, whose style has been studied and emulated for more than a millennium. There are hundreds of English books discussing his art, see Google books, and 60,000+ in Chinese. The go player rarely uses the spelling Zhang Xu, and even if he did, he is still far less known than the calligrapher. -Zanhe (talk) 18:24, 5 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
