Interesting article. Article is new enough (created on 17 November). Long enough (3571). However there are large sections of uncited content such as the 1st paragraph in "early life", last sentence of 2nd paragraph of "Northern Chinese bandit", and 2nd paragraph of "Military activities. This will need to be sorted before I can proceed with the rest of the review. Cowlibob (talk) 22:10, 30 November 2019 (UTC)
- @Roniius: Courtesy ping for the nominator to return to this nomination. Cowlibob (talk) 12:46, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
- @Cowlibob: I have addressed the reference problem. Roniius (talk) 01:28, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
- @Roniius: Thanks for adding the refs. However the last three sentences in the popular culture section are unreferenced. Also what does horse criminal mean? Do you mean that he stole horses or that he was a bandit who rode horses when he was stealing?Cowlibob (talk) 17:19, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
- @Cowlibob: Hi - Horse Criminal is a bad translation I made of Chinese mazei, which is commonly translated in English historical communities as Mounted Bandit. I will find references for the popular culture section.
- @Roniius: This article requires significant copyediting which I'm happy to help with as long you could provide some clarifications on the article based on the references.
