  • New enough, interesting, long enough, hook is sourced to reliable source. No close paraphrasing or neutrality detected. Good to go.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 18:58, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
  • The article says the pagoda was built to house the remains of Wansong Xingxiu, not to memorialize him. Yoninah (talk) 10:27, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Thanks for pointing that out. The Chinese article says that it is sepulchral pagoda, but I was not certain from the sources I looked at. However, I have just checked some other Chinese sources, and they confirm that it was a sepulchral pagoda (Chinese 墓塔), so I have added a reference to the article and revised the wording of the hook.
