Under the Dome (film)
edithttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Under_the_Dome_(film)
THIS IS MY FIRST CHOICE. I will include news reports and comments on this film from Chinese sources. From these articles, I will find how the film affects people's perceptions over air pollution.
Potential improvements for this topic:
- Sources for this topic all came from western newspapers. It would be better to add some academic sources. What is more, this film is about the smog pollution in China. Therefore, it may be more reasonable to add sources from Chinese newspapers, media, and academic papers.
- The structure of this page is confusing and a bit 'chaotic'. For example, the contributor put government responses, public responses and impacts on market all in the Release section. Clearly, these three should be in different sections.

Still trying to find some sources from Chinese Newspapers. A bit hard because this documentary was banned 1 week after released.

SECONDARY OPTION. BUT I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO CREATE A NEW PAGE "PARADE BLUE", WHICH REFERS TO THE GOOD AIR QUALITY DURING THE VICTORY PARADE IN EARLY SEPTEMBER, 2015.

I think "Under the Dome" is a great choice....
editFor your second point, reorganizing the responses, I would suggest creating a section called "Reactions" and then three subsections (Government reaction, etc.) as you have outlined. I look forward to seeing the Chinese perspectives you add! Eric WritingMan (talk) 16:23, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
