Reviewer: QatarStarsLeague (talk · contribs) 04:42, 4 June 2013 (UTC) This seems like an excellent, succinct article. Review will proceed in a few days. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 04:42, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks QatarStarsLeague. You'll find that much of the article is sourced to the Ars Orientalis article, which is behind a paywall at JSTOR - if you'd like a copy to check the references, drop me an email and I'll send you the PDF. Yunshui 雲‍水 10:04, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

That would be unnecessary. As long as this source properly adduces all it says it does, I will trust that is does. I other words, I will take your world for it. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 02:02, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Lead & Infobox

Both are fine!

Biography

"Hu held minor political office..." What office exactly? Please answer that question in the article if possible.

I think I got that from the Ars Orientalis source, but on closer reading it seems to refer to a quote from Wen Ruilin, which is unlikely to be factually accurate in any case; it also doesn't specify the office (just that it was in the Secretariat). Given the unreliable nature of the original source and the fact that the statement doesn't really fit into the flow of the text there anyway, I've amendeed to a slightly expanded sentence about his retirement (sourced to the more reliable Du Jun).

That is the best thing to do. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 13:33, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
