Points forts
Points faibles
  • Bloqué dans la république populaire de Chine (voir la blocage des projets Wikimédia).
  • Due to the cultural difference and the difference in translation among PRC, HK, TW and other communities, there are often disputes and edit conflicts, especially for political articles. Thus, the time consuming process of dispute resolution and consensus building is required.
  • Absence of software robots for vandal fighting.
  • Most users good at translation do not have sufficient time, and those who have sufficient time are weak in translation. As a result, many articles are left partially translated.

Fonctionnalités

What language features are challenging?
  • At least two main writing systems exist - chinois traditionel et simplifié Until January 2005, zh.wp was a mix of articles of both types depending on the origin of the article creator/editors. User:Mountain helped create a generic automated mapping system which has helped other languages as well, such as Serbian. See the article: Automatic conversion between simplified and traditional Chinese
What would surprise the outside reader about the community?
  • Even though it is generally blocked in the PRC, a significant number of core contributors are able to use proxy software to get to Wikipedia.
  • Community makeup - one quarter from Hong Kong, one quarter from Taiwan, and the rest smaller numbers from China, US, Canada, Singapore, Malaysia and other locations. (As of end of 2006, see CWMC 2006)
