The Chinese issue: I don't see the Chinese community of any hope considering the mainland Chinese community is now basically a rotten Apple, with acts of stalking against Hong Kong and Taiwan editors, plus history revisionism being carried out within articles by mainland editors ans tolerated by admins of the same region, while, at the same time, manipulate local community discussion and opinion when such acts are brought into open discussion.
Of course this won't get discussed as the scale is too large for even Hong Kong and Taurean editors to properly draft something for the wider movement to access (plus the Orwellian security law stomped on Hong Kong editors last year) (plus the hostility of those editors). ------------ Oh and back to the issue: in Chinese Wikipedia, there's a requirement to only state your opinion regarding one matter once if you want so, and some pro-CCP editors from China basically manipulate such thing and wrote one whole page of statements opposing things such as them opposing Hong Kong independence (once), another one about Taiwan independence (etc), highlighted in deep red and make it so appeaeant with other font modifiers. So basically, if you want to troll in user pages (not staying the original person doing so), there are numerous loopholes that, if editors are in good faith, would not have even thought of even if they are pretending to be violators. 💁 William.
