In addition to following Pinyin, the following rules apply to names of people: the second given name should be directly glued to the first given name, without separating them by hyphens, and starting the second given name with a lowercase letter. They should be written according to the following template/structure: "Familyname Namename". Examples: | |||
* For the first President of the People's Republic of China (PRC), use '''''Mao Zedong'''''. For his name, '''DO NOT''' write: ''Mao ZeDong'', ''Mao Ze-dong'', ''Mao Ze-Dong'', ''Mao Tsetung'', ''Mao TseTung'', ''Mao Tse-tung'', ''Mao Tse-Tung'', or other variants. | |||
* For the 7th President of the PRC, use '''''Xi Jinping'''''. For his name, '''DO NOT''' write: ''Xi JinPing'', ''Xi Jin-ping'', ''Xi Jin-Ping'', or other variants. | |||
This also applies to names that are presumed to be Chinese in origin. For example, use {{short|ch737|'''Yang Wenli'''}}. For his name, '''DO NOT''' write: ''Yang Wen-li'', ''Yang Wen-Li'', ''Yang WenLi'', or other variants. | |||
