== Names of people == | |||
Names of people should not use hyphens. They should be written in the "Familyname Namename" structure. For example, for the first President of the People's Republic of China (PRC), use ''Mao Zedong'', '''not''' ''Mao Ze-dong'', ''Mao Tsetung'', ''Mao Tse-tung'', or any casing variant of those (''Mao Tse-Tung'', etc). Similarly, for the 7th President of the PRC, use ''Xi Jinping'', '''not''' ''Xi Jin-ping'' or other variants. This also applies to names that are presumed to be Chinese in origin; write {{short|ch737|Yang Wenli}}, '''not''' ''Yang Wen-li'' or ''Yang Wen-Li''. | |||
