To kmhkmh: I have edited the wording of the particular section to avoid any more potentially incorrect use of the word "Chinese". I have also included multiple Chinese sources, some of which originate from People's Republic of China, that describe her as "Taiwanese actress". You are quoting sources that use the word "Chinese" in the context of representing the broader ethnic Han Chinese. This is a point that has already been beaten to death on other articles related to famous Taiwanese people. The consensus is it is misleading (implying a mainland China origin) and in potential violation of the NPOV. I have already informed you the use of the adjective "Taiwanese" is the common practice, as can be seen from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_famous_taiwanese_people. Please refrain from using Chinese without the proper context.
BTW, there has never been any indication that she renounced her Taiwanese citizenship. If you want to imply otherwise, provide source or leave that issue in peace. — Preceding unsigned comment added by M3SS3NG3RZ (talk • contribs) 15:29, 8 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
I still like to see a discussion of that consensus, however for now I leave taiwanese in the article following the rationale outlined at MOS:IDENTITY and treating "taiwanese and chinese" analog to the "ethiopian and african" example.--Kmhkmh (talk) 18:38, 8 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
