I've added a substantial article; I haven't finished cross-linking yet, but any problems with the content are real problems, so leaping in and correcting would be nice. My first try. Markalexander100 05:53, 18 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Naming, again

I would really, really like to move this page to Du Fu. Du is now more common in western academic writing- Stephen Owen uses it, and Burton Watson uses it in his later books. Pinyin's being adopted in Taiwan. It's phonologically more accurate. And the text of the article uses Du. (FWIW, Googlefights are now about equal- Du is slightly ahead without quote marks, Tu is slightly ahead with, but the majority is small in each case).

Would any really mind if I changed it? Markalexander100 04:17, 22 Aug 2004 (UTC)
