Pinyin vs WG

As the subject is from the PRC, it would be more appropriate to use Hanyu pinyin instead of Wade Giles. -- Ohc ^¡digame!_{¿que pasa?} 04:03, 30 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Good point. I added WG because it's substantially different from the standard spelling, whereas pinyin only differs in tone marks. I've now added pinyin. -Zanhe (talk) 20:18, 30 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
