Two model pages are Tsing Yi Station and Sheung Shui Station. They each describe a feature special to the station, Station layout, exit, and connections, as well as neighbouring stations and the station "box". We will also need plenty of updated pictures (e.g. removing all KCR-related images except those on the KCR article). Check that all pages have basically the same language structure as Tsing Yi Station and Sheung Shui Station. Links to location maps are good too. (Should also perform these checks on Chinese Wikipedia.) Clean-up pages that link with TVB, especially its series pages.

[edit] Move proposal

[edit] Shiratamas

What are shiratamas? Badagnani 20:25, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

It refers to shiratama (白玉, shiratama^?), which is dango and be made from glutinous rice flour. But does the plural form need? --Nightshadow28 15:41, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Filled mochi?

Are the mochi pieces filled, as in the filled balls of tangyuan? Badagnani 22:01, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

No. The dumpling or the mochi used for oshiruko is not filled with sweet bean paste. --Nightshadow28 15:55, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

When glutinous rice flour dumplings are used, are they round (spherical), like those of tangyuan? Badagnani 17:18, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Box

Box needs romanization for Japanese name(s). Badagnani 02:54, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Box still needs romanization for Japanese name(s). Badagnani 04:53, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Chinese Name

I thought 紅豆湯 is the more common chinese name for this. Doesnt 紅豆粥 usually have other beans or rice in them? And how to add 紅豆沙 on the template? I think it belongs on here too.Ian Kiu 04:28, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

I believe you're exactly right. Would both be considered "red bean soup," using the English name, though? The use of rice should be mentioned in the article. But isn't 湯 is a very clear soup, not a tong sui, right? Badagnani 04:33, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

紅豆湯 is already there, under "alternate name." Badagnani 04:34, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

For anyone curious there is no rice in "red bean congee". At least I personally have never seen it. Benjwong 16:36, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] お汁粉

Why was the first character of お汁粉 (the honorific "o," which is part of the name) just removed without comment? Badagnani 20:32, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

According to the guys at WP:JPN, because it's a colloquial usage. It's usage is still noted in the body of the article, by the way. Bradford44 14:44, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ochazuke

OK, I'd like your input on the title of this article, then: Ochazuke. I proposed moving it to "Chazuke," as we don't have an article entitled O-sake. Badagnani 00:52, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

Moved. ···日本穣^{? · Talk to Nihonjoe} 01:00, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Comments Bagdanani wishes addressed

These were removed from the body of the article. They were commented out, and I'm moving them here so they can actually be addressed. ···日本穣^{? · Talk to Nihonjoe} 02:10, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] China

If it's called "red bean congee," does it have rice in it? This should be mentioned.

What is sliced sugar?

[edit] Vietnam

Need name of the red bean soup there.
