The ''Cambridge History of Ancient China'' provides much better explanations of all the processes described in this page. :In general, I also think ~~there~~this wiki ~~are~~contains far too many sub-titles, especially when the text under each title is so short, as in the Xia-Shang-Zhou section. A few good explanatory paragraphs grounded in reliable sources would be better than the bunch of ~~two~~three-line sections we have now. :Finally, I ~~am certain that~~'m the general structure of the article will not survive an FA review. The "Feudal-Absolutist-Mercantilist" structure smuggles a strong POV interpretation of economic development into the article without grounding it in reliable sources. ~~I'm~~Until ~~afraid~~we can think of a more justifiable structure, we may have to revert ~~back~~ to a ~~a pure~~boring chronological outline that goes dynasty by dynasty. :I hope this helps a little, even if I don't have time to help with the real editing work. :Cheers, [[User:Madalibi\|Madalibi]] ([[User talk:Madalibi\|talk]]) 06:32, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
