editTai Chi Tao seems to be more popular: [1]. Only 32 sites use the pinyin. --Jiang 09:01, 24 Dec 2003 (UTC)
- Move away. I did "Dai Chuanxian" because the Examination Yuan calls him that (in Chinese). --Menchi (Talk)â 09:09, 24 Dec 2003 (UTC)
- This is not even an ambiguous case. Look at Talk:Chang Hsüeh-liang#Pinyin or W-G. --Menchi (Talk)â 09:27, 24 Dec 2003 (UTC)
Or "Tai Chi-tao"? But the first few links refer to Tai Chi and Tao - not the person, i believe: [5]. But since he lived under the ROC... --Jiang 09:13, 24 Dec 2003 (UTC)
- It's probably hyphenated and correctly (de)capitalized. This isn't like Chen Ning Yang, I believe. Tai wasn't westernized to the degree like Yang at all from what I can tell. And that he isn't Cantonese at all (Cantonese names are traditionally in the "Chen Ning Yang" category). --Menchi (Talk)â 09:20, 24 Dec 2003 (UTC)
This still beats the 32: [6]. --Jiang 09:26, 24 Dec 2003 (UTC)
It seems his involvement with Chinese Socialism is not mentioned in the paragraph, can anyone add to that? Thanks.

The request to rename this article to Dai Jitao has been carried out. |
Tai Chi-tao → Dai Jitao – Per WP:PINYIN and Google Ngram. "Tai Chi-tao" isn't even as common as Tai Chi-t'ao (or Tai Chi-t’ao) with an apostrophe, [7]. The other Western European wikis (German, Norwegian and Swedish) all use "Dai Jitao". Timmyshin (talk) 05:37, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
- Support per WP:PINYIN and usual practice at Wikipedia. Unless the subject is extremely well know by another name (e.g. Sun Yat-sen, T. V. Soong) or largely notable for activities in Taiwan after 1949 (cf. Chang Li-sheng and Wei Tao-ming [primarily notable for activities in Taiwan but also notable for activities in China → modified Wade-Giles] vs. Yan Xishan and Li Zongren [primarily notable for activities in China but also notable for activities in Taiwan → pinyin]), the house style iterated in WP:NC-CHINA should apply, even if sources are mixed. — AjaxSmack 14:56, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
