::::::::{{Tq|I have no problem with mentioning Taiwan's controversial status in the intro.}}. Great !, '''so you agree on mentioning the fact that Taiwan is a “partially recognized state” in the intro ?'''

::::::::{{Tq|It's not just the U.S., the source I provided before already says there are also a number of major countries that hold the same view}}. Perhaps saying “western” instead of “major” will be more accurate, either way, they are a small minority in the international community and are not anywhere close to being a majority.

:::::::::Yes, something like that is fine.

:::::::::"major countries" means well-known and influential countries. It does not mean the majority of countries. [[User:Matt Smith|Matt Smith]] ([[User talk:Matt Smith|talk]]) 15:34, 17 March 2023 (UTC)

:The situation is different, because Taiwan did not "breakaway", instead it was the other way around. So we don't have to add confusion by making the two articles alike. [[User:Graeme Bartlett|Graeme Bartlett]] ([[User talk:Graeme Bartlett|talk]]) 05:41, 16 March 2023 (UTC)

::Without arguing about this “breakaway” point, just leave it for now. It should be said that the [[Republic of China]] is “''is an unrecognised state that is internationally recognised as a part of China ([[People's Republic of China]]).''”, or at bare minimum it should be said that it’s a [[List of states with limited recognition|partially recognized state]] in the first two lines in the article just like [[Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic]], [[Kosovo]], and [[South Ossetia]] [[User:Stephan rostie|Stephan rostie]] ([[User talk:Stephan rostie|talk]]) 09:35, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
