Talk:Gui Hsien

RFD discussion: April 2021
Gui Hsien and Gui-hsien do not seem to exist on Internet Archive, Google Books, Google Scholar & Google. Probably would not exist as a Hanyu Pinyin-Wade-Giles combination. --Geographyinitiative (talk) 12:35, 6 April 2021 (UTC) (transferred from )
 * The only evidence I found anywhere that either word exists is the title of an article I can't find by James Marshall Plumer entitled "What is Gui-Hsien?", published in the Far East Ceramic Bulletin, Vol. 6, No. 1 1954, page 1 (University of Michigan Bibliography, p.84). Plumer's other articles are not about geography, and 'Gui-Hsien' may be the name of Guigang used to refer to a type of ceramic from the area, or it may be something else, maybe a ceramic pattern. Titles of his other works do use Wade-Giles and Wade-Giles adjacent transliterations, so his usage could very well be related to Mandarin. --Geographyinitiative (talk) 18:16, 8 April 2021 (UTC) (modified)
