The placeholder “张三 (Zhang San)” links to a wiki without any Chinese example
I find this article exceedingly helpful and “shout out” to all those who developed it.
I do have a minor suggestion based on one observation: the so-called placeholder “张 (Zhang)” or “张三 (Zhang San)” used in § 1 Chinese classifier#Usage—just above the start of § 1.1 Chinese classifier#Specialized uses)—links to a fragment that does not yet exist (List of placeholder names by language#Mandarin). To be clear, the wiki List of placeholder names by language exists, and the Mandarin fragment doesn’t. As such, the link List of placeholder names by language#Mandarin may be considered “empty” and the use of the placeholder here pedagogically confusing. Would a domain expert be so kind as to address this omission or the source of this confusion?
Thanks again for all the authors’ efforts on this piece!
Respectfully,
