On your trips to Beijing, do you find the signs there have less errors, or about the same quality? Also, at the airport, are the signs better quality than the metro stations? I don't know if there is any deduction one can make from these comparisons. Hey also, since China is hosting the 2008 Olympics, IOC probably would inspect the major cities many times. Do you think they would make suggestions to whoever is in charge, to make these signs correctly? Anyways, I don't know if any of mine suggestions are relevant given my limited knowledge, but I hope to help in anyway I can. Qingsi, how much effort would it entail to do the wiki-style website you mentioned. (for those of us less technically inclined) p.s. if anyone is feeling really rebellious, I suppose one can go post one's own signs next to the mis-spelled ones. I don't know how much trouble it would bring you with the authorities. |
