Article needs literal meaning of the region's name, and Han Tu. Badagnani 07:36, 11 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Badagnani (talk) 00:38, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What is the evidence that this term is of very recent coinage (i.e. never had han tu)? This seems a bit far-fetched. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Dong_Bac&diff=prev&oldid=155174479 Badagnani 22:14, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think the burden of proof should be the other way around. Unless evidence could be provided that the region's name was written in a certain way, we should assume the default quoc ngu orthography.
