Hyphen?

@Chhandama: Hi, correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't this page be titled "Hou Xianguang" without the hyphen? As far as I can tell from WP:CHINESE (particularly WP:ZHNAME), hyphens are not usually used for Chinese personal names, except under the Wade–Giles romanization system (or other exceptions?). I don't think the hyphenated name is more common than not for this person either, but to be honest I haven't thoroughly checked. (Also, I've made the non-hyphenated name a redirect to this one for now, if that helps to know, and I've merged the bot-created Wikidata item with an already-existing one with identifiers and links to the de-wiki, he-wiki and Wikispecies pages) Monster Iestyn (talk) 14:55, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
