Caution

This article is seriously in need of better corroboration. Most of the information was gleaned from news reports and online webpages whose long-term value as sources is doubtful, but which nonetheless have a ring of truth about them. Readers should use this information with caution until better corroboration can be established. Even so, the information on hutongs which is coming out in bits and pieces in English because of the Olympic games was worth capturing. Roger Lohmann 15:27, 27 July 2008 (CDT)

Title

I think it should be Hutong, Beijing because otherwise it looks like 'Hutong' is another name for Beijing. John Stephenson 08:03, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
