A few minor things that could be added moving forward (not necessary for a GA pass, but more for expansion to move towards feature article status):
- The latter half of the "description" section could be pulled out into an "origin" section.
- I am curious about the Iranian origin theory mentioned. Could added a sentence or two to describe this further, if appropriate
Doing...--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 07:05, 30 September 2019 (UTC)
Done. Apparently, Przyluksi discusses Neo-Babylonian influence, not Iranian. Directly cited and expanded now.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 19:47, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
- The article and sources give mention to the 10 precepts; could expand to further delineate the differences between these two.
- There are too little sources about this in English language. It could be done by someone familiar and versed in Chinese or Japanese-language scholarship, though. Not me.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 07:05, 30 September 2019 (UTC)
Cheers, Tea with toast (話) 03:19, 30 September 2019 (UTC)

- @Farang Rak Tham: Great job with the edits. It's looking more polished now. Just need a source to support the sentence in the intro that this was something that was practiced back in 7th-10th century China. I'll pass the article once that is done. Tea with toast (話) 21:26, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
- That's already in the body of the text, Tea with toast. Under Eight precepts#History. It is therefore not required to put another citation in the lead. Unless you think it is controversial, that is.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 00:56, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
- Tea with toast, a friendly reminder.-Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 12:47, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
