Asian Literary Voices Codexery — Data & Quality

We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.

Last full accuracy audit: 2026-08-30 · 5 entries checked · 3 flagged · 4 issues confirmed · 3 corrected · 1 still open

Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Sanmao (writer) — Sanmao's original name was Chen Mao-ping (陳懋平), not 'Chen Mao-ping' as written; the character 'Mao' is 懋, not a different character.

Shen Congwen — He became a student of Professor Lin Zaiping: Shen was not formally his student; he attended his lectures.

Shin Kyung-sook — The phrasing 'only woman to win the Man Asian Literary Prize in 2011' is misleading because there was only one winner each year; she was the only winner that year, not the only woman among multiple winners.

Shin Kyung-sook — The claim that she is 'one of the group of female writers known as the 386 Generation' is inaccurate; the 386 Generation is a demographic cohort, not a formal group of female writers.
