Tien vs Tian
editIt seems that there has been a dispute over the spelling of her name more than once. I've tried to look into the few sources that are in English and none of them seem to mention her name. If it were up to Google, 'Hebe Tian' gets far more hits than 'Hebe Tien', but I would hate to leave it up to Google. Can anybody provide even a somewhat reliable source for one of the two names? -- Fyrefly (talk) 19:30, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
- It looks like Hebe is one of those artists that goes by her first name only. That being said, "Tien" is the Wade–Giles romanization, which is the standard for names from Taiwan, while "Tian" is the mainland China Hanyu Pinyin romanization that might be more common just based on the sheer number of people/sites that might use that one. I think the rule for English names for Taiwanese artists is generally to keep the Wade-Giles romanization unless an artist specifically uses another romanization (though those are very much the exception). -Multivariable (talk) 21:02, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
- I don't know much of anything about this. Maybe a comment or two in the code might dissuade people from editing it. -- Fyrefly (talk) 21:45, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
- My rule of thumb is to go by the name that an album is released with but it doesn't help here. Because she goes by 'Hebe' when with S.H.E and Chinese name on her solo ablum. I tend to agree that it should remain as 'Tien' unless there's s reliable source.--Michaela den (talk) 10:17, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
- I'm going with Tien. She goes by Hebe, not Tien, so there is no need to worry of that. Plus, she is Taiwanese. Taiwanese romanization goes with Tien instead of Tian. Hopefully you understand.

Vocal Range
editElla have a very wide range, too. She is Soprano and alto when she is singing in the group, but have you seen her imitating Andy Lau from time to time? THAT is not easy for a female voice to do to match a male tenor's lowest range, or a male baritone's mid-range. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.184.38.35 (talk) 08:26, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
