CNNIC - domain name audit

[andre]

爱美.cn is up for auction on 66.cn

爱 = Love and 美 = Beauty. I translate 爱美 as something like "Love of Beauty". It will be interesting to see how much this fetches in auction.

Of further interest is that when I look it up at cwhois.cnnic.net I get the message "The domain name you queried is in auditing"

:) - guess is perhaps best translated into English as "beautiful or charming"...

I am not too surprised really, as this these two characters, are also used in a lot of adult type names (maybe not in this combination / order only).

So CNNIC must have put a mark / flag against one or both of those characters for now (until things are more settled with the mass audit, that they need to undertake).

I guess it will mean quite a lot of normal IDNs that incorporate a character that they have flagged are on hold for new registrations, for now (wonder if effects transfers too...).

Happy that I have the ones I want already that might be effected :)

Cheers, Asiaplay

Not quite. I think this is a better translation:
set great store by one's appearance; love to make up and wear beautiful clothes

Not so. One of my domains registered just after the cn rule change shows the same page. I was also contacted by dynadot to provide documentation. Photo ID etc.

:eek: lol - there is not really a direct translation for this one... but I agree includes the later sentance you suggested, as well as other things... and perhaps what you suggested is clearer for non-speakers - maybe...
Chinese into other languages can be fun sometimes :) .

So it seems that this is just the standard setting on the CNNIC system for now, until the person registering has provided all the correct documentation... makes sense I guess...

ok, thanks for clarifying zaclondon - I know what to expect on my next registration attempt for .cn with dynadot now...

Nothing new, people are occasionally flagged as being a 'fraud risk'

The email started with:

"The .CN registry is requiring documentation for all future .CN domain registrations."

Seems like across the board.
