Nondifferentiation of -n and -ng

I don't know exactly what explains the spellings Jianxi, 'Kuomingtang', 'Xingjiang'/'Singkiang', Qinling/Qingling[1][2], Xingqing/Xinqing- [3], Xingping and Xinping are noted as confusable on Xingping, Guangxi/Citations:Guanxi, 'Jingsha', 'Beigang' for Beigan, 'Tungying' (when referring to Tungyin Citations:Tungyin), Mingfeng/Minfeng diff, Nuangdong/Nuandong - diff vs [4], Fenxian/Fengxian [5], Shaangxi, 'Shangtung' (Shandong [6] etc), [7] 427th warning Pinhhai/Pinghai, Tongyong Pinyin: Cinpu/Cingpu [8], 'Guandong', Hsin/Hsing, Hsin/Hsing, maybe the second g in Ching-chong, Yinchuan and 'Yingchuan'[9], 'Jin'an' and 'Chingkankousaurus', but I have a strong suspicion that it has something to do with the infernal problem of Nondifferentiation of -n and -ng. This may be a kind of trend among misspellings which should be recognized, anticipated and explained to Wiktionary readers. --Geographyinitiative (talk) 17:02, 20 August 2021 (UTC)
