Wáng Tíngchén 王廷陳 (c. 1490s – c. 1550s), zì Zhìqīn 稚欽, hào Mèngzé 夢澤, of Huánggāng 黄岡 (Húběi). Took the jìnshì in Zhèngdé 12 (1517) and was selected as Shùjíshì in the Hànlín. He submitted a yánshì (memorial-of-affairs) for which he was tíngzhàng (caned at court) and demoted out to Yùzhōu zhīzhōu. The remainder of his life was spent in semi-retirement; the Míngshǐ literary-garden biography records him as a shì cái ào wù (“relied-on-talent, contemptuous-of-things”) man who, in the Sìkù tíyào’s frank judgement, had a rather narrow qìliàng (vessel-capacity), but whose poetry — especially the five-character regulated — was praised by Wáng Shìzhēn (Yìyuàn zhīyán) as the chángchéng of his oeuvre and by Zhū Yízūn (Jìngzhìjū shīhuà) for its “autumn-bamboo” tone. He is normally placed in the Hé Jǐngmíng literary orbit. His collection is the Mèngzé jí KR4e0178. Lifedates not securely established; CBDB (34668) records only zero markers.
