[edit] Jade Dragon

Do the rest of you think that there is a likely link here? John Carter 18:43, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Are you wondering if the Azure Dragon myths inspired that comic book? I read the Jade Dragon article and I don't really see any similarities other than that both feature Chinese-styled dragons. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 19:18, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Fair enough. It seemed to me likely that they tried to "borrow" the concept to show some cultural literacy, but if there's no specific obvious parallels there's probably no reason to create a link between the two articles. John Carter 20:02, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Picture

Do we actually have any sources to point out that the image in the article - Image:Japan Kyoto KiyoMizuDera fountain DSC00611.jpg - is specifically of the Azure Dragon? Because that statue could be just a regular dragon. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 21:53, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Alright since nobody commented on this, I'm going to go ahead and remove the picture. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 21:34, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
