I've added the hoax tag since I did some quick research and found that this is really related to Dyansty Warriors (Google results[1]). I'll remove the tag if this article is rewritten. Yanksox 03:18, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dynasty Warriors

You are absolutely correct it is related to Dynasty warriors, but remember dynasty warriors is wholly based off of The literary work by Luo Guanzhong. If this article is related to one, it must be related to the other. I can understand your confusion, but the sources I got the information from were directly from the book and from a site dedicated to the book.

All I ask for is verification of the truth. Yanksox 03:35, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

www.kongming.net/novel/sgyy/gaolan.php is a website dedicated to the three kingdoms period. This link directs you to the biography of the character in question. The game is based on history, not vice versa. Take a look around that website though, you'll find many sections only a few which are dedicated to the game and the rest to the novel itself. I hope this alleviates your suspicions.

Can you clarify this in the article and provide ciatitions where necessary. I'm going to further research the actual history of the game. Thanks, Yanksox 03:53, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

Sure thing, sorry about the citations, this is one of my first posts.

Hey, I just want to help this article out. It's a damn fine first article. :P Yanksox 03:57, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

I appreciate the advice, it can always use improvement, thanks again, if you need to talk to me again throw me a message :D

You might want to be careful about leaving your e-mail up here. People could spam you. :P Btw, I did some reason and from what I can tell, it's clear. Probably not exactly historical text, but it's historical. Yanksox 04:05, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your patience. Have a good day.

No big deal, you too. Be sure to come back. Yanksox 04:11, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
