Talk:Wang Yuyan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
What is this third edition of the novel that is being refered to? Is there a reference to this? If not, I suggest that we remove the discussion of the third edition --theorb 13:49, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
- I guess it refers to the second revision, see the Jinyong article. Anyone who have a revised book can verify it, so I think it is OK to stay.--Skyfiler 22:33, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
- "In the third edition of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, Wang Yu Yan is obssessed with trying to obtain a martial arts that will allow its user to remain youthful. In this edition, she does not like Duan Yu and ignores him throughout. Although Duan Yu is mesmerised by her in the beginning, he reallises that his true affections are for a statue he saw and not of Wang Yu Yan so he does not continue wooing her. In the end, Wang Yu Yan ends up taking care of her mad cousin with one of her maids, Ah Bi."- I have not read the third edition, but I doubt that Jinyong would make such a drastic change to his novel. Is there any reference to this change? Sounds very unreasonable. --theorb 15:28, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
- Sounds really a big dramatic change which will totally change the novel. Anyone got any references? Xaiver0510 05:36, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
