Talk:Zhao Yun

message: Can we perhaps get a better main picture for Zhao Yun? He's a historical figure, not an aggregation of polygons from a video game. Such a ridiculously romanticised picture is suitable for the article on Lara Croft - not for Zhao Zilong.
SuperXW: He's a historical figure without any realistic pictures. Even the Qing dynasty's dispiction is just an imagination of that time. However, I do agree with you that not using a japanese's romanticised video game's picture as the main one. A screenshot from the CCTV drama should be ok. That one was based on most Chinese' traditional impressions of the figures. 203.198.224.143 (talk) 05:12, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Main picture

message: Why is there an individual page called "Biography of Zhao Yun"? Part of the introduction text could also be moved down to the biography section. Please clean up. --Plastictv 22:45, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: Even now when Honor and devotion is more of a hard practice, Zhao Yun of
the Three Knigdoms shows many people that bravery, respect to his or her
lord, and willing to give his or her life means having the most honor on
or off the battle field. There are also others who carried the same honor
just as he did for his own kingdom.

thread_title:  Those who have Honor 

message: "He charged into 1,000,000 of Cao Cao troops by himself"
Give me a break...Cao Cao didn't even have that many men. Not to mention that Zhao Yun would have been slaughtered.
There's just too much information taken from the novel (Not historical)
*Perhaps you should try and correct it? --Nsevs 17:21, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: the article should be following history, but in history some generals did charge into a lot of men themselves in ancient china. But how it is written might be a bit biased Thehistorianisaac (talk) 10:37, 30 November 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  This article is rubbish. 

message: "Say," said Zhao Zilong, "that I will seek the lost
ones in Heaven or Hell, through good or evil. And if
I find them not, I will die in the battlefield."
"I am Zhao Zilong of Changshan!"
Quotes of Zhao Yun aka Zhao Zilong
:What's up with these seemingly random thoughts about the Romance of Three Kingdom people? There's always one of those in every RTK article on wikipedia. The talk page isn't made for discussing the novel. And this could be just me, but I believe people would prefer the old ancient drawing of Zhao Yun that was removed to this ridiculous Dynasty Warriors picture. 80.227.100.62 07:58, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Zhao Yun's Bravery and Honor 

message: It has been proposed on the Talk:Qin Gong page that the information there be merged into a section on this page. I think that a section of information about his exploits in the novel should be added. The information on the Qin Gong page falls under this. As long as the information is labeled as fictional tales there shouldn't be any confusion with the historical information under the "Life" section. Any thoughts?

thread_title: Merging [[Qin Gong]] article into Zhao Yun article

message: I'm no expert on the subject, but it seams to me that this article was written by some video game fan boys with little historic accuracy. It has a wealth of un-sourced material, and I think should be tagged as 'not verified' until they can be sighted. If they remain unsighted, they should probably be removed. --Chopin-Ate-Liszt! 01:44, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That was quite demeaning. Besides the statement you added a citeneeded tag to, what else needs to be addressed? _dk 03:55, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

text: All of the "Life" section is based on the first source, because that is the only authoritative primary source there is on him. I'll add a source on the RoTK stuff. _dk 14:34, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

text: That's good, but the first two sources are in Chinese. Seeing as this is English Wiki, I'm not sure that cuts it. I'll go ahead and remove the banner, but we really should be shooting for at least 5 legit sources. --Chopin-Ate-Liszt! 20:08, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

text: Inline citations were given. And we have "biography" section instead of "life" section now, still we'll keep on to follow SGZ to enhance related articles from time to time.----EkmanLi (talk) 10:14, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Source Citations

message: Why did someone insist that some stories in ROTK about Zhao Yun were based on Chen Dao? This is pure speculation and not acceptable. This kind of speculation first arose in some internet chat rooms, it should not belong here. 
In Chen Shou's San Guo Zhi as well as some other historical records, Chen Dao was mentioned only briefly and his life achievements remain unclear. To say that Luo Guan Zhong combined Chen and Zhao Yun into one character is not reasonable. Luo created many fictional characters and fictional deeds, but there is no reason to believe he decided to omit Chen Dao for the sake of enhancing Zhao Yun as a character.
:Well, 2 speculations were discussed above. I don't think the first speculation is correct, but the second "speculation" is quite reasonable and acceptable to me. A few deeds, like assisting Liu Bei's retreat after the latter lost to Lu Yi, and protecting Liu in An'an palace, were achieved by Chen but given to Zhao in the novel. I also completed a major expansion and rewrite on Chen Dao's article in Wiki several months ago.----EkmanLi (talk) 09:46, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

message: In games and pictures, Zhao Yun rides a white horse.This horse is suposed to be a fast and fearless horse. Zhao Yun also has great horsemanship. Ma Chao also has great horsemanship. The horses saddle is red and gold.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.137.157.234 (talk) 00:01, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Zhao Yun's Horse 

message: I came here looking for Zhao Zilong but found Zhao Yun.   I searched the article and he is referred to in a couple of quotes as Zilong "Zilong would never desert me!" but no where is it explained where Zilong comes from.  Someone with ready sources want to add this secondary name in the leadin and where it came from?  Please?  97.85.185.160 (talk) 05:44, 15 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: "Zilong" (子龍) is Zhao Yun's Chinese style name. It's not much different from a name given to any child by his parents. 暗無天日  contact me (聯絡) 06:12, 15 August 2010 (UTC)
