Talk:Lists of people of the Three Kingdoms

message: Although the Sun family did not get involved
in the battles that went on between Liu Bei
and Cao Cao, they are still just as strong as
the other kingdoms.
With the death of Sun Jian, Sun Ce went on to
continue his father's work. After reuniting with
his childhood friend Zhou Yu, the territories of
Wu not only became a heated battled, but many
talented officers and people joined Sun Ce's army 
to help him during his conquest (Such as Taishi Ci,
Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong, Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai, etc).
The only sad thing was he later died after receiving 
wounds from hunting and killing Yi Ji. The most 
interesting insight about the Kingdom of Wu is how 
they came into power of their own. Most of the time 
they tried not to get into any battles. The other odd
fact is that Wu did not have any top five generals
in their army. More importantly, the best insight
out of Wu is how they maintain peaceful watch and
only went to war when they felt now was the time.
Even though the novel itself focuses on Liu Bei and
Cao Cao's rise to power, you still got to give Wu
and the generals credit for only wanting to see their
land flourish and be safe for future generations. More
or less, The kingdom of Wu from my point of view was
only trying to keep out of the wars. As for the top
five generals, I believe they would be Zhou Yu, Lu Xun,
Zhou Tai, Gan Ning, and Huang Gai.

thread_title:  The Wu Kingdom of the Han 

message: According to a Chinese-speaking colleague of mine, this list combines characters from Records of the Three Kingdoms (factual) and Romance of the Three Kingdoms (fiction).  In the Chinese Wikipedia, these lists are separate, being zh:三國志人物列表 and zh:三国演义人物列表, respectively. Uncle G 12:16, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  accurecy 

message: I have classified the characters under whom and which kindom they had previously and eventually served. For example, Zhang He served Yuan Shao before, but he later served Wei. Hence, I decided to classify him under both 'Yuan Shao and his subjects' and 'State of Wei'.
However, I am still unsure which of these characters are real or fictional and maybe need some help on this. Perhaps a section listing fictional characters of the Three Kingdoms can be created.
As for the brief descriptions of the characters beside their names, I have decided to remove them as they do not really serve any purpose. I hope that the former editor who added these descriptions can understand why I removed them. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Lonelydarksky (talk • contribs) 13:45, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Classification 

message: Shouldn't the characters listed by each name in the article be in Traditional Chinese rather than Simplified?  Traditional is used in the individual articles for each character and Simplified didn't come into existence until the People's Republic of China created it in the last century.

message: I've replaced the previous version with this new one that I've been working on in my sandbox page for the past few weeks. Any comments or suggestions for improvements? Lonelydarksky (暗無天日)  contact me (聯絡) 15:42, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: In the course of trying to find links that can be made to orphaned articles, I have come across one to Gao Xiang (Three Kingdoms). Would you be able to incorporate this on your page? And/or Would you be able to do anything with the stub itself :-) ???  TheAMmollusc (talk) 11:07, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Gao Xiang (Three Kingdoms) is already linked to both List of people of the Three Kingdoms and my sandbox page. I'll work on the stub some time later. Lonelydarksky (暗無天日)  contact me (聯絡) 13:16, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Revised version as of February 26, 2011 

message: Split  - I placed the split and toolong tags above Section A because the article kept crashing my browser.  I propose splitting the article by letter.  Thoughts? --Jax 0677 (talk) 20:07, 8 November 2013 (UTC)

replies: text:  Reply  - I doubt it would be, just a matter of doing it.  Now I am waiting for overwhelming consensus to split.  BTW, would you mind commenting on splitting Acid Mothers Temple? --Jax 0677 (talk) 08:38, 25 January 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  I think keep this article intact with the following modifications;
1. Remove all Chinese characters because; 
A. Some of these are not currently supported so are rendered incorrectly anyway.
B. They characters are not sortable, so add nothing to this listing.
C. This mod will also remove many "Span" commands.
2. Remove all "Unknown" date entries, this adds no vale and takes up space.
3. Combine "Previous Allegiances" and "Allegiance" neither column is used very much, amend column to "Allied to".  
4. Remove all "Present day" locations, seems somewhat irrelevant.
5. Place "Courtesy Name" in brackets behind "Name" removes one column.
6. Remove all dead links.
7. Remove "Notes" column entirely.
Overall this will save in excess of 16.5% of total bytes, increasing load time by ~ 22% without actually losing any usable information.
Lastly, I can copy this table and auto adjust as above or as agreed, if one or more of my adjustments are rejected. Any thought team? Kind regards The Original Filfi (talk) 02:28, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  Where is the list? 

message: I've added the entire list as I saw that the list has been deleted. I've no idea if it's complete, as I am not too familiar to the Three Kingdoms, so if you feel like something is missing, feel free to add. ^^

thread_title:  Where is the list? 

message: This article seems to have seen a rough history. For some unfathomable reason, the lists (used to be *a* list) just get deleted and no one fixes them. Repeatedly.
In the case this happens again (which is probable), please see the category page or simply check the revision history for the missing content. Kyliotic (talk) 20:55, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
