Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hu Lao gate

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Only one article links here, and that article is non-fiction. However, the only hits I see relate to the Dynasty Warriors video game. Nominating for unverifiability. Name capitalization may be incorrect as well. If this is deleted, it should probably be de-linked from Dong Zhuo. Niteowlneils 14:47, 14 Aug 2004 (UTC)

PS This was tagged for speedy, but I felt I couldn't make a strong enuf case to actually delete it. If someone thinks that route is better, no complaints from me. Niteowlneils 14:49, 14 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: A number of these articles have been on Clean Up. I've worked on one or two successfully, but it requires a lot of effort, and often to no avail (for me). There are numerous small articles about battles in Chinese history. They are often c&p from another source, too. If you can find the material in an intelligible form, they tend to be accounts from the 17th century. It would be nice to have the information on Wikipedia, but it can be very difficult for non-Chinese history experts to do anything. It can go on Clean Up, but with prejudice toward deletion if unimproved in a month. Geogre 18:02, 14 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Probably a battle from the China's Warring States period (the Dynasty Warriors game is based on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Weak keep, strong if it can be verified to not be just from the game. Definitely needs cleanup and expansion. Gwalla | Talk 02:35, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete as incomprehensible. -- Cyrius| 06:45, 16 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete unless confirmed as factual (which won't happen, I'm sure). -Sean Curtin 09:20, 16 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • If it's a real event, and a real structure, send to cleanup or Attention; otherwise delete. If it's a real gate but anot a real battle, there could probably stand to be an architectural article on the gate, but this isn't it.-FZ 15:47, 16 Aug 2004 (UTC)
