[edit] Three Kingdoms articles

Hello, I see you've been creating articles for the Three Kingdoms article and I have to thank you for your enthusiasm and effort toward this historical period. However, I'd like to remind you that the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, although very fascinating, is still a work of fiction and cannot be used to write articles for history. Other Wikipedia articles also can't be used as sources, so it is not a good idea to list them as references. If you're interested in how actual history goes, you might want to start by reading Rafe de Crespigny's works here [1]. If you have any concerns, please feel free to ask. Also, if you're up for it, you might want to join our WikiProject Three Kingdoms. _dk 10:41, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

"Sanguo Yanyi" means "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", if you hadn't realized. _dk 06:21, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Hello again, and thank you for all your additions to the battle articles. Watch out though, try not to copy Generals of the South word for word as it is considered a copyright violation. Thanks. _dk (talk) 04:57, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
