More like Gay Yan, amirite? -- Friedchikinz ( talk) 02:38, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
Through the games series of dynasty warriors, Wei Yan seems to always be seen as a bloodlusting animals who lives only for battle. I, myself, do not consider Wei Yan to be rebellious yet more of a person for battle and long for peace. Just before the Wu Zhang Plains took place, Zhuge Liang rejected the plans Wei Yan had ready against the Wei Army.
At the battle between Sima Yi of Wei and Zhuge Liang of Shu, Wei soldiers began fleeing from the ploy that Zhuge Liang (Who is dead at the time) had surprised them with. In the fast retreat of Wei, the Shu general Wei Yan advances after them thus turning his advance into ignore. Due to the respect that the soldiers have for the Shu Strategist, the soldiers kill Wei Yan for his disregard to the plot. The point that I can tell of Wei Yan is that even if his actions may have made him seem like the rebellious general, he only wanted a few things out of battle.

Why did they make wei yan so so... lacking verbal capability in the game, I heard he was a pretty smart guy. Whopper 12:44, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
Wei Yan may have been a funny guy from DW 4, but he was overall a capable general that even Liu Bei could trust. Though Zhuge Liang said he could not trust him, you still have to give this guy a massive amount of credict due to his skills on the battle field. The only thing I wish for is that he lived a bit longer even after the death of Zhuge Liang. For Wei Yan, he was a man who, I believed at many times, wanted to die in battle against his enemies.
In the end, Wei Yan not only performed well on the field, but he was the sixth most top ranking general whose skill coul've rivaled Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yu, Ma Chao, or Huang Zhong.-- Zhang Liao 23:29, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
I'm hoping to get a standardized format for Three Kingdoms articles... reality/history only in the WP:LEDE with a one-sentence mention of the existence of fiction... early sections are historical.. later sections (clearly marked as "Fictionalized account" for ROTK and something else for games) for fiction.
-- Ling.Nut 22:17, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
(undent) So the question is, which do we need:
I took some fiction out of the lede; it can be reinserted elsewhere. Here it is, so I won't lose it:
Who are the "others"? ROTK? Video game magazines? Sounds like a weasel word.. All assertions should be given a source. I mean, perhaps not every statement is given a formal citation, but the reader should at least know whether the info is from Sanguo zhi or ROTK or... whatever... Ling.Nut 11:34, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
I have a lengthy bio on Wei Yan up elsewhere. If I can fix it up, add inline citations, etc. then I can probably get it to GA or FA quality almost instantly. I have to fix it majorly first though.-- Wizardman 01:13, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
If anyone anywhere has the guts to fix this thing, please do so ASAP... just by looking at it, it is all simply copy/pasted & therefore is WP:CV. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ling.Nut ( talk • contribs).
(undent) Oh, dk, subtract two points from your game score! Wrong answer. A translation can certainly be copyrighted, and certainly is copyrighted... unless that translation is public domain.. possible I guess but very unlikely... So it's out-of-bounds if it's a translation. But wait, what if the contributor translated all that text him/herself? Home free, right? Wrong! That would be WP:OR. :-) Ah, the perils of being a scholar! Ling.Nut 12:25, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
(undent) We can rebuild it. But this isn't anywhere near the top of my priority list.. but it does need help... Ling.Nut 00:55, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
I fail to find relevant citations in neither Records of Three Kingdoms nor Zizhi Tongjian. Help.- Heinrich ⅩⅦ von Bayern ( talk) 00:34, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
