Talk:Jebe

Untitled
Moved from article page: [Has any of the above been verified by historical sources? That Jebe was a Korean monk is truly surprising.]

eh, it doesn't strike me as terribly surprising, but given the propensity of many Koreans to try and exaggerate Korea's historical importance, it is dubious. I'll make an attempt at finding internet sources, but other than that my resources are limited nowadays.

from http://www.houseofice.com/history/khan_longVersion.shtml "During this campaign, a young Tayichi'ut brought down Jenghiz Khan's horse with an arrow. Instead of executing him, Jenghiz Khan pardoned him and renamed him Jebe ("Arrow"). Jebe would come to be one of Jenghiz Khan's most trusted and able captains, and together with Subotai, he was to be the most illustrious general in the Mongol epic."

The Tayichi'ut were apparantly another Mongol clan. The story that injects a Korean monk into it seems...unlikely. This whole article reminds me of this Japanese manga, Ou Rou Den, by Kentaro Miura of Berserk fame. A Japanese Kendo master and his girlfriend travel back in time, and through a ridiculous series of events, he replaces Genghis Khan. Oh yeah, and Benkei is Genghis Khan's most trusted adviser. And both GK and Benkei are about 12 feet tall.

This article either needs some serious supporting sources, or it needs to go. There isn't any fixing it, it would need replacing. User:Andy_Christ

[Has any of the above been verified by historical sources? That Jebe was a Korean monk is truly surprising.] [Re: Yes, what was previously written here about Jebe is a complete fiction. He was not a Korean, but a Mongolian and that love story is a fiction too.

This Wikipedia is a great encyclopedia, but because of the fact that anyone can put anything he wants to in here makes it very VULNERABLE and even UNRELIABLE as a source. I believe that Wikipedia staff should take some steps in enabling some security from people messing freely with the all material presented here in. Especially, in the material that has already been well-documented, I think, there should be some kind of protection offered to it. Let people write about what is not on yet, but limit their access to already presented material. Could someone please deliver this message to Wikipedia stuff? I don't know how to contact them, so it'd be great if anyone could do that. Thanks!]

The reason Wikipedia is as large and as comprehensive as it is is that anyone can edit it. Eliminating that, apart from perhaps attempting to make blacklists for known abusers, would kill Wikipedia. The price of Wikipedia's success is that vulnerability, and it pretty much cannot be eliminated. User:Andy_Christ

It needs editing again, its written from a personal perspective citing that Genghis being loyal and honest himself, found it noteworthy of respect in others, its not historic its written in a fictitious manner, this is Wikipedia not a comic bookUr-loki (talk) 20:35, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
