Battle of Xiaopo

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

The battle is not notable enough to have a full Wikipedia article. Of the 10 references provided, only 1, 2, 4 and 5 deal primarily with the topic, and each mentions no longer than one line about the battle. The 6 other references are about the aftermath (how Gu Tan and Zhang Xiu got into trouble after the battle). This can be covered in the respective articles of the two people and Quan Cong. The background section comprises irrelevant information on events such as Zhuge Liang's Northern Expeditions, Cao Pi's invasions of Eastern Wu and Sima Yi's Liaodong Campaign, all of which are largely unrelated to this battle. On a side note, the name of the location of the battle is wrongly translated. 芍坡 is read as quebei. A search on Google for "芍坡 quebei" helps to clear doubts.
