Guanqiu Xun

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Guanqiu Xun and Guanqiu Dian were probably the same person. The biography of Guanqiu Jian in volume 28 of Records of the Three Kingdoms mentioned that he had a son called "Guanqiu Dian", but nothing was mentioned about "Guanqiu Xun". I did an online search for "Guanqiu Xun" but there are no credible sources about the existence of this "Guanqiu Xun", even in Chinese-language sources, and most of the online results are linked to this Wikipedia page in one way or another. The Chinese characters for "Dian" (甸) and "Xun" (旬) are similar, so this could have resulted in the confusion. I created this article by mistake in 2007 so now I'm nominating it for deletion. It will be great if WP:CSD can be applied here. LDS contact me 06:09, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Redirect If this page was born out of a confusion over similar Chinese characters, then it makes sense for this page to exist as a redirect. _dk (talk) 08:52, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
 * I can't remember the exact circumstances under which I created this article some years ago. However, I'm very sure it wasn't due to the confusion over the Chinese characters. It was probably due to my obsession with the Koei RTK games at that time because Guanqiu Xun does exist as a character in a few instalments.   LDS  contact me 10:11, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
