Yunmen Wenyan

I did a lot of research for this article, and it hasn't really changed substantially in the past few weeks (aside from some pictures being added). In short, it has plateaued, and I'd like some suggestions and opinions. --maru (talk) contribs 20:47, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you can, fix the red links. Either rename or get rid of Trivia.--Osbus 01:28, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No, unfortunately I cannot. But what name would you suggest for the Trivia section? --maru (talk) contribs 02:37, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps "Media"? The article is in much need of references to back up the various assertions. The word "stele" is used but is not linked or explained. — RJH 14:34, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've given the rename a shot, and linked stele, since we have a good article on it. Incidentally, how is it not referenced? I thought I'd done a reasonable job with that. --maru (talk) contribs 21:56, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes you have general references. But the convention has been to include inline citations referring to specific pages on specific books. Otherwise everybody would need to look through all of your references to check every detail. The use of inline citations is described on Wikipedia:Citing sources. Thanks! :) — RJH 18:15, 16 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'd remove the large block from the lead and merge it appropriately in the body of the article; keep the lead for summary information and not detailed accounts. Also remove the section on Koans and put List of koans by Yunmen Wenyan into the See alsos. Try to merge the quote in Quotes with the Teachings section. --NormanEinstein 13:13, 13 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Done. --maru (talk) contribs 23:30, 30 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
