Talk:Family tree of Chinese monarchs (before 256 BCE)

disambaugation

Many of the internal links to the Xia dynasty kings link to modern figures, apparently who have ths same name in pinyin. We need to create new articles for these kings and correct all the links, or make the links red so they don't misdirect.Shendang (talk) 02:06, 22 March 2012 (UTC)

Wu, Yue, Jin

How come only Wu, Yue, and Jin family trees are included? Hanfresco (talk) 07:01, 20 April 2012 (UTC)

Because user:Sonny Fin don't know lineage of other state and he asked sources from me ,I had edited most of tree in Chinese wiki zh:中国君主世系图 but I don't not have enough time to translate into English.——星光下的人 (talk) 04:10, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

Complete list every time?

Is it really necessary to re-list from Ku to King Tai of Zhou for Wu and Jin family trees? Why not start from the branch point and tell the user where to refer to for the early part of the tree? Hanfresco (talk) 07:10, 20 April 2012 (UTC)

Well, that's annoying

Rebuilt the Zhou section for formatting, better links, capitalization, etc. and now I keep getting server errors every time try to load it on. Is it some server or format problem? or just the fact I'm in the PRC now? — LlywelynII 19:32, 27 October 2012 (UTC)

Yup, works here. Could someone add it in for me? — LlywelynII 19:35, 27 October 2012 (UTC)

Zhou Dynasty

This is a family tree for the Zhou Dynasty, descendants of Duke Wu of Zhou who overthrew the last Shang ruler Di Xin, thereby establishing the dynasty. Ruling from 1046 BC to 256 BC, it is notable as the longest dynasty in Chinese history, although the actual political and military control of China by the dynasty only lasted during the Western Zhou, and the first historically attested date is the start of the Gonghe Regency in 841 BC: dates prior to this are speculative.

Typo(s? is there a plural form of the word typo?lol)

Anyways, there are numerous typo here. I alone can't fix them but when I create pages for these guys, I will check. ----損齋 (talk) 20:46, 16 September 2017 (UTC)

Thank you. If it will be easier for you to make only a list and send it to me, you could do it. I will correct the mistakes.--Daduxing (talk) 05:49, 17 September 2017 (UTC)

Family tree of Chinese monarchs (ancient) → Family tree of Chinese monarchs (before 256 BCE) – Likewise:

• (early) → (221 BCE – 453 CE)
• (middle) → (453–1279)
• (late) → (1279–1912)

I know each of these boundaries are problematic (Genghis Khan is included in "late" for example, but frankly the core of it is correct and it would help guide readers much better than "early", "middle", and "late".

Well since this has been relisted I guess I'll participate. I suppose I don't have any particular opposition to altering the disambiguation terms from an arbitrary relative periodisation word to an arbitrary pair of dates, provided the current titles are retained as redirects like usual. I'm not sure how many articles link to these family tree lists outside ==See also==s (i.e. in prose), but I remember struggling mightily to remember just the single pair of dates we ended up with for Jin dynasty (266–420). I think hyperspecific disambiguation in article titles is fine for pages like the current one, where it's pretty unlikely we'll need to type it into a wikilink, but if these were articles that were frequently linked from prose sentences I'd strongly prefer keeping the adjectives so I wouldn't have to tab away to figure out which precise date span to place within the disambiguator. Anyway sure why not to prevent further relist and note to the closer please pretend I said this in all four related RMs. Folly Mox (talk) 17:23, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

Support – I agree that the terms are rather useless and too vague without context, so years seem better. Particularly true when c. 220–581 could been seen as its own period, or perhaps in either the early/middle ones. Aza24 (talk) 06:18, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

As an aside: it's a bit bizarre that the Five Emperors are even included here... given that the exact groupings vary so much between sources, I can't imagine that the Shiji, Hanshu, I Ching, Bamboo Annals and Liji suddenly agree on a family tree. Then of course, there's their wholly mythical nature! – Aza24 (talk) 06:21, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

I'm of two minds on your last point: it's a bit of a fantasy to put Pan Geng and the Yongle Emperor on the same list of anything too, but maybe we should be more circumspect/brief in their mention, maybe a bulleted list instead of a table. Remsense ‥ 诉 06:27, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
