  1. Against - I'm a big fan of Dynasty Warriors, and I do see the absurdity and humor in the way Koei has feminized these warlords - but this article just reads like one long gay joke. Wu is gay, Wei is gay, Shu is gay, Zhang Fei is gay, Guan Yu is gay, Huang Gai is gay, Zhang He is... super-gay... come on. We can do better than that.

  2. Against. per Hyperbole. Overly Hyperbolic gay joke. The characters have other character flaws that should be mentioned. Mnb'z 17:49, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Also, if this article doesn't mention Diao Chan skipping across Hu Lao gate beating up hundreds of men with her fan, or the concept that the Nanman Campaign was fought largely by women in thongs, it's just not doing its job... Tinymasaru.gifpillow talk 18:28, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

This article once had a section on the flaws of the major characters. However, the line between satire and gamecruft is a thin one, and inscrutable to 11-year-olds with anonymous IPs. This section was the target of frequent unfunny edits and as a result the article was successfully VFD'd. See the talk page.YouFang 19:00, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
And a cleanup has now been finished.YouFang 06:01, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
Because gay jokes are always better than gamecruft. --Mnb'z 15:03, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
A gay joke is accessible to more people than funniest zinger about Dian Wei's Musou ability. If a joke is well-crafted and funny, why should it matter that it's a "gay joke"? See Horatio Hornblower. Regardless, I think you're doing this article a grave disservice by saying it's only about gay jokes. It's not. YouFang 16:18, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
Gay jokes are not a substitute for satire. --Mnb'z 16:36, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
They are satirical if the subject matter is fruity.YouFang 18:22, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
My personal opinion, here: to hell with making it "accessible" by making it mostly about men who want to have sex with other men. Let's make it hilarious to fans of the series. I want to read that zinger about Dian Wei's Musou ability. I don't particularly want to read "There are three kingdoms: Shu, which is gay, Wu, which is super-gay, and Wei, which is gay in a butch kind of way." Maybe that's more accessible to anonymous eleven-year-olds, but it's not the article I want on this subject - which, frankly, is one of the easiest targets for satire I've seen.

Okay, well as I've said to many others, you go write that Characters from Dynasty Warriors article. Include the zingers about Dian Wei's Musou ability, Huang Gai's voice talent, Cao Pi's name, and all the other fan insights you wish. In the meantime, Dynasty Warriors is here, and HOPEFULLY funny to people who aren't that familiar with the game. YouFang 22:48, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
Perhaps VFH isn't the best place for this conversation. Do you want to move this discussion over to the talk page?YouFang 22:50, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

Symbol neutral vote.svg Abstain. I can see it and it is written in English. Formatting looks ok. Besides that - I have no idea about this subject and nor am I arsed to check it out either. --Romartus 09:01, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

I've never even heard of this game. I thought this was a funny article. Simple as that. --noamshouseparty 19:08, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
  • Symbol neutral vote.svg Abstain. I could be persuaded to vote FOR, but it was slightly too in-jokey.   Le Cejak <10:41 May 15, 2009>
