:({{Find sources|Lu Yan (Lu Xun's son)}})

He was the subject of half of one sentence in the Records of the Three Kingdoms, vol. 58. (長子延早夭，次子抗襲爵。 -- meaning, "The oldest son [of Lu Xun], Lu Yan, died early; his second son, Lu Kang, inherited his title.") I highly doubt that there are additional sources that would give more information than that. I would say delete, as all the information we have on him is already incorporated into Lu Xun's and Lu Kang's articles. Nlu (talk) 22:22, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

  • Comment: Though my view is different, there are many editors here who believe that any figure mentioned in any sense of significance, in ancient sources is assumed notable. (By the way, what's with the in-universe tag?) הסרפד (call me Hasirpad) (formerly R——bo) 23:33, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
  • :Presumably, whoever tagged it felt that it would not be understood easily by someone who didn't know much about the Three Kingdoms period. I should note, I think, the character yao (夭) suggests a childhood death, so I really think it is very unlikely that he did anything notable. --Nlu (talk) 23:55, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
  • Delete: According to the information given here, there is nothing to said be said about the subject other than what is covered in his father's article, so that the "summary" is equal to the content of the entire article. הסרפד (call me Hasirpad) (formerly R——bo) 01:04, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
  • A possible alternative is to redirect, but merging would be meaningless. הסרפד (call me Hasirpad) (formerly R——bo) 01:04, 14 January 2013 (UTC)

  • Weak Delete, per WP:SOLDIER it is mentioned in a reliable source he held a historical rank equivalent to a general officer; however, there does not appear to be significant coverage per WP:GNG. Therefore, the subject does not appear to pass notability.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 09:36, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
  • Actually, his father clearly did (and was one of the most prominent generals in the era), but not he (at least as far as we know). --Nlu (talk) 20:10, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
