Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier3
Reliability tier 3: a continuously community-edited tertiary reference with no formal peer review process, suitable for citable, checkable factual claims but not treated as authoritative on genuinely contested points. NotesWikipedia's article on Duanmu Ci, the disciple known as Zigong, consulted 2026-08-12 (a first attempt at the plain name Zigong resolved to an unrelated Sichuan city and was redirected here). A perpetually community-edited reference page rather than a peer-reviewed publication, useful here for named biographical detail about the disciple who asked Confucius the question at Analects 15:24, absent from Shu's own existing facts.
