      <body>Tong Guan is a figure in the novel Water Margin. Wikidata gives his Chinese label in traditional characters, gives the English name Tong Guan and describes him as a Water Margin character, so the title stays this name.[^wikidata]&#xA;&#xA;## Identity and forms of address&#xA;&#xA;Wikidata records him as a character of Water Margin, with the occupation of political figure, and lists the simplified spelling of the name and the form Privy Councillor Tong. Privy councillor is an office, and Privy Councillor Tong addresses him by that office, so it is not another name.[^wikidata]&#xA;&#xA;## Relation to the historical man&#xA;&#xA;The novel&#39;s figure is based on the historical person [[person_cn_q707756|Tong Guan]]. This entry covers the figure in the book, and the historical Tong Guan has an entry of his own.[^wikidata]&#xA;&#xA;## Basic facts&#xA;&#xA;- Identity: character of Water Margin[^wikidata]&#xA;- Other form: Privy Councillor Tong[^wikidata]&#xA;- Appears in: [[work_cn_q70827|Water Margin]][^wikidata]</body>
