Is there a wikipedia page about this person (under the domain https://www.wikipedia.org/, in English)?
Yes. If there wasn't, I'd be breaking rule 7 (The question master may choose entities real or fictional that are not horribly obscure...").

Can I get a clarification on this? By Qin Dynasty I meant 221 BC to 206 BC, and not the state of Qin (860 BC - 207 BC). Is the answer of Yes still the same?

Unrelatedly - was this person involved in a rebellion against someone who was or would become a Chinese emperor?

If yes - Xiang Yu?

Strangely though, my answer of "I will say yes" instead stemmed from Cao Cao's 216 declaration of being the King of Wei.

I asked the monarch question with him in mind, and then scratched when I realized he has "King of Wei" as a title.

Next thread will be up in a few hours.
