he could have managed pulling the ice cone out on his own (and was maybe only thinking he needed to do that?). But then he got there and saw that Lin Jing was still alive in there, so he came up with the plan for Lin Jing to give that last push to trigger his powers
Yes! That makes perfect sense to me. Indeed, he couldn't have known how slowly Ye Zun digested his victims, and that there would still be someone in there to help him.
When ZYL sticks the Mount-River Awl into Ye Zun, some of his dark energy escapes, and the undigested people inside him get thrown about a bit. So Shen Wei knows something is weakening and/or distracting Ye Zun, and it's a good moment.
I did take notes on almost all of the eps - I only need to go back to eps 5-11 and take notes on those, too. I got carried away on my note-taking rewatch and ended up just watching them and not taking notes. ;-) In my defence, they are among my favorite eps!
I'd be interested in contributing to a Guardian wiki in theory, but the problem is that I don't know where I'd find the time! I think it's great that you're making one, though - fandom will definitely benefit from a wiki. There are so many things to keep track of in this series...
