Suppress redirection
Japhug language, Tshobdun language redirect to this page, but we would like to have a page for each of these languages. I don't know how to suppress the redirection and I don't want to mess things up trying. Can someone help with this? Rgyalrongskad (talk) 18:53, 17 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Click on Japhug language, and when redirected to Rgyalrong languages click on "(Redirected from Japhug language)" at the top, then edit the page and replace "#REDIRECT Rgyalrong languages" with the desired content. Same for Tshobdun language. BabelStone (talk) 19:00, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

RGyalrong languages → Gyalrong languages – Change "RGyalrong" to "Gyalrong" in accordance with Glottolog 4.1 and Guillaume Jacques' usage (Jacques is the main authority on these languages who writes in English). Rgyalrongic languages had already been moved to Gyalrongic languages by User:Haspelmt. — Sago tree spirit  (talk) 00:03, 16 March 2020 (UTC) —Relisting. Jerm (talk) 14:56, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

Descendants of Tibetan warriors?
I don't have access to the reference cited, but I wonder about this statement. Following the Jinchuan wars of the 1770s, the Qing emperor sent large numbers of Han Chinese settlers into Gyalrong to dilute the indigenous population and mitigate the possibility of future rebellions. Also, in ancient times, the people of this region were Qiang. The political influence of the Tibetan government in Gyalrong has been historically weak at best. To say that Gyalrong people are descendants of Tibetans is, at least, an oversimplification, even though they are officially classed as such today. 2601:602:8C80:F010:2463:D281:83:B78B (talk) 00:16, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
