Nothing to do with China
I do not see any connection between this BLP and China and am therefore deleting the WikiProject China template. It is also no longer a stub so that can go, too. MacPraughan (talk) 16:45, 4 January 2017 (UTC)

Late Elliot Sperling - dedication
I have developed this article from a stub over the last few months thanks to encouragement to study this period from Elliot Sperling the renowned Tibetologist who died a few days ago. Having completed the last para a few days ago I almost immediately got the news of his unexpected death - just a year after he retired. I would therefore like to dedicate my work on this article to Elliot's memory. I look forward to any other improvement made by others. MacPraughan (talk) 18:00, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

Primary sources and conflict of interest
I've noticed that large portions of this article, as much as up to 50-60%, reference Karmay 2014 and Shakabpa. Karmay 2014 is an autobiography of a primary source by the 5th Dalai Lama himself living at the time and involved with the subject. Shakabpa was a Tibetan nobleman and worked within the government of independent Tibet during the 20th century. These two sources make up half the inline citations in the article. While they are useful for a Tibetan perspective and primary source perspective, this article could use a bit more balance from secondary sources not directly involved as an actor within governance of Tibet.
