Ösel Tendzin
Thank you for your edits to the Ösel Tendzin article. The article had a negative slant perhaps that still needs to be balanced with details of his work and contributions. Your edits however removed much of the cited negative material instead of attempting to make it more encyclopedic. I made an attempt to incorporate your additional facts and return the citations but make them less central. Once concern I have though is that to be encyclopedic, we cannot include any unattributed opinions. Before the article had a few, so in returning content I took some care to make sure more were attributed &mdash; to Diana Mukpo for example. I suspect you'll want to discuss the changes, perhaps we could start a thread on the specifics on that articles talk page. - Owlmonkey (talk) 17:04, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
