There is an ongoing drive to improve all of the articles in List of towns and villages in Tibet. One of our goals is to add and infobox and locator map for all 800 odd places and begin adding basic encyclopedic data and transliterations. This is the infobox for settlements in Tibet. Please add this and fill in the relevant data if you see an article on a town or village missing it.

To tag Tibet-related articles, simply add Tibet=yes in the {{tl|WPCHINA}} parameters, and it will display the following:

{{WikiProject China|tibet=yes|category=no}}

(Note that in this example the notice has been classified as "NA", so that it will not appear on the list of unassessed articles. This will not happen normally if the above code is used.)

To tag articles focused on the religion of Tibetan Buddhism, use the template:

{{WikiProject Tibetan Buddhism | class= | importance= }}

{{WikiProject Tibetan Buddhism | class= | importance= |category=no}}

Add {{tl|User WP Tibet}} to your userpage if you want, to show that you are a participant of this project:

Open task: a special WikiProject Tibet Barnstar. Until then, here are a few options:

• The current WPCHINA Barnstar

:{{tl|The Zhonghua Barnstar of Merit}}

• For work related to Buddhism

:{{tl|The Buddha Barnstar}}

{{The Buddha Barnstar}}

Tibet

Articles which are not really related to WikiProject China and are related to Buddhism in Tibet whether, biographies, monasteries, cultural traditions etc., should be tagged with the Tibetan Buddhism template {{tl|WikiProject Tibetan Buddhism}} on the talk pages.

{{WikiProject Tibetan Buddhism|class=NA|category=no}}

The banner above produces the following statistics.

{{Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Tibetan Buddhism articles by quality statistics}}

Current:

• Tibetan Buddhism provides an overview of the topic, with short descriptions of all the major subtopics.
• Tibetan Buddhist canon

{{Tibetan Buddhism}}

The compact (but expandable) "Tibetan Buddhism series" box {{tl|Tibetan Buddhism}} can be placed on the main page of appropriate articles.

We have the following categories currently:

• :Category:Tibetan Buddhism

Discuss the format for each article based on the WikiProject. Include various categories applicable to the topic.

We should probably discuss article types, which may have different parameters. Example types might be:

Articles on texts should include:

• Text's title. Should be also given in Wylie transliteration.
• Authorship, if known. If the supposed authorship of a text is not established by scholarship, list it as an attribution: "The text is attributed to such-and-such." Name or names of the author should be also given in Wylie transliteration.
• Date
• Place of origin (if known); should be also given in Wylie transliteration.
• A rough overview of the contents of the text
• Separate sections for particularly important ideas in the text. Alternatively, short descriptions and links to articles on said ideas.
• Whatever caveats regarding disputes over readings of the text, etc.
• Associated sect(s) (Indicate, where appropriate, whether the text originated within the sect or was adopted by it after the fact.)
• A table of translations, like this one:

• A "See also" section for internal links.
• An "External links" section for articles about the text, electronic versions of the text. (Separate sections for this?)
