450: 297: 440: 419: 713: 885:, I accidentally pressed the "Enter" key which prematurely submitted my edit before I finished my edit summary. I removed the adjective "Khampa" from "Tibetan and Khampa protestors and militants", because to my understanding, the distinction is between Lhasa and Khampa Tibetans (i.e. Tibetans from Lhasa and Tibetans from Kham), not that Tibetans and Khampas are two different peoples (or more specifically, that the latter is not a subgroup of the former). 779: 745: 351: 330: 598: 233: 203: 288: 670: 659: 648: 637: 729: 556: 524: 626: 958:
I did not mean to restore the change to Chushi Gangdruk, although I also find its placement in the infobox odd no matter how it is displayed. Having just "Protesters and militants in Lhasa" is kind of odd though in my opinion, as similar articles are not as vague. If the infobox says "Lhasa, Tibet",

Actually, as far as I understand it, Khampa and Tibetans are (or at least were) related but distinct groups, although Tibetans have historically claimed that Khampa are just eastern Tibetans. The Khampa, for their part, fought against the Tibetans a lot in the early 20th century, as Tibet tried to

IMO, the main issue is the lack of a proper "Chushi Gangdruk insurgency" article. The 1959 Tibetan uprising and Chushi Gangdruk's activities influenced each other, but were ultimately disctinct events with very different backgrounds. Perhaps the berst course of action would be to remove Chushi
845:
Despite the theme of the article being Tibetan, the article describe the entire event from Chinese perspective and fails to explain cause and effect of the event from the angle of Tibetan. Reader trying to understand the 5W1H of the event in term of Tibetan would left themselves confused after
736: 538: 720: 534: 153: 1007:
People from the eastern regions of Kham and Amdo have always identified themselves as Khampas and Amdowas rather than Tibetans, and have sometimes been more closely connected to their Chinese neighbours than to Central
922:. Basically, the Khampa only started to regard themselves as Tibetans in the 1950s, when the Chinese policies drove them into rebellion. As everything related to Tibet, this is a problematic topic to say the least. 1029:
IMO, if a group does not consider itself part of a people, it is not part of said people - regardless of language or descent. As long as the Khampa did not see themselves as Tibetans, they were not Tibetan.
959:
then I do not think "in Lhasa" is necessary either. After reading your comment, I will not insist on removing "Khampa" from "Tibetan and Khampa protestors and militants", so we can conclude that matter.

I don't think this means that the Khampas stopped speaking Tibetan, but rather that they started seeing "Tibetan" also as a local identity, which was separate from theirs. In contrast, the people of

Ok. I think that the best course of action will be that I create an article for the Chushi Gangdruk insurgency, so we can remove them from the infobox here.
