Talk:Dunhuang manuscripts

Mistake edit

This statement is false:

The Samten Migdron was recovered amongst the Dunhuang texts.

This is nowhere stated in the book cited as an authority.

In fact, this text was preserved in manuscript transmissions over a period of over a thousand years. This error really must be rectified, since I see it being repeated all over the web. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.64.40.243 (talk) 17:24, 16 May 2012 (UTC)Reply


I agree with the above - there are some Dzogchen texts among the Dunhuang manuscripts, but the text mentioned is not one of them. I also suggest that sections 1.3 and 1.4 should not be placed under 'Classification' at all. 1.4 should be merged with 1.3, and this discussion should be in a separate section which also discusses the manuscripts in other languages, not only Tibetan.

Hebrew edit

There is a list of languages cited in the lead that is uncited in the body, while Hebrew is cited in the body but was recently removed from the lead. This should be rectified. 216.208.65.229 (talk) 22:03, 14 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Let's have some references for Hebrew. It was just added with no new refs. Johnbod (talk) 22:12, 14 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
