New content reverted edit

58.182.176.169, I have reverted your new additions here, partly because it had technical problems, but more because I don't think it belongs here. We can't have every lake, every river, every village becoming a scene of Sino-Indian confrontation. In trying to decide this, we need to let ourselves be guided by what the reliable sources do.

There isn't any sources that talks about a "Spanggur dispute" or "Spanggur sector" or "Spanggur conflict" or anything of that sort. So I believe practically none of the Sino-Indian conflict should go here. The border determination efforts are fine, because they are centred on the Spanggur Lake.

I suggest you create a separate article called Chushul sector (like we did for Demchok sector), where you can write about all the conflicts and jockeying. Note that a lot of the Chushul sector also deals with the Pangong Lake. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 18:38, 6 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Moldo edit

 
Henry Strachey's map of Pangong and Spanggur

"Moldo" is not on the Spanggur Lake. It used to be a grazing ground/campsite in the Spanggur Gap, very near the present day BPM building. See Strachey's map (where it is called "Mordo").

For some odd reason, Indian media started calling the Chinese garrison at Spanggur (a former campsite), as "Moldo garrison". -- Kautilya3 (talk) 19:21, 6 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
