Also, no need to add DT category to a master if you already added him in DT master or DT teacher categories, because he will automatically be placed in there. With the exception of Dudjom Lingpa and Dudjom Rinpoche who are at the origin of the DT.

When you edit or create an article, make sure:

  • the Tibetan terms are spelt the same way as in other articles
  • the other articles you are creating links for, do not already exists, with a different spelling maybe
  • each external article is only linked once, on its first occurrence

For Dudjom Rinpoche's previous incarnations and following incarnations, it would be better to create a separate article, in the category of incarnations lines. See this one for example: http://www.rigpawiki.org/index.php?title=Dzogchen_Rinpoche_Incarnation_Line Otherwise, it makes the article really long, plus lists break the flow of the article. Also, for every master/teacher you mention in the list, there should be no description, or very, very short, because readers can find more details in the main articles for those masters/teachers. --Sébastien 19:18, 20 April 2014 (UTC)

OK, thanks for the advice. I need your feedback to improve! --Yeshedorje 19:23, 20 April 2014 (UTC)

Created DT, DT masters and DT teachers categories, so you can start adding them to the bottom of your pages. --Sébastien 19:20, 20 April 2014 (UTC) I tried my best to put categories. Hope it is rightly done. http://www.rigpawiki.org/index.php?title=Category:Dudjom_Tersar --Yeshedorje 21:04, 20 April 2014 (UTC) The distinction for 'master' and 'teacher' categories has been defined in the following way:

  • Masters: who lived and taught mainly before 1959.
  • Teachers: teachers of recent times, who lived and taught after 1959.

It's a bit tricky for some masters who went into exile, but by looking at different masters, you can get a feel of how these 2 categories work. Whenever a teacher, even who was born and taught in Tibet, went into exile, and taught in the West would fall in the contemporary teachers categories. For ex. JKCL is categorized as master, but Dudjom R is categorized as teacher... Also, no need to add DT category to a master if you already added him in DT master or DT teacher categories, because he will automatically be placed in there. With the exception of Dudjom Lingpa and Dudjom Rinpoche who are at the origin of the DT. --Sébastien 07:45, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
