message: Can somebody clarify this? The Mountain's summit is actually in Tibet, isn't it? As such it doesn't really make sense for the map to show its location "within Bhutan" when it isn't in Bhutan, at least the red tiangle representing the summit isn't. It doesn't make sense either that there's no mention of Tibet in the intro. --Lo2u (T • C) 23:45, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, looking at those coordinates on Google Earth, the summit does seem to be within Bhutan. The reasons I thought it was in Tibet were firstly that the red triangle on the map was entirely outside Bhutan (I think the location map possibly needs to be recallibrated)) and secondly that the GeoHack coordinates gave China for this location, though they don't seem to any more.  --Lo2u (T • C) 01:37, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

text: I agree with your remarks and a better map would be most helpful. Since the present map seems to show a northern border for Bhutan which bears little relationship to what is shown on several mapping sites, I am deleting it as being worse than no map at all.

thread_title:  Bhutan or China? 

message: I shall revert the last edit to the article which put a different map in the infobox which then shows GP entirely within China (see last section of this discussion above). Interestingly, Bing shows the GP coordinate given in the article as being within Bhutan . I think the underlying issue is that the border between the countries is not defined clearly (but maybe it is convenient to say GP is on or near the border).Thincat (talk) 09:12, 13 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: The coordinates in the infobox give 0 seconds for both the latitude in longitude which usually means that the source (which is no documented) did not specify the location with much accuracy. This makes it impossible, using this data, to determine were the summit is with respect to a border. If the border is in dispute, the article should make no claim about which country the summit is in. The body of the article makes the situation clear but the claim in the first sentence that the mountain is "in" Bhutan is probably inappropriate (IMHO). –droll [chat] 05:08, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
