Nevertheless, his rival candidate, Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso (1617-1682), was recognized as the true reincarnation of the fourth Dalai Lama. Drakpa Gyaltsen’s mother Lak Agyal therefore forcibly proclaimed her son to be the reincarnation of the Trulku Gelek Palsang, and he thus got the name Trulku Drakpa Gyaltsen."

message: Today I noticed a very implausible claim in the top section, and removed it, because there was no citation to support it: "In the past, this percentage is thought to have been as high as 60%."  In the published literature I've read about this language, the highest percentage I've ever seen claimed is 11%, back in the 1960s, before the chief instituted a eugenics policy that forbade Deaf people to marry each other. The current edition of Ethnologue cites figures that amount to 1.1%, so I changed that also. (The information that was there before was presumably from an earlier edition of Ethnologue.)

Talk:1963 papal conclave

message: Some claim that Pope Paul VI established the age limit for the Cardinals to vote because of an episode during the Conclave in which he had been elected. It is said that the Archbishop of Milan, who was more than 80 years old, regularly voted on all the ballots for Cardinal Eugenio Pacelli, who had been Pope as Pius XII and died in 1958. I can't be much more precise in this moment, but I think that a short research could provide names and dates. This episode has been referred to by my parson, who apparently heard it from Cardinal Bertone. Should it be inserted or is it too vague?
:Cardinal Montini was born in 1897, so he could only have been aged of about 66 years old in the year 1963. I'm not sure about that story, maybe it's just a rumour, or maybe it has some elements of truth. ADM (talk) 05:55, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
