: In 2006 there was confusion on what the page title should be. Someone attempted to move/redirect the page and accidentally wiped out the talk page. I have restored the old talk page content. --Marc Kupper|talk 05:31, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  There seem to be two talk pages.  A policy page with one comment, and a second regular talk page, which appeared briefly, then I haven't been able to get back to it. 

message: Reviewing the edit history of this article, it seems it sprang, fully formed, from the mind of an IP editor (or perhaps was translocated to this place and time from another):
*15:38, 10 November 2005‎ 128.122.193.222 (talk)‎ . . (5,594 bytes) (+5,559)‎ . . (reestablishing at Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche - see talk) 
Apart from this creation event, there is little further very substantive addition. [No aspersions cast on the editors correcting and maintaining the article.]
The point is that the whole of this article comes from a single source, but that source appears no where in the article. The single reference that appears, to pages in a  Jeremy Hayward book, is about Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche's confirming Ösel Rangdröl as his heir and future Sakyong (i.e., is only ambiguously and tangentially about the title subject). After that, the only other citations that appear regard marital details of the title subject's consort, and these are both dead links.
Hence for all intents and purposes, the state of this article is that: Please, those who care about this subject, do something about it.  Tags were added, given the dire state of this BLP article.  Le Prof  Leprof 7272 (talk) 22:43, 14 July 2014 (UTC)

message: The article says: "Religion Kagyü and Nyingma". This is misleading. It is true that the Sakyong was brought up in the Kagyü and Nyingma traditions, but he is now the leader of and is completely committed to the Shambhala tradition and has eliminated all traces of the Kagyü and Nyingma traditions from his centers. ---Dagme (talk) 22:35, 9 August 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Misleading information 

message: Dear Colleagues: I appreciate your work excising various spurious & aristocratic titles we find among the favored of TrungpaXI. Well done; the Sakyong's era is unique. Is this then an anomoly under BIOGRAPHY, ¶2:  
...Tagtrug “Taggie” Mukpo... followed by ...mother "Lady" Konchuk Paldron... 
I appreciate Tagtrug's well-known nickname in inverted commas. Does it then follow Lady is how confidants referred to the deceased mother? Unknown- yet I am doubtful. More to the point: even if we intend the term in respect, those double quotes themselves are an affliction to our memory of Lady Palden. Where else does the article use such a complex appellation for the mother? Perhaps we allow the encyclopedic to preside over any possible sangha materialism. Or if dear Lady Palden had been bestowed the formal title? Please provide source material. May all beings benefit Hilarleo Hey,L.E.O. 17:46, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
