Copyediting Done

[edit]

Responding to the Wikipedia Community portal, I came to this page and copyedited it for good English, and tried to fix up some of the references into better style. I hope you'll agree it's better now than it was. My only problem left with the page is the references to publications without any publication information, and I was unable to obtain this information. I suspect some of these titles are some of their self-published material, which makes it a poor reference, really, in my opinion. Suggestions for improvement would be to find citations that are not self-published wherever possible, and of course to improve the standard of all the citations. The Wikipedia Reference Generator is invaluable in this. Good luck! Clippership (talk) 22:45, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wrt the mentioned references, only 2 references were used that were based on the centre's in-house publications as some of these activities were not covered in the main stream media or by independent sources during my earlier research. I welcome u or anyone who cld replace them with relevent citations if they cld be found in the near future. Thank u for your excellent copyedits in improving the article further for the benefit of Wikipedia & its readers esp those keen in the development of Tibetan Buddhism in Singapore. -- Aldwinteo (talk) 23:49, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
