other Taktser Rinpoches?

This reads like a summary article about Thubten Jigme Norbu. Is there any information about the other Taktser Rinpoches? --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 19:54, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The Taktsers seem to have been pretty obscure tülkus prior to one of them ending up as the brother of the current Dalai Lama. It's typical that we have little or no information available about Tibetan Buddhist lineages like that. In practice, then, the article on the lineage often ends up combined with the article on the most famous representative (if there is no famous representative of the lineage, then there's usually no source material with which to create an article on the lineage at all). In this case, someone seems to have decided to create a separate article for the lineage, but here our reach exceeds our grasp, since we don't have additional information to put in the lineage article. – Greg Pandatshang (talk) 17:07, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
