Collister is a primary source for all practical purposes — the material on Duar War and its effects are summarized from British reports etc. with negligible independent analyses and I will prefer citing Rennie or the Mission reports! The less said about Labh, the better and he is not a HISTRS. Bhutanese textbooks are not suitable for use either. Phuntsho's work can be classed in the genre of pop history and his academic training was not in history but Religious Studies.
However, Singh (1988) looks good: I need to consult it. Wangyal and Das are decent too. TrangaBellam ( talk) 18:26, 28 February 2022 (UTC) reply

Bhutan WarDuar War – per COMMONNAME. Most sources describe it as Duar War and not Bhutan War.  TryKid dubiousdiscuss 01:12, 25 September 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Support per WP:PRECISE as well; the war was really about the Duars more than it was about Bhutan itself. Zoozaz1 talk 11:53, 25 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Support (as proposer): Karma Phuntsho's The History of Bhutan, considered to be the authoritative book on Bhutanese history, uses the term Duar War. I've listed some other sources in the section above, which mostly use Duar War too. David Rennie, who participated in the war and wrote about the it while returning to England, also used Duar War (although with an archaic spelling of Duar). So it's pretty clear Duar War is the common name. Regards, TryKid dubiousdiscuss 13:39, 25 September 2020 (UTC) reply
