This article has been checked against the following criteria for B-class status:
The mainstream historians have always emphasized Emperor Taizong's support for various religions, such as Confucianism, Buddhism, Daoism etc, besides Taizong's pragmatic approach to using them as a tool for imperial political stability.[1][2]
The vast majority of sources verify that Taizong never declared Buddhism or any other religion superior to Chinese religion, so Amy Chua's claims that Taizong's declaration of Buddhism is superior to Chinese religion are fringe. As Amy Chua's claims can be biased and inconsistent with mainstream historical views, her claims will be unreliable as a source to be used.

Nothing in that supports a removal of the reported views on syncretism. "I don't like the author" is not a sufficient reason for removal of content; you will have to come up with a better justification. Restored until such is provided. --Elmidae (

I never said "I don't like the author".
There is not an one inch evidence for the claim that Taizong ever "declared" Buddhism or any other religion as "superior to the Chinese religions." Amy Chuclaimed d it in her book without providing any sources for and never got verified any other historians as well. Her view is a self proclaimed minority view and should not given any weight.l.
