Well then, looks like this is a project waiting to happen. Check out Gansu, China. I put some work into that one, adding links and such, because I found it with "random page". That page should be incorporated into this one. There's a lot of good information in Gansu, China, and it's certainly more friendly. I'll work on it, but if anyone wants to help... -- Iwonderandiwander 22:47, 31 Jan 2005 (UTC)
In the meantime you might want to look at Wikipedia:WikiProject Chinese provinces. -- ran ( talk) 04:06, Feb 1, 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for saying it is more friendly because I wrote all the base info. I hope that somebody incorparates it with that other one because I am to busy.
Someone needs to put something in that section or take it away. "Labrang Monastery..." is NOT a section.

from lede as the combined province explanation further down is much more common. If there is cite for this, great, but don't leave it in lede without mentioning more common etymology. — LlywelynII 05:09, 17 September 2011 (UTC)

The first sentence of the intro had emphasized that this province was "landlocked." While technically true, this strikes me as rather odd to emphasize in the first sentence of the intro of an article about a sub-national entity. The [Colorado]] article, for example, doesn't mention the state lacking a coastline, and I don't believe any of the articles on US states mention it in their first sentence. Being "landlocked" is more relevant for sovereign independent states than subdivisions thereof. - 2003:CA:872F:268C:F4D1:7329:A842:E715 ( talk) 13:02, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
