DiplomatTesterMan, I have removed references to Chiakang, because it is the wrong location for it. And, I have added a mention of Churkang. I will leave the clean-up of the Infobox to you. -- Kautilya3 ( talk) 15:03, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
...the Dumchele border trading point in Skakjung. However the article Dumchele has the line:
Areas between Dumchele and Demchok such as [...] Skakjung are China administered territories.. This is a contradiction. Is "Dumchele in Skakjung"? OR is "Skakjung located between Dumchele and Demchok"? I can't make out from the map on Skakjung due to the fold (?). DTM ( talk) 06:03, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
Kautilya3 The coordinate I was talking about above, OSM Node: 3127745564, which you said is a military base; I think that is Jiagang. Look at the images of Jiangang in the Chinese sources. The structures and layout look similar. Also, I don't think it is a military base; does it look like one? If not Jiagang, then Churkang? DTM ( talk) 14:22, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
So, what is the old place that we were thinking of as Jiagang? It has a name in Chinese. MarkH21 will have to tell us what it says. -- Kautilya3 ( talk) 17:16, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
沃卖(pinyin: wòmài). I can't really see the third character clearly enough to guess at what it says. — MarkH21 talk 22:54, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
I think I have found the old Churkang also, marked as Qukang on Tianditu. It is exactly where the Pundits of British Raj found it to be. -- Kautilya3 ( talk) 16:56, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
Kautilya3, remember how Chagkang or Chiakang was removed from the article in this . I read this just now... Claude Arpi writes —
The Chinese website said that "Jaggang Village is located in the southern part of Rutog County, 70 kilometers away from the county town. It is a typical plateau village." But it is not an ordinary village, it is also known as Chagkang or Chiakang and situated very close to Demchok in Ladakh. ( source)

Hi DiplomatTesterMan, do you remember where the Tibetan script name came from? (ལྕགས་སྒང)
It looks like the confusions we had earlier are real. The original Jaggang village is on the other side of Maga Tsangpo. -- Kautilya3 ( talk) 16:36, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
