The later Chairmen listed here are ethnic Tibetans who are listed with Tibetan-style names, but the names are given in Hanyu Pinyin, which is to say that they show the Mandarin Chinese pronunciation of the characters that would be used to write their names. However, since Tibetans tend to use a pretty narrow range of names, it is possible to guess with some accuracy what the equivalent Tibetan name would be. I'm not going to add this to the article right now, though, since I don't have direct evidence of these names. I'm putting here since it might be useful for future editors who see the names written differently in some source:

Sangjiyuexi = Sangye Yeshe, Sanggyai Yêxê
Duojiecaidan = Dorje Tseden, Dorje Caidain
Duojicairang = Dorje Tsering, Dorje Cering
Jiangcunluobu = Gyaltsen Norbu, Gyaincain Norbu (this one I'm sure of, since he happened to be in office at the time that Qoigyijabu was selected to be the 11th Panchen Lama, and they happened to have the same name, since Qoigyijabu was born Gyaincain Norbu)
Legqog = this is already a Tibetan name. I guess it could also be spelled Legchog or Lekchok.—Nat Krause^{(Talk!·What have I done?)} 20:40, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What does this mean?[edit]

"did nearly not govern himself"

The meaning of that is not clear in English. Joechip123 (talk) 02:36, 30 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
