Just an editorial question here, do we really routinely need to put the phonetics on every page? I can image there is a good use for that for words like bodhicitta (sem-kye) or so, but what ordinary person would need to know jedrak tu tokpar jepa? For me it just makes the page look more messy.

No, not on pages such as this. You are right. --adam (talk) 14:47, 6 April 2018 (CEST)

It would be good to have consistency across all pages instead of arbitrary rules. Kent (talk) 19:26, 6 April 2018 (CEST)

The other point is that you never know if a page inspires someone to learn Tibetan by looking at the phonetics and the letters. Kent (talk) 19:27, 6 April 2018 (CEST)

I also think it would be good to be consistent with all pages. After all, what is indicated in the Editorial guidelines is Skt. Tibetan, phonetics, Wylie, and then Chinese - so any changes to this need to be added to the Guidelines. As a matter of interest, I find it makes 'the page look more messy' when Chinese is added as well - it seems a bit over the top.... Ts.
