Welcome! The aim of this project is to standardize and improve articles related to Tibet and Tibet Autonomous Region. It is also to establish missing articles related to Tibet including geography (Tibetan villages) as well as to improve and create missing articles related to the Tibetan culture and Tibetan Buddhism.

For the transcription of Tibetan words and names, and for the naming of articles, please see the proposed naming convention for Tibetan.
