Rangjung Yeshe Wiki

The Rangjung Yeshe Wiki is a Wiki community established in 2005 focussing on building a Tibetan-English Dictionary, glossaries of Buddhist terminology, biographies of Buddhist teachers, data on important Tibetan Buddhist literary works and collections, and developing resources useful for the "community of lotsawas" involved in translating Buddhist texts from Classical Tibetan to English and other European Languages.[1] The original content of the Wiki was based on a digital Tibetan-English dictionary compiled by the translator Erik Pema Kunsang since the early 1970s. The Rangjung Yeshe Wiki currently has over 23,720 content pages, 1,060 uploaded files, and 825 registered users.[2][3] The site is hosted and supported by the Tsadra Foundation.
