Article should be merged with Shelkar[edit]

Article is duplicated with Shelkar and should be merged.

On a side note, location is not "latitude of 28° 37' 60N and a longitude of 87° 4' 60E", but 28°39'20"N 87°07'20"E.--Pseudois (talk) 19:51, 29 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Xêgar, per WP:PLACE#China. ––虞海 (Yú Hǎi) ✍ 08:14, 30 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I would prefer a merge to Shelkar as it is the most commonly used English spelling in books dealing with Shelkar(see Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_(Tibetan)#General_guideline). Shelkar (sometimes Shekar) is known in the English speaking world since at least the early 1920ies when the first expeditions to Everest stopped there on their way to the north side of the mountain. --Pseudois (talk) 15:38, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
