I don't know how to edit the top paragraph (all the others have "edit" option) but it should be made explicit that the Chinese government considers the Dolan people to be Uyghurs; it does not recognize Dolans as a separate ethnic group, even though anthropologists undoubtedly would. (Same is true of the Loplik people.) Discussed in Dru C. Gladney, Dislocating China, p. 195.Fjdksla8 (talk) 10:26, 28 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
