Reliability Tier3
Reliability tier 3: a Wikipedia entry, written and revised by unnamed volunteer editors, suited to an uncontested, easily checked biographical point rather than a disputed claim. NotesWikipedia's article on Zhang Boduan, consulted 2026-08-12. A perpetually community-edited reference page rather than a peer-reviewed publication, useful here for his biography, his authorship of the Wuzhen pian around 1075, and his later canonization as the second of the Five Southern Patriarchs.
