This story doesn't make any sense. What is the source? Can someone please rewrite it in English?

Incorrect name in reference?

The line: "Indeed, his dialectical success against buddhists is confirmed by Buddhist historian Tathagata, who reports that Bhaṭṭa defeated disciples of Buddhapalkita, Bhavya, Dharmadasa, Dignaga and others.[7] " It doesn't make sense to say Buddhist historian Tathagata. I believe Taranatha (Tibetan Buddhist Historian) is meant. However, I don't have any references at hand.
