Hello I want to request an edit. In linguistic part of Khazars, it says "The latter based upon the assertion of the Persian historian Istakhri the Khazar language was different from any other known tongue."

But when you look at the source it says "al-Iṣṭakhrī's account however then contradicts itself by likening the language to Bulğaric (Golden 2007a, pp. 13–14, 14 n.28)."

Since old Bulğaric was a Turkic language its normal for him to linkening. But I think it's a very important detail! Why it is hidden? I think a neutral sentence should be:

"The latter based upon the assertion of the Persian historian Istakhri the Khazar language was different from any other known tongue, al-Iṣṭakhrī's account however then contradicts itself by likening the language to Bulğaric"

I can't understand this sentence.

The state became the autonomous entity of Rus' and then of Khazar former provinces of (Khwarazm in which Khazars were known as Turks, just as Hungarians were known as Turks in Byzantium) in Volga Bulgaria.

Unless you can rewrite it easily, please add {{clarify}} at the end of the sentence. 123.51.107.94 (talk) 23:00, 20 October 2024 (UTC)

I just removed the sentence since I agree it didn't make sense. But we can add some version of it back if we can figure out what's going on there. Andre🚐 23:25, 20 October 2024 (UTC)

In the first sentence, please remove this phrase:

late 6th-century CE

and replace it with this:

late 6th century CE

The hyphen is needed when using the century as an adjective ("a late 6th-century CE event") but since this is just talking about the century itself ("it happened in the late 6th century CE"), the hyphen doesn't belong here. 123.51.107.94 (talk) 23:02, 20 October 2024 (UTC)

As you can see at the top of this page, the target no longer has a "Genghisids" section. The content once in that section is now in the "Post-Mongol Empire" section. 123.51.107.94 (talk) 01:31, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
