Orthography[edit]

Some historians write it as Shih-wei. ("Şı-veğ" in Turkish) Böri (talk) 15:19, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Taiwanese artist[edit]

The paragraph on a Taiwanese artist has nothing to do with the Mongol people and should be deleted. Caeruleancentaur (talk) 22:31, 31 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The correct solution would be to move that material to a seperate article (assuming there are reliable independent sources available about him). --Latebird (talk) 21:22, 3 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

For the sake of order, I'm taking the liberty of deleting it for now. If anyone else wants to make a separate article about the artist using the removed text, feel free to do so. Jonas Liljeström (talk) 11:38, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Chinese village Shiwei (室韦)[edit]

There's also a chinese village/town named Shiwei (室韦) (geonames.org) at the Argun River near the Russian border at 51°20′N 119°54′E / 51.34°N 119.9°E / 51.34; 119.9. --katpatuka (talk) 05:20, 29 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ethnic relations[edit]

Only few of them Mongols: Mengwu Shiwei

Wuluohun is said to be another name for the Uriankhai
The Da Shiwei tribe is thought to be descended from some Rouran who fled east after being defeated by the Turks in 555.

Are these rulers were Mongols or Tungusic?

Chaniandoufa (544 AD)
