Ermenrich, you should assume good faith and stop with this paranoia that everything is Turkish-nationalism related (1,2).

The content you just removed after our heated topic-related discussions elsewhere has been here for quite a while. The op rightly skipped the mention of Pristak, outright ascribing to the name Turkic origin, because such origin is accepted (actually, it is the only proposed etymology; which was never discussed), and the relation is pretty clear even to laymen (Mundzuk->Mundus).

Then, Giesmus, his father, does not have an article, and it is perfectly legit, and logic, to include a mention of his name's etymology in this article. By deleting that part you removed valuable information from Wikipedia, and if hadn't had this page in my watchlist it might have been lost forever.

The etymology of Giesmus as proposed by a single scholar, Pritsak is not relevant to this article. This is not a "common fact" about him and serves no purpose here whatsoever. As for Mundus, whether Pritsak's is "the only proposed etymology" is irrelevant - we still need to attribute it as something potentially controversial. If this etymology were widely accepted, it would be cited elsewhere.

The OP was likely user:WorldCreaterFighter or any number of other pan-Turkic sock masters haunting this area. --Ermenrich (talk) 00:10, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
