Tolui edit
- Nominator(s): ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 14:37, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
Three million deaths in two sieges in two and a bit months; the mass rape of an enemy army; extraordinary military achievements; dying in a shamanic ritual to appease the curses of angered spirits; his wife and sons eventually ruling a continent... all these things were (allegedly) in a life and death's work for Tolui, the youngest son of Genghis Khan. This nomination will be used in the WikiCup if successful; I hope you enjoy the article. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 14:37, 15 August 2023 (UTC)

- Thanks Mike. Since you're here already, and you're one of the best at it, could I ask if you're available to do the source review? (If it helps, there aren't any medieval chronicles with annoying dates.) ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 11:42, 27 August 2023 (UTC)
- Sure -- will take a look now. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 11:50, 27 August 2023 (UTC)

Comments from Golden edit
I reviewed this article at GAN and found it fascinating. It's definitely one of my favorite GANs that I've reviewed, so I'm happy to see it at FAC. I'll take another look at it here. — Golden talk 23:07, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
