I have substantially improved the inline references and the footnote list.--Michael Hancock (talk) 18:20, 29 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Edit Nov 8 2010

I have substantially edited the Sayram page to include more historical accuracy with regard to historically verifiable publications, including dates, details, and figures from the history of Sayram. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Xhancock (talk • contribs) 06:27, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The reason I undid the last revision is that I wish to continue to flesh out the history. Particularly I would like to update the incorrect dates on Ahmed Yasawi and work to remove this character from the body of the history. Similarly I would like to add more detail to the 1300-1800 years, across Wikipedia and Central Asia, and I am beginning with the Sayram article, since I authored it in the first place. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Xhancock (talk • contribs) 06:32, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
