Is this how Ulaanbaatar got its name

 * Many Asian multituberculates have names ending in baatar. Not sure how the tradition began, but it even includes some dinosaurs, such as Tarbosaurus bataar, named in 1955, long before Catopsbaatar. FunkMonk (talk) 11:34, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
 * The earliest one appears to be Buginbaatar in 1969. The tradition appears to have been started by Zofia Kielan-Jaworowska and colleagues, who named numerous -baatar genera during the 1970's. It's not just asian taxa either, see Albionbaatar. Hemiauchenia (talk) 01:44, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Interestingly, the Mongolian capital was apparently not called Ulaanbaatar until 1924, and apparently under Soviet influence ("red hero"). I thought it was some ancient name, but seems like there isn't too long between its coinage and the names of these fossil taxa after all... And googling a bit, it appears the animals were actually named after the capital: I'll try to add this info, so turns out this joke section wasn't so useless after all...
