 * I think the point Takabeg is trying to make is that WP:AT recommends using gbooks, not normal google, and if you believe that should change, you should take your opinion to the talk page. Jenks24 (talk) 11:44, 6 August 2011 (UTC)

Addition of Buddhism
A search of The Encyclopaedia of Islam for Eretna, Eretnids; proof that Eretna's family had been Buddhist at one time, but no mention that he was Buddhist or the dynasty he founded was Buddhist. --Kansas Bear (talk) 18:43, 28 November 2015 (UTC)
 * "ERETNA (Aratna, Ardani?), name of a chief of Uyghur origin, who made his fortune in Asia Minor as an heir of the Ilkhanid regime. The name is perhaps to be explained by Sanskrit ratna jewel common among the Oyghur after the spread of Buddhism (communication from L. Bazin); this was of course no bar to the family becoming Muslim, like all the Mongols and Turks in the Ilkhanid state."
