Modern Usage
The sentence - "Kurul" is also a verb in Turkish meaning to be established. - is deleted since "kurul" is not a verb. "kur" is the verb and "-ul" is the passive particle. eg: "vur"-mak(to hit), "vurul"-mak(to be hit) ; "sat"-mak(to sell), "satıl"-mak(to be sold) ; "sev"-mek(to like/love), "sevil"-mek(to be liked/loved) ; "yüz"-mek(to skin), "yüzül"-mek(to be skinned),... Also all the modern Turkish examples are on "kurul" though the article is about "kurultay". Even a google search gives 1530000 results for "kurultay" so it was quite possible to rewrite this paragraph with relevant examples. I didn't want to be rude to the original writer and delete all the paragraph to rewrite but I think the examples should have been for "kur-ul-tay" not "kur-ul". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.246.75.192 (talk) 14:00, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

Details regarding the kurultai ceremony itself
While this is a good start, the article is very lacking in any details pertaining to the conduct of the kurultai ceremonies themselves. Based on what is presented in this article, if I did not know the title of the page, I wouldn't necessarily know what this article is about. Perhaps more using more references or more recent references might prove a good place to start improving this article. Nkkincai (talk) 01:35, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
 * welcome to Wikipedia! I think you're absolutely right—this article could use some serious work. If you have the time to do some research, I'm sure you could make some good improvements. I don't know too much about kurultais, but I'd be happy to answer editing-related questions if you have any. You can summon me by writing  on any talk page :)—Neil P.
