 Turkic or Mongolian? An End to the Edit wars and extra details of Timur? 

Trigger Warning

I think there is some issue with some people when they call this man Mongolian or Turkic. The reason I'm writing this, I want to add extra information about the Barlas Tribe in which he is descendant from in this article in his Early Life. Timur is not of ""direct Chinggisid descent"", he is Son-In-Law(kürgän)or Gurkani of the Chinggisd through his marriage, yet he is Mongolian. It is simple, one of his ancestors of the Barlas was named Qarachar Noyon who was ""head of corps"" for the House of Chaghadai and by this became ""Chaghadai Khan’s chief administrator as well as chief judge of the yarghu, or court of investigation, through which Mongol law was enforced"".

Do you think it is appropriate to increase his backstory by mentioning Qarachar Noyon, my source is The New Cambridge History of Islam, in which each chapter is written by an expert in their respective studies."
