Talk:Battle of Parwan

message: Excerpt from Dupuy, Trevor N.; Dupuy, R. Ernest (1993). The Harper Encyclopedia of Military History. Harper Collins Publishers, page 366:
 1221. Battle of Pirvan. While Genghis was gathering his sons' contingents for another campaign together, Jellaluddin with 120,000 men defeated an advance Mongol force of 3 toumans (30,000 men) in the Hindi Kush Mountains northwest of Ghazni. Genghis moved swiftly to avenge the defeat, and the Turkish prince, deserted by his Afghan allies, withdrew into the Northern Pubjab with about 30,000 men. Genghis followed with more than 50,000.
As of now, there seems to be no controversy after the previous (and last up to now) objection, but I am still adding this info for any possible future objection. --Ruhubelent (talk) 11:29, 20 October 2020 (UTC)

Jellaluddin, now deserted by his Afghan allies, withdraws with about 30,000 men into the northern Punjab, pursued by Genghis Khan and a force of 50,000 Mongols.

thread_title:  A Global Chronology of Conflict: From the Ancient World to the Modern Middle also gives the Khwarazmian strength as 120,000 

message: The army strengths in the infobox and the dedicated section seem utterly confused. (Hohum @) 13:52, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: What do you mean? You mean "the lowest estimate" sides should be updated? That is the only thing I see that might be considered confusion. While your point is kinda true, Carl Sverdrup evaluates what the true numbers might have been and states the reported numbers are hugely exagerated whereas others just choose which of the reported ones might be closest to be true, without taking into account the possibility of exageration --81.213.215.83 (talk) 21:11, 17 October 2021 (UTC)

text: Updated, . Now the seemingly confusion should go away. --81.213.215.83 (talk) 21:17, 17 October 2021 (UTC)

text: And what do you think about merging the section Aftermath and Legacy? I think the two should be merged and named "Aftermath and Legacy" because the insurgency that emerged after this battle serves both sections as well as all the things in the legacy section. Also, does the article qualify to be good or A-class? --81.213.215.83 (talk) 05:53, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
