The last sentence of the section on Tengrism and Christianity needs to be restated (one way or another).
This sentence states that "... it is clear from a letter by Güyük Khan, sent to the Pope, that the Mongols won't convert to Christianity, because they wouldn't obey the word of Möngke Tengri (Eternal God)." I think this statement is not clear and is very confusing. The most natural interpretation of this statement is that the "word of Möngke Tengri" supports the Mongols conversion to Christianity but the Mongols refuse to convert to Christianity because they refuse to obey the "word of Möngke Tengri". But after carefully reading this article it seems to me that this can't be correct, since (presumably) the Mongols of that historical period were committed to obey the "word of Möngke Tengri". If this is correct then this sentence should be changed to something like "the Mongols won't convert to Christianity, because doing so would mean that they wouldn't be obeying the word of Möngke Tengri (Eternal God)."
However, since I am not sure about this I didn't want to try to make these changes myself. But I hope that someone who is more knowledgeable than I am about this topic will let me know if my analysis is correct and, if it is, that they will make these changes (or some similar changes) to make the meaning of this sentence clear.

Under Tengrism and Islam:
First sentence first paragraph: "fixiated" is not a word; change to "fixed" or "set"
First sentence third paragraph: "did not existed" change to "did not exist" 192.0.161.254 (talk) 00:37, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This symbol appears to come from a defunct Russian/Yakut-language website called Tengry.org. Looking at archives of the site, I cannot really find the image, but the site seems dedicated to shamanism and neo-paganism, and does things like make predictions about the future, talk about UFOs, hyperborea, etc.
The symbol itself appears to be something called a Shanyrak, Tunduk, Toono etc., which is something used in the construction of the yurt, at the top. The shanyrak as it's called in Russian, can be found on things like the flag of Kyrgyzstan or the Kazakh coat of arms, but seems to have no relation to Tengrism in particular. The inclusion of Old Turkic script seems most likely to be an addition from Tengry.org. The explanation of the symbol's meaning on the file on wikimedia as a shaman's drum or even the structure of the universe seems to have no evidence for it.
Given that there is no evidence for the origin of this symbol apart from a disreputable and now defunct page, that there is no evidence of its use historically nor by any major organized group today, and that the symbol's composition and relation to Tengrism is extremely questionable, I propose this symbol be removed. This symbol appears on the Tengrism portal across Wikipedia and even appears on google, with no evidence for it having anything to do with Tengrism.
