[edit] Rename?

Normally, this article would have to be renamed to "Choijiljavyn Tseveenpürev" as of WP:MON. But then, he seems to have systematically used "Choi Tseveenpurev" in an international context. Pretty much all of his English language audience now thinks that "Choi" is his first name (in reality, it's his father who is/was named "Choijiljav"), and mistakes his given name Tseveenpürev as a family name. Although he's not extremely famous, two thousand Google hits for "Choi Tseveenpurev" vs. one hit for "Choijiljavyn Tseveenpurev" should probably be regarded "common english use" enough to keep the current title. The "Mongolian name" template at the top hopefully eliminates any reader's confusion. --Latebird (talk) 04:19, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Correct, per WP:COMMONNAME it should Choi.--Vintagekits (talk) 09:38, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
