Unibrow[edit]

"He is also notable for having a prominant unibrow."

--How exactly is that notable? It's not like it's an accomplishment or something.

Well it IS noted on the wikipedia unibrow page, and is noted there, so why not here. I would argue tha it is an accomplishment. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.7.200.50 (talk) 03:33, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Uzbek or Uyghur?[edit]

In the lead, he is described as an ethnic Uzbek, but in the section "Personal life", it is claimed that he is an ethnic Uyghur. If someone who is knowledgeable enough could look into that! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.100.25.209 (talk) 12:20, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No enough information to confirm he is Uzbek[edit]

The cited bibliography [1] does not contain any information regarding his ethnicity. Thus, it can not be said that he is Uzbek. My suggestion is to leave it blank until clear evidence provided. سادىق سېتىنىياز (talk) 17:06, 8 December 2015 (UTC) سادىق سېتىنىياز (talk) 17:06, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Is his birthplace Uzgen (O`zgan in Uzbek, an Uzbek supermajority town) good enough? He holds Order of Amir Temur, Uzbekistan's top award. Quick google shows this link: http://rus.azattyq.org/a/sharipov_russia_students_kyrgyzstan_rzhev_/24182236.html. He explicitly mentioned his ethnicity. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:46:C602:A956:60C7:4B5B:6A7D:A650 (talk) 01:33, 23 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
