Hi! I've added {{Infobox nobility}} for Aldimir and reworded the caption of the map. What I meant to say was that it's actually a map of Theodore Svetoslav's campaigns, but it a also shows the extent of Aldimir's domain at the time. There's no more information about Aldimir's origin and childhood than what we have in the article. All we know is that he was a brother of George I and he was thus of Cuman descent. Pavlov's theory that they came from Hungary and are of Cuman royal descent (mentioned in the article) is very plausible, but it's not based on direct evidence. —

Good... we're about done. :) Next, in Under Theodore Svetoslav, let's mention in the timeline the birth of Ivan Dragushin and/if there are any significances associated with his birth that affected Aldimir. btw, was Marina Smilets the biological mother of Ivan?

Unfortunately, it is unknown when Ivan Dragushin was born. In fact, the only source linking him to Aldimir is Dragushin's epitaph in the Pološko Monastery (the one with the portraits). I remember reading in The Family of the Asens by Ivan Bozhilov that it was only relatively recent studies that confirmed Ivan Dragushin was Aldimir's son. Until then, it was thought Ivan may have been a member of the
Asen dynasty, and he was included in that book under this presumption.
Very well :) We can stop here then... appropriately! That info would be better served in a Dragushin article than here. So, I am going to pass because really, everything is green and you're at the source limit. Nice work! Rcej (Robert) - talk08:42, 19 February 2011 (UTC)reply
