Should this article being named horde; while orda should be a redirect? I'm asking because I'm interested in seeing that the most commonly searched english term be the article name. — fcsuper ( How's That?, That's How!) ( Exclusionistic Immediatist ) — 22:29, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
Contrary to claim "Turkish orta, which means side...", orta in Turkish means center. Nedim Ardoğa ( talk) 14:54, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
I generally take a pretty dim view of proliferation of pop culture trivia on Wikipedia but the fact that the word "horde" is derived from this orda and that "horde" has extensively entered both popular and literary usage perhaps those links should be mentioned in the article.

I don't really see why we need this article. The terminology can be fully discussed at wikt:horde, and the actual history of the Mongol Empire at the Mongol Empire article. The range of meanings can be fully covered by enumerating dictionary meanings, as in OED:
What Marek is asking is, should we discuss the "2. transf." meaning. But this is exactly why we have wiktionary: to discuss the various meanings of words. Because we have wiktionary, we don't need to do this here. -- dab (𒁳) 13:17, 28 April 2011 (UTC)
I don't think the merger of Ordo (palace) was correct. The words may be similar, but the meanings are as different as tent vs horde. Unless there are any objections, I'll reverse that merger shortly. -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 19:24, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
I read the long-form historical essay by Marie Favereau today: How the (Much Maligned) Mongol Horde Helped Create Russian Civilization, in Quillette, dated 11 June 2021. Great benefit to me and my own study of Russian history; might be useful to improve the article. Cheers. N2e ( talk) 02:03, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
