Wikipedia's article on Manichaeism, community-edited. States its continued rivalry with Buddhism among the Uyghurs into the thirteenth century, the 1370 CE ban under Ming China, its subsumption into Buddhism and Taoism before the end of the fourteenth century, and the surviving Cao'an temple site in Jinjiang, Fujian.

Reliability Tier
3
Community-edited reference page, tier 3. Used specifically for the more precise Chinese extinction dating (the 1370 Ming ban, fourteenth-century subsumption), named against source one's own looser fifteenth-to-sixteenth-century estimate as a genuine disagreement between the two rather than smoothed to either.
Notes
Used for Manichaeism's final extinction in China, the 1370 Ming ban and the Cao'an temple.
