Plagiarism

The entire "History and traditions" section is copied directly from one of the external links: http://www.FriendShipBraceletInstructions.com/ I don't have the time to rewrite it right now, but this should be fixed. Perfectionaintperfect (talk) 01:41, 27 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Africa?

This article links from a keyword in an article about afro-peruvians and misanga is referred to as a LOCATION — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.191.103.17 (talk) 23:34, 6 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Article Review

Hello fellow wikipedians, I would like to suggest a couple of edits for this article. Obviously a citation needs to be added for the section on Missanga, and I think a photo would be helpful there as well. It might also be useful to add links to popular friendship bracelet websites such as braceletbook.net under "external links". There is also a discrepancy between the introduction and history sections; the introduction says that the popularity surge happened in the 1970s while the history section says it was in the 1980s. Overall, this article gives a good basic overview of the topic but could use a few improvements. Avamcclung (talk) 01:13, 8 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
