[edit]What does "grounation" mean? --AW (talk) 21:26, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
- I wondered that too. "Ground" or "grounding", from Selassie coming on Jamaican ground, plus "coronation"? --BDD (talk) 16:59, 30 March 2017 (UTC)

POV???
[edit]as with so many of the articles concerning Salassie there may be a POV issue here. The text strikes me as just a little too laudatory and devotional to be encyclopedic. Just a thought.PurpleChez (talk) 12:44, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
--Animal Rites (talk) 08:17, 18 January 2021 (UTC)== Citations and visit ==
I'm interested in learning more information about the coffin shaped cigarette boxes and other memorabilia Selassie gave to the important people of Jamaica and possibly seeing pictures. What book is referenced in citation number 6?
