Gibberish & fake refs

[edit]

If your English isn't good enough to improve this article, please write what you want here, and we can work out the wording.

However, you need reliable sources that support your claims. Please read WP:RS.

As long as your refs do not support your claims, I will revert your edits. I'm getting tired of the garbage being written in this article, and if it keeps up, will request that it be protected. When that happens, you won't be able to edit it at all.

[edit]

The Kamwe people have a custom and an organised way of naming their children before a child is born. They have customised names for a girl and a boy child. The first born male child is called Tizhe. The first born female child is called Kuve.[1]

Not done: Interesting, but I don't know where it would fit in the article.
If you want to suggest a change, please request this in the form "Please replace XXX with YYY" or "Please add ZZZ between PPP and QQQ".
More importantly, you must cite reliable sources to back up your request, without which no information should be added to, or changed in, any article. - Arjayay (talk) 08:55, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The main problem is that you don't provide references for most of your edits, and when you do provide them, they fail verification. Thus we don't know if your claims are true or a hoax. But I don't mind putting this in the section on people, since the entire section is tagged as unreferenced anyway, and will probably be deleted sooner or later if you don't provide refs. — kwami (talk) 17:03, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The "oral interview" isn't a reference. How is anyone supposed to check it? The book is fine, but I don't know what it's supposed to support. Perhaps you can ask one of your teachers how to reference things. Surely you do that in school? Or will in a few years? — kwami (talk) 00:00, 20 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
