Talk:Ali Birra

Editing
Hello everyone! There are of lot of confusing sentences and grammar mistakes in this article. Is there any way someone can run through it and fix those issues? I see that someone else has been working through it, which is great. If no one else can, I'll try to sometime soon. The content itself is fine, just needs to be properly written. 65.128.173.238 (talk) 07:53, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

Dear Editer

I am very confused about the Ali birra life history. are you sure ali was a solo singer with in Imperial body gard orhcestera and the Iyoal yohannes it does not exist at all as a head of that particular group because the head of that orchestra at the time was Major Girma Hadjo who is one of the peope in that fied trained in Germany. Major Hadjo Left the I.B.G.O before the revolution. Pls. do not paint this wonder full singer name a load of shit. I know what you call it kibur zebegna orchestra again because my father use to be with them all of his life from the age of seventeen.

Do you accept what I am telling you. If you do not I will contact Mr Ali birra. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.161.120.92 (talk • contribs) 19:27, 5 July 2008

Years active
I just updated "Years active" in the infobox to indicate that the subject had died. But I noticed that the first year is 1955. This means that the subject began performing at the age of 5 (or so). I doubt this is correct, however I don't know what the correct year would be, either. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 17:15, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

Not dead
As of Aug. 2009, the subject was still alive, according to the source I found (and cited). Recent versions of this article claimed he died in April 2009. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 20:50, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

Moved comment from article
I have moved the following comment from the article to the talk page. I'm not sure we have any way of verifying that this person is, indeed, the subject of the article, which is why we'd still need reliable sources to support any updates, corrections, etc. I will leave a note at the IP talk page about WP:BLPHELP. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 21:12, 24 February 2010 (UTC) "I am Ali birra and I am alive.
