Talk:Nan'goma Cave

Reference needed
Hi

I've been notified that you requested for more Citations on this page (that I created). Can you specify what kind of citation you would like added, and why the citation already there is not enough ? thanks Ospeleo (talk) 11:19, 5 February 2023 (UTC)


 * There are multiple sources on the web mentioning the existence of Nangoma cave, but the Citation I mentioned is the one where the spelelogist who surveyed and measured the cave provide all data
 * other sources (less valuable/reliable to me)
 * https://www.tzaffairs.org/1991/01/matumbi-my-search-for-a-cave/ (3rd paragraph)
 * https://eturbonews.com/awesome-trip-earth-southern-tanzania/

 * and if you search in books.google.com, there are multiple mentions Ospeleo (talk) 11:37, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
 * I placed the tag because only one source is being used on the article. A minimum of two references are needed - and based on the references you have given I didn't think any of them is reliable enough. Do you have any other references? Thanks. &maltese; SunDawn &maltese;    (contact)   15:28, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Can you specify precisely which piece of information in this article needs to be sourced?
 * It would help me to find a correct reference
 * thank you
 * ps: I don't know your background in the caving field, but Laumanns, the author of the reference I cite, is THE world leading expert in cave knowledge in Africa, he published 60 books on caves in many countries of, etc...
 * There cannot be a more reliable source.
 * All other sources we can find for Nangoma cave length will be derived from this report.

 * Hello ! Wikipedia rules stated that for every article there should be two reliable, verifiable, and independent references. The references from Laumanns is great, but another reference, independent from Laumann (not deriving it from Laumann), is needed on the article. &maltese; SunDawn &maltese;    (contact)   11:28, 6 February 2023 (UTC)
 * this source, independant, reliable, older, written by another PhD writer specialized in cave studie, meets this criteria, don't you think ?
 * https://www.tzaffairs.org/1991/01/matumbi-my-search-for-a-cave/ (3rd paragraph)
 * if not, can you explain why ? I want to find a proper reference that meets the criteria

 * I think it will do! If you have better references please do add it to the article. I have removed the tag. Thank you and happy editing! &maltese; SunDawn &maltese;    (contact)   14:17, 6 February 2023 (UTC)
