Talk:Roma people/to do


 * add IPA pronunciation for "Roma" at start of article
 * summarize peer review into tasks for to do list
 * compile population records by country
 * New articles on History of the Roma people and Roma society and culture have been created, so its time to expand those articles (I've copied the original sections) and prune the main article down to a reasonable size. Wachholder0 00:59, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
 * The Roma Dance section needs a lot of editing; I began editing the grammar and spelling (etc) but I found that I couldn't really understand what the first sentence meant, so I stopped. If anyone has information on that section and knows how to write without making too many errors (in their grammar, spelling, and so on), please do.
 * There need to be more references to the other theories of where other Gypsy groups claim to be from, for example the Balkan Egyptians. The article seems too sure of the origin and history of the Roma, when it is in fact not completely verified and there are many theories.

The above paragraph is incorrect, and the Rom have been definitively placed as having left India around 1,000 AD from a mixture of Punjabi and "Aryan" genetics. The sources on this are too many to list, but the O Vurdon website (http://www.vurdon.it/english.htm) lists several of them, as well as providing a migration map.69.29.222.62 03:42, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
