Serer religion
Hi I saw your comment on Serer religion edit summary. I couldn't agree more. We have some dedicated POV pushers on Wiki who have targeted Serer and African articles in particular for their racist and anti-African agenda. I have no time for these people. Tamsier (talk) 18:55, 8 August 2015 (UTC)

Hmm...
Another single edit like this that comes anywhere close to violating one of our core pillars and one of our most sacrosanct guidelines will lead to possible revocation of your editing priveleges. Best, ~ Winged Blades Godric 14:59, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Hmm... Tell me exactly what you take issue with? Is it that what I wrote is untrue/false or is it that I didn't sugar coat it enough? If I know what you take issue with at least I know what to do moving forward. I eagerly await your wisdom. Senegambianamestudy (talk) 20:39, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
 * No answer! As I thought. I gave you four days to respond and you failed to do so, which tells me you merely came to my talk page to make a silly rant rather than address the issue I wrote on that talk page. Consider this a warning. Never come on my talk page again with this foolishness or you will be reported. If you have a different view contrary to what I wrote, you should have expressed it on that talk page rather than come to my talk page with such foolishness. Let this be the last.

July 2018
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to Category:Black supremacy ‎, without good reason. They need to have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 22:04, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

Ok, there's no belief in witchcraft in Africa!
I'll be watching you. Johnbod (talk) 00:44, 18 July 2018 (UTC)
 * As I stated here, your edit was disingenuous. This article is about Traditional African religions. The emphasis is on the word "religions". You cannot use a Eurocentric POV to tarnish all African religious faiths. Be specific which religious faith you are referring to and add sources substantiating your claim with reference to weight. Better, create Criticism of Traditional African religions and get it off your system. And no! You won't be watching me. I will be watching you after the disingenuous edit you made at Traditional African religions. Senegambianamestudy (talk) 00:53, 18 July 2018 (UTC)
 * There's nothing "disingenuous" about the edit - belief in witchcraft is a major part of African religious beliefs (both for believers in traditional and imported religions), as I'm sure you are perfectly well aware. Now the article is completely silent on this. It is clear from various of your edits you are pushing a POV, removing references to the imported Abrahamic religions and to less attractive aspects of TAR. I'm sure you have heard of WP:N - please observe it. Johnbod (talk) 01:02, 18 July 2018 (UTC)
 * You still failed to mention the specific religion(s) in question with respect to sources and weight. What you did was made a blanket Eurocentric POV without regard for the scope of this article. There are many TARs which do not even practice "witchcraft" and do not even condone it in their religious traditions. However, you wouldn't know that nor would you care because you are only interested in pushing a Eurocentric POV. Further, what you may call "witchcraft" other scholars refer to as "traditional healers" and not all traditional healers are the same, even within a traditional African religion. Anyway I'm getting bored with this foolishness, so please refrain from posting on my talk page. If you have anything of value, put it in the relevant talk pages. I'm far to busy fixing and improving articles than wasting anymore of my time with such foolishness. Senegambianamestudy (talk) 01:19, 18 July 2018 (UTC)

Languages
Hello, Senegambianamestudy,

Would you please consider adding any relevant Babel boxes to your userpage? It's often difficult for editors to find people who speak any African languages, and Babel boxes are one of the ways we use to find people with language skills. Even people who can read and write at a beginning level are difficult. For example, there are more than five million people who speak Wolof, but I can only find three editors who speak it (all at a beginning level) who have edited the English Wikipedia during the last year. There aren't even that many Wolof speakers at the Wolof language Wikipedia right now.

Thanks for considering it. (Please ping me if you need help; I'm not watching this page.) WhatamIdoing (talk) 19:11, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Hello WhatamIdoing, I'm terribly sorry but I can't speak Wolof at all. I only learned a handful of phrases when I visited Senegal but I'm not fluent in it. I just love Senegambian history and culture and studied it but can't speak any of the local languages. I think the extent of my Wolof is na nga def (how are you?) and mang fe (I'm okay). Lol. It's slightly better than that but I wouldn't even call it level 1. I'm surprised that you can't find Wolof speakers at Wolof Wiki. That's a bit strange! Senegambianamestudy (talk) 21:47, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
 * There are very few active users there. It's a similar case for several African-language Wikipedias.  BTW, if you're interested in checking out the situation, then you can put   into the search box on any Wikipedia.  (I usually find the Wikipedia by going to the article here about the language that interests me, scrolling to the very end, and finding the box with a link to it.)  The English name always works for Special: pages.  w:wo:Special:ActiveUsers is the current list at the Wolof Wikipedia.  Nobody in that list with a "blue link" username speaks Wolof, and at least one of the red-linked editors doesn't either.  I assume that the Wikipedias for most languages in the Senegambian area are in the same shape.
 * Once you know about editing, it's possible to do some useful things at a wiki whose language you don't speak. I've added photos of people (because the caption can be just the person's name), and some kinds of obvious vandalism are still obvious.  I wish we could find more people who could actually write in those languages.  Even simple sentences would improve things.  WhatamIdoing (talk) 22:40, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
 * That's pretty weird. It looks like the names on your link are bots. I just did a search and there are definitely Wolof speakers there such as this person named Ibou. However it looks like he hasn't edited for nearly a year going by his contribution history. I also remembered reading somewhere long time ago that User:Tamsier is fluent in Wolof, Serer and English and possibly a bit of French. Sadly s/he has retired and was indefinitely blocked some years ago on English Wiki. I left them a message on their talk page few weeks ago literally begging them to appeal the block and come back as we have lost many editors of their caliber on Project Africa but they have not responded. I even left them a message on their French Wiki talk page asking whether they have any more Senegambian historic images but they have not responded. Following your lead, I did a search on Wolof Wiki and found that s/he used to be an editor there but have not edited since 2016. We keep losing valuable editors here. Sorry. Senegambianamestudy (talk) 23:56, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Yeah, it's unfortunate. And it's not just Wolof, of course; it's most of the smaller languages all over the globe.  I've helped out a little at the Haitian Creole Wikipedia for a couple of years now.  I like it:  the small wikis are so quiet that you can literally do almost whatever you want, because there's almost no one there to complain, and if you can write two sentences about any given article, then whoever is there is likely to just cheer you on instead of giving you a big hassle over whether your sources are ideal or your formatting is perfect.  I'm not much help, of course, since I can't read or write Haitian Creole, or even French.  But at least it's possible to occasionally do something useful, because there's machine translation, which is okay for identifying the subject of an article or for checking whether something's obvious vandalism.  That approach will work on maybe six or seven dozen languages these days.  But for the other 200 Wikipedias – well, we really need people who speak those languages.  I hope we can find more of them.  WhatamIdoing (talk) 06:06, 12 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes, very unfortunate. I will try and help with my limited Wolof. Senegambianamestudy (talk) 10:26, 12 August 2018 (UTC)
 * I've added Babel Wolof level 1 to my user page. That's the extent of my Wolof unfortunately. Anything to help. Senegambianamestudy (talk) 12:47, 12 August 2018 (UTC)
 * . I've added Wolof. I'm fluent in it. Yes, I used to edit at Wiki Wolof but haven't been there for a long time. I'll add babels there as well. I do speak some of the other Senegambian languages so if you need help let me know. Tamsier (talk) 04:49, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks! And thanks for also putting it on your global userpage at Meta.  That will automatically show up at all the wikis where you don't have a userpage yet.  WhatamIdoing (talk) 18:46, 23 August 2018 (UTC)

Tamsier
I'm not sure that you understand the problems. Besides the personal attacks, Tamsier's strong religious beliefs led him to edit in a way that violated WP:NPOV, ie presenting them as fact. There were also serious problems with the way he used sources. I spent a lot of time (and some money on books) to fix some of the problems. Doug Weller talk 15:50, 12 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Do you think the community could have been a little bit more supportive/encouraging? I can only imagine how one must feel being blocked and then come to the talk pages of articles they have given a lot to and find some not so flattering or generous comments about them. It must be damaging to the soul even if not meant as a personal attack against them. People interpret things differently and I just think we can all be a little bit nicer to one another. Despite your differences, I think you can at least recognize the huge amount of work they have done on African topics - which is under represented, even old editors who have had disagreements with them in the past acknowledge that. I think we can all support each other. Yes, even I have some work to do. Sometimes I can be a bit of a potty mouth and rather impatient but I'm working on that. I think it is a major concern if we keep losing Black/African editors here. I believe their retirement was triggered by frustration and a believe that they had nowhere to turn. I think I've just found their email address at their French talk page . With my limited Wolof, I think it is a temp email address for Wiki only and not their real email. I'll send them an email later and hope they really consider appealing this block. Besides, its been many years now since their block and hope whatever they were going through is a thing of the past. People do change. The least we can do is to give them a chance. Senegambianamestudy (talk) 16:31, 12 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Or maybe invite Tamsier to skip the English Wikipedia, and write at one of the other Wikipedias. A block here has no effect at any other wiki, including https://wo.wikipedia.org (there is no Wikipedia for Serer).  We need better African content here, but we need just about everything at the smaller Wikipedias.  WhatamIdoing (talk) 23:30, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
 * I've sent them an email. I'm still waiting for their reply. Senegambianamestudy (talk) 15:32, 15 August 2018 (UTC)


 * WhatamIdoing's suggestion seems excellent. It was very frustrating to me to see so much needed content being added but having such problematic content. It was a bit like the Creationist editors who can't cope with our policies. We have Young Earth Creationists who do a good job, and then we have some who simply don't (as exemplified on my talk page today. Doug Weller  talk 16:12, 19 August 2018 (UTC)

Tags at Black supremacy
Those tags aren't very useful without an accompanying current explanation of the problems. It's hard to fix something if you don't know what the complaint is. I'd appreciate it if you'd address each one in its own section or remove them. Thanks. Doug Weller talk 16:11, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
 * The thing is I've already addressed the issues on the talk page months ago . See also . Senegambianamestudy (talk) 09:43, 9 September 2018 (UTC)

Keep Fighting -- You are not alone
I read a comment you made, please never let anyone tell you, you are the odd one, and making stuff up. I left Wikipedia more than 8 years ago, most of us African usually do. I watched all of my contributions destroyed by a gang of racist white editors. Systematically neutralizing everything to the applaud of other White editors. Obviously it me who was wrong. This is what White pressure does to us. All of our edits are apparently race motivated yet none of theirs are. All of our sources are Not Reliable Sources. I just gave up in the end to advance African history elsewhere as opposed to this Eurocentric trash bin. Most of us do give up. I hope you do not. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 169.0.4.160 (talk) 08:22, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

AfroCine: The Months of African Cinema Continues….
Greetings!

Thank you very much for signing up to participate in the Months of African Cinema global contest/edit-a-thon, and thank you for your contributions so far.

It is already the middle of the contest and a lot have been achieved already! We have been able to get over 200 articles created in over seven (7) languages! The figures soars to up to a thousand, if Wikidata entries are included. Furthermore, there have been about 5 in-person gatherings of Wikipedians in different countries across the world to create articles about African(a) cinema!

We are very excited about what has been achieved so far, but your contributions are still needed to further exceed all expectations! Let’s create more articles before the end of this contest, which is this November!!!


 * Article suggestions can be found here. You can also add to this list.
 * Some notable reliable sources for African cinema can be found here. Again, this list needs expansion.
 * Interested in Wikidata translation? check out the Occupation Drive, which is being led by Wiki Loves Women, in support of the contest and the project!
 * Please remember to list articles you have created or improved in the Article Achievements section of the contest page, so that they can be easily tracked.

Thank you once again for being part of this global event!

Kind regards.--Jamie Tubers (talk) 22:50, 10 November 2018 (UTC)

Pan-Africanism portal
Hi Sen, hope you well. You have not been active for a while hope all is well? I have not forgotten about creating Portal:Pan-Africanism and translating Traditional African religions to French Wiki.

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Gambian pan-Africanists


A tag has been placed on Category:Gambian pan-Africanists requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.

Personal attack at All-African People's Revolutionary Party
I did not cause, request, or endorse the block of anyone. The actions of that editor were, in the judgement of the admin, worthy of a block, but I played no role in this, did not request it, and have no opinion on the block. If you have an issue, take it up with the admin. Do not make false claims or patently false personal attacks, like accusing people of vandalism for removing claims that are false or requesting citations for unsubstantiated claims. Toa Nidhiki05 02:38, 11 August 2019 (UTC)
 * You were the one who caused it with your poor Afd nomination, as well as insulting the editor. I don't know why you weren't blocked for your behaviour. Afds can get rather heated. If you cannot stand the heat get out of the kitchen. If you gonna bring any article to Afd without WP:BEFORE or not disclosing your real reason for bringing it in your nomination rationale be ready to be challenged. Taking out your anger at the article because the community voted against your nomination is vandalism and if this continues I will report you myself. You have just lost us one of our most hardworking and dedicated editor at the Africa Wiki project. Talk about false claims! You have been making false claims since that Afd.

Senegalese names
It has been hard for me to decide which names to use for Senegalese people on Wikipedia. You know Senegalese names can be written in so many different ways, including French spellings, Wolof spellings, and English-like spellings. We can include titles like Cheikh, Sheikh, Seex, Serigne, and lots of others for our religious leaders. The current Wikipedia guidelines don't help much because they look like they're written for American and British names. Since your username is Senegambianamestudy, I think you might be able to help? DjembeDrums (talk) 15:08, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
 * going by Tamsier's previous examples, I would say use the English spelling on English Wiki, and French spelling on French Wiki. On English Wiki s/he would also put the French spelling in brackets. If it is a person's name/or article about a person, then use the actual spelling as per sources. Senegambianamestudy (talk) 05:15, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

Edit summaries
Hello, I'm Dekimasu. I noticed that you recently made an edit to African divination in which your edit summary did not appear to describe the change you made.

If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Dekimasu よ! 10:31, 2 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Okay. Thanks. Me bad! Nothing controversial because I only added content with reliable sources and left a note on the talk page asking how we can improve the lead. Also, because the e key on my keyboard is not working unless I copy and paste an e from somewhere else, I simply scrolled down on the list of my previous edit summaries and selvcted the most appropriate one (lazily, I admit) rather than writing a full one. I however take your point, and thanks for notifying my. Senegambianamestudy (talk)

Black History Month
Black History Month passed without much fanfare on Wikipedia this year. Did they ever put more attention on it in the past? DjembeDrums (talk) 11:53, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * You expect too much from this place. I just come, edit and adde sources in the articles I'm interested in and go. Although lately I have been forcing myself to create articles since Tamsier and other African/Black editors left. I never really appreciated how hard it is until recently, because I never used to create articles. Only copy edit, add content and refs here and there. Now they've all gone, a very few of us are left. Article creation is time consuming. I hate it, and being disabled doesn't make it easy but someone has to do it. Don't expect too much here. Just come, work on the articles you are interested in and go, and keep yourself away from the White Wiki Clique and understand how they work. Senegambianamestudy (talk) 12:32, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Wow you seem jaded. Has Wikipedia cyberbullying been making you depressed? I haven't run into these issues yet maybe because I'm just quietly editing specialty articles that don't get much attention. Take it easy brother. Hope you stay because we need contributors like you.

 * I'm sorry but that person is not a nice person. What I said there is true. He has lost us a lot on Wiki Project Africa, now I have to work even harder joggling things with my disability. I do not like what he did. Further, his poor closure of the 2018 AFD of Black supremacy was obviously based on head count rather than following argument based on policy. He is incompetent. That's my honest opinion of that man. I will never forgive him for the blow it has inflected on Wiki Project Africa as well which is the least under represented. The very few (and active) of us who work in that project knows how difficult it is already. A lot of people have had enough and are leaving. Who wants to deal with this? I also wanted him to know that, if I put that article back to AFD not to close it again, as he has shown us time and time again that he is incompetent when it comes to closures. He goes by hand count rather than by policy. Senegambianamestudy (talk) 13:27, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
