Sheekhaal
Hello. I just wanted to explain my reversion of your edits at Sheekhaal. The article indicates that there is no clear agreement on clan and sub-clan structures, but lists the structures as given by reputable sources. I checked the references listed (the sources the lists were taken from), and the sources do include the clans you removed from the list. If you can provide a more up-to-date reference supporting the deletions from the list, please do provide that reference. Otherwise, it would be inappropriate for the article to claim its lists match certain references and then change the lists from what the references provide. If you have any questions, please feel free to comment me on my talk page. Thank you. 152.16.16.75 (talk) 10:12, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Please do not delete references, as you did at Sheekhaal. If you have more accurate, up-to-date references supporting your deletions, then please provide them.  Please do not, however, delete reliable sources without replacing them with more up-to-date references.  Thank you.  152.16.16.75 (talk) 10:32, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Sheekhaal, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This is particularly important when adding or changing any facts or figures and helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. The added information has been previously disputed, and needs to be worked out on the talk page. Gyrofrog (talk) 20:41, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

Please refrain from making test edits in Wikipedia pages, such as those you made to Sheekhaal, even if you intend to fix them later. Your edits did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. ''You added a reference in such a way that it interefered with the article's formatting. I'm unable to determine if or how this reference supports, the article as it's in Somali. Please see WP:NONENG.'' Gyrofrog (talk) 17:53, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Did you mean that you want to become an admin at the Somali Wikipedia? I am only an admin on English Wikipedia, I am not familiar with the process at Somali Wikipedia. You might try asking one of their admins (sysops); here is a list of them: http://so.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:ListUsers&group=sysop Hope this helps, -- Gyrofrog  (talk) 21:21, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
