Tigray/Tigrinya

Please discuss before making any major changes or moves like that. There's a reason why the article is where it is. There are too many different names that Tigrés/Tigrinyas can be called, and since the article is about people on both side of the border (their differences aren't great enough to warrant separate articles, though it probably warrants a heading on the Tigray people page explaining any differences) the neutral "Tigray people" term has been chosen since there is no widespread English use either.

Eritrea

Why are you getting so angry? It was me who proposed that we take out Amharic, but it seems (from the capitalization in your edit summary), that you're removing it to somehow spite me. Either way, I don't think it should be on the list, but I do think that it should be mentioned that much (most?) of the educated class speaks Amharic as a second language, and perhaps some near Om Hajer and the border with Gonder speak it as a first language. I'll go find a source.

Btw, I've recently created an Ethiopian wikiproject, if you'd like to join and help out. Would it be okay if I put a link for it on the Eritrean WikiProject page too, in case anyone there would be interested in helping out? Anyway, I hope to see you contribute! (I'll put a simple signature since the colors irritate you - I'll assume it's just the brightness and not b/c it's the Ethiopian tri-color) — Yom | Talk 04:42, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nationalities is problem in English, and in the era of the nation-state. Can you use "groups"? Do you explain it all later in the text?

If "groups" is no good, at the very least, put "nationalities" in quotes; but I'm nor sure they'll like that.

WikiProject Eritrea

Thank you for the link and help, but I really don't see myself making any long, focused, or coordinated articles on Wikipedia. I just flip through the site from time to time trying to change things that I don't think are correct, mostly with things that concern Eritrea. Thanks. Mesfin 09:40, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Featured Article

Sorry. I was reading the articles too fast during the process of nominations. I will do a better job next time. But in your article, I didn't like how the whole article was organized and the orders of sections. Individual articles were very good though. --GoOdCoNtEnT 21:38, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
