message: The majority of the current version of the article was added in November 2008 by an anonymous contributor. It appears that they were copied from a Bahamian government PDF download on the official bahamas.gov.bs site. I have removed the text that matches the PDF. — Saxifrage ✎ 17:40, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

message: The supposed Scots origin of the term as meaning "junk enough" sounds dubious. Firstly, what is that supposed to mean? "Enough junk"? "Too much junk"? "Junk enough" seems a pretty odd way to render it. Scots for "enough" is "eneuch" (pronounced en-yuch) and "enoo" meaningless. Mutt Lunker (talk) 22:03, 28 April 2012 (UTC)

message: Dear Wikipedia,
It was not mentioned in your page that the Jankanoo "Junkunu"  Dance is also a culture dance for the Garifuna people who currently reside in the countries of; Saint Vincent & the Grenadines, Dominica, Honduras, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Belize and the United States. In the Garifuna language the word Jankanoo means; "Wanaragua". They dance this dance during Christmas. New Years Day, the 6th of January and at their cultural shows. One of the history of this dance was that there was a Slave Trader by the name of John Canoe who visited the coast of West Africa to get slaves and a sending off ceremony was held for him before the people left their country. The mask that is used for this dance is that of the White Man with his blue eyes. Wellington C.

replies: text: The John Canoe appears to be a dance as well: "Prince Harry was soon dancing energetically with the local women and working up a sweat with the John Canoe - a Garifuna dance with African influences."  -- Jreferee (talk) 04:49, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
