message: I have added some information in this section. I have problems finding any good sources on the period 1500-1800, wich deals with the formation of iron age kingdoms and immigration of different people. Can anyone help? --Screensaver 19:21, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Early history 

message: This section realy needs some development, it leavs out many vital facts. Ive noticed that the article on Kenneth Kaunda is very extensive, and gives a better image of Zambias history than this article. It might be a good starting point to develop this page. --Screensaver 19:21, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

message: :Image:Zambia Ind000.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

message: Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted.
Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia.
This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link.
If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting.
If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page.
If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta.
When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags.
The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true.
Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

message: Zambia experienced lot of stages from colonization to independence and here I am going to talk about The political history of Zambia.
First Northern Rhodesia was a big sphere of influence of the Britains officially preclaimed in 1888.
But after many years of suggested Mergers Northern Rhodesia, Southern Rhodesia and Nyasaland got merged into The British Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland.
At 1960 the prime minister, Harold Macmillan, announced the end of the African Colozination. In 1963 the federation was dissolved and Northern Rhodesia was formed to the today known Republic of Zambia on October 24 in 1964.
In 1968 Kaumba was re-elected as president. Then in 1972 all political parties were banned, except the UNIP (United National Independece Party). That means there was only one party to vote on and that is not democratic. 
In 1990 the one-party-system finally ended, but the food prices were going to be too expensive and because people had not enough food and 30 people died.
In 1993, the government-owned newspaper, The Times of Zambia, reported a story about a secret UNIP plan to take control of government by unconstitutional means, called the "Zero Option Plan". The plan included industrial unrest, promotion of violence and organisations of mass protests. UNIP did not deny the existence of such a plan, but underlined that it was not a part of their official policy, but the views of extremists within the party. The government responded by declaring state of emergency and putting 26 people into detention. Of these, seven, including Kenneth Kaunda's Wezin Kaunda were charged with offences against the security of the state. The rest were released. But now let us go to the year 2001. So, to the political part of course. The Elections. Prior to the elections in 2001, Chiluba tried to change the constitution to allow him to run for a third term. He was forced to step back on this point after protest from within the party as well as from the Zambian public. He attempted to alter the constitution to allow him to run for a third term in office in 2001, but stood down after huge public protests. His successor was Levy Patrick Mwanawasa. And then after 2008, in 2011 to 2014, Michael Sata was president, until he died on 28th October 2014, then Rupiah Banda, who lost the election in 2008 against Michal Sata, was the next president. The today´s president of Zambia is Hakainde Hichilema. 2003:C3:DF0D:1800:D38:AC99:30D7:9D83 (talk) 06:04, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
