message: This is looking very good. You should add to the introduction a one paragraph summary of your section on political, economic influence. Also, I think you need a discussion under the economic part about the Mouride's role in the informal economy which is huge today.
Also, doesn't Beck talk about the fact that Mouride leaders used to give Ndigels to vote for someone but don't really do it anymore because they didn't want to sacrifice religious authority when people started to wonder about their political advice?
If you want to get your article recognized for its quality, you might want to add the other parts of the article if you have time.

message: Hi everyone,
I made various changes to this page as part of a university assignment and some additional personal interest and knowledge:
-Added some detail to the colonial history section
-Fixed, edited, and added to the political influence section. Here I also removed some paragraphs which, as far as I could tell, were misunderstandings of the provided sources. I also added some page numbers for the existing sources where I came across them during my own research. Where possible I retained the previously written article, but given how extensively it draws from one (albeit seminal) source, a further rewrite may be a worthwhile idea. Same for the other types of influence, which I did not look at in detail beyond fixing some sources. 
-Added a section on the relationship with Salafist-inspired Reform movements. I wasn't entirely sure where to put this to maintain the structure so I added it under beliefs but another position may fit better. This includes some discussion of how the reform movement and the mourides have taken from one-another, which I hope is somewhat relevant to the article. 
-Expanded the section on dahiras to elaborate on their role and history somewhat. More could be added here, but I did not have the time to do so. 
-Cleaned up and edited existing citations. These were a bit of a mess and in order to write my own additions this had to be done. Where I could find the page number I also added it to all of them. 
-Fixed a few typos throughout the article. 
I believe that sums up the changes. If you have any questions or concerns about my changes and the process behind them please let me know, I'll gladly discuss them.  Olopi (talk) 22:25, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
