thread_title: Merge Zanzibar Revolution

message: I have made some minor revisions concerning Zanzibar, largely in an effort to remove contentious and potentially misleading material.  References to the "Arab slave trade" can give the false impression that all of the region's slave-holders and slave-traders were Arabs.  (In deference to the article's original authors, however, I have retained the link to the contentious Wikipedia article on the "Arab slave trade.")  In the section on the revolution, I have removed the reference to the highly contentious film Africa Addio.  That film does not "document" the revolution in any substantive way, and although it contains a few minutes of valuable footage, it is hardly the most important source on the racial killings that occurred in January 1964.  To those who insist on the film's significance, I suggest adding it to the list of sources. Jizungu (talk) 19:27, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Minor revisions ''re'' Zanzibar 

message: Something is very wrong with this section. Check out what were the missing words. I suppose someone used triangle brackets instead of the square one and brouser have hidden it as it hides HTML tags. It's only my assumption, but nevertheless missed words should be inserted. Thanx in advance.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.130.18.37 (talk) 11:17, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Persian and Arab traders 

message: I wonder if any discussion of the devastating effect of Rinderpest on the population and economic history of Tanzania should be included?

thread_title:  Ground nuts 

message: The current text says that Nyerere called in British troops. There were rumours that this was not true and that the document was signed by Rashidi Kawawa, the Vice-President. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.97.194.200 (talk • contribs) 12:29, 8 August 2011
:Kawawa was actually Prime Minister in 1964. One version has it that Nyerere was in the American Embassy at one point. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.152.254.68 (talk • contribs) 14:35, 8 August 2011
::See www.jamiiforums.com. Nyerere and Kawawa are said to have spent part of the January of 1964 in a "safe place" and "seclusion".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.97.55.83 (talk) 09:34, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Anyone is welcome to improve the current text, using references to reliable sources. Any "rumours" would need to be backed up by references to reliable sources, and it would need to be clear why such rumours are notable (eg. they have recieved coverage/discussion in multiple reliable sources). An internet forum is unlikely to be considered a reliable source to use on Wikipedia.

replies: text: Similar remarks appeared in the "Daily Telegraph", but I cannot remember the exact day. The story in the same gave the exact wording of the invitation to intervene militarily.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.139.150.242 (talk) 11:11, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Current text 

message: I believe this section needs more information concerning Nyerere's policies on education and the use of English in secondary schools.  There is a lot of information missing from the attempts of Nyerere and CCM to help Tanzanian students compete in the World, and specifically in Western Education systems.

thread_title:  Recent History 

message: I want to add a section to this page about Women's History in Tanzania. There is barely any mention of women at all in this page and I think that there are a lot of opportunities for them to be involved in the history of Tanzania. I would include sections on laws related to women, legal rights, women in politics in Tanzania, women's health, women in the Tanzanian workplace, and Tanzanian women-focused organizations. I would also end with a section on famous Tanzanian women. I would add this section towards the end of the page, right before the "recent history" section.

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.
Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:
