You removed the template that asks for editors to add more references, despite the fact that this article has only one reference. Please don't do that unless the article is well-referenced, which this one clearly isn't. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dougweller (talk • contribs) 05:35, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

You removed material from this article without explanation. Given the content, I assume you removed it simply because you didn't like it, which isn't an acceptable reason. Please be more careful in the future. Dougweller (talk) 05:37, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
- See my reply at my talk page. And I've added it to Jesus and it is already at Moses. Don't forget to sign your articles with 4 tildes (~)Dougweller (talk) 05:51, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
Al-Akhdam
The small minority you mentioned does not exist in Yemen even if they do there are no statistics. As mater of fact the majority of them resides in neighboring Oman. I provided a source specigically mentions that there are 5% of the population of Ethiopian/east African origin — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kendite (talk • contribs) 01:39, 20 August 2012 (UTC)
Another thing a tribesman does not need to live in a rural area. 85% of the population is of a tribal origin and play a major rule in shaping the political map of the country. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kendite (talk • contribs) 10:46, 20 August 2012 (UTC)
- Actually, your link was on Al-Akhdam, not Ethiopians. It also does not indicate that 5% of Yemen's population is of Ethiopian origin. What it does say, among other things, is that "the popular notion that the Akhdam are descendants of Ethiopian oppressors appears to be a myth, said Hamud al-Awdi, a professor of sociology at Sana University." The fact is, Al-Akhdam are thought to be either descendants of Nilotic Sudanese who arrived with the Abyssinian army when it occupied Yemen (hence, why they are sometimes mislabeled "Ethiopian"), or of Veddoid/Negrito origin. Veddoid seems most likely here based on their short stature, Negrito-like physical appearance, and especially their high incidence of the sickle cell trait (which Abyssinians don't have). This is already explained on the Akhdam article. Regards, Middayexpress (talk) 14:56, 20 August 2012 (UTC)
