I will be removing the bulk of the politics section as it is Original Research. Some references such as those to waaqism in Rauso are completely absent from the source whereas other such as those proclaiming a supposed Jabarta or Ximan civilization aren't given legitimate reference. No specific book of Al Maqrizi is given for these claims. Most of the other claims are not specificlly stated in the cited works Somaliaficionado (talk) 04:55, 8 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Do not remove cited information for example Kirwan, Laurence (2002). Studies on the History of Late Antique and Christian Nubia. Ashgate Variorum. p. 42. ISBN 978-0-86078-893-5.148.252.146.97 (talk) 14:10, 8 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Are you sure @coastalmerch @philantro man and @ynilsa aren't yours? Also I've looked through these sources they dont mention what is claimed. The source fr Waaqism being practiced in Rauso doesnt mention Rauso at all for instance. The source for the "Harli civilization" doesnt mention Rauso either. The sources for the Jabarta are completely illligetimate. They don't even give a specfic book of Al Maqrizi Somaliaficionado (talk) 14:43, 8 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
No I’m not those accounts. The source for Waaqism being practiced by Cushitic peoples is cited: Ahmed, Akbar S. (2013-10-16). Islam in Tribal Societies: From the Atlas to the Indus. Routledge. pp. 127–128. ISBN 978-1-134-56527-6.
The sources for Harli and Jabarta are cited aswell in multiple sources. Maqrizi mentions all the states in the Horn of Africa and their history:
al-Dīn, Muḥammad Kamāl al-Dīn ʻIzz (1990). المقريزي مؤرخا (in Arabic). ʻĀlam al-Kutub. pp. 83–86.
But does it say Waaqism was practiced in Rauso? If it doesnt than this is original research. There is no book of Al Maqrizi which mentions ximan or Jabarta nor does this book mention it Somaliaficionado (talk) 15:46, 8 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
It was a civilisation. There were states with cities and a government. That’s a civilisation right there. Harli is clearly sourced as one in the article. Do not remove cited information 148.252.146.97 (talk) 16:10, 8 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Nowhere does it say anything about succession. It literally says Harla existed “concurrently” in the Nugaal valley. Do you know what the word “concurrently” means? 148.252.146.97 (talk) 16:17, 8 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
