Hi - I saw that you'd requested a review. I looked over the draft, however I'm unsure as to what the intent is here. There is already an article on samba that is fairly extensive, so I'm not sure if this is meant to be used to expand the existing article or replace it.

If it's meant to replace it I would have to ask that you not do this, as the current version of the article is more comprehensive. If it's meant to expand the current article that's different, however you must still make sure that the additions are not already covered in the existing article. For example, the article already has an etymology section that covers more and while pagode isn't mentioned in it's own section, it is mentioned in the article and also has its own article at Pagode.

My recommendations would be to see what needs to be expanded in the existing article and use your sourcing to correct or expand this information. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:26, 3 December 2018 (UTC)
