Rashaida people

Hi Alfaji, please note that the population figures are already tagged as requiring attribution. However, we need a reliable source if we are going to correct these figures. Do have some source other than your personal knowledge? (Please see WP:COS.) Thank you. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 11:10, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

I would prefer that you address any concerns or ideas you have about an article on that article's talk page, e.g. Talk:Rashaida people. Wikipedia is a community effort and (unless you have some other explanation) I don't see any advantage in discussing this via email. Thanks. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 14:10, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
