Cameroonian and proud, and will not tolerate incorrect information about MY COUNTRY.
- That's fine - I don't want there to be incorrect information about any country in our articles, and I thank you for wanting to improve them. However, the way you have been going about it has been disruptive. Discussion and consensus-forming aren't optional, they are the means by which we determine what our articles say - if you want to edit here, you have to abide by that. When this short block expires, engage with other editors on the talk page, discuss the sources with them, and try to convince them that your figures are correct. It's your country, but it's not your article. GirthSummit (blether) 10:54, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
I, as well as other Africans, are sick and tired of Westerners narrating who we are. We have our own sources and are more in-tune with the structure of our society. We do not need Western researchers who visit the our countries to tell us who we are. The CIA has been proven time and time again to not be 100 per cent reliable. This to say, the religious demographics in Cameroon is highly disputable and equivocal as many people might declare themselves to be Christians but are NOT practising Christians as they still adhere to traditional beliefs. It is the reason the Cameroon census declares nominal figures because in Cameroon, traditional beliefs are very much highly regarded in both rural and urban settlements. Just because the Cameroonian government is Christian, does not mean Christianity is wholesomely abided by the majority of Cameroonians. Whoever is editing the information for Cameroon needs to stop with his/her western caucasian agenda on religion in Cameroon. Traditional beliefs are highly practised in Cameroon and it is disrespectful to our culture to disregard this fact. Thank you.

This isn't about Westerners telling you about your country, it's about our fundamental methodology of summarising what reliable sources say. If you think there is a problem with a source, or that another source provides a different perspective, the article's talk page is the place to go to discuss with other contributors.
