Material you included in the above article appears to have been copied from the copyright book A Linguistic Geography of Africa edited by Bernd Heine, Derek Nurse, page 65. Copying text directly from a source is a copyright violation. I have added quotation marks to the passage as an alternative to removing it. All prose must be written in your own words. There's more information about copyrights and how it applies to Wikipedia at Wikipedia:FAQ/Copyright. Copyright law and its application are complex matters, and you should not edit any more until you have taken the time to read and understand our copyright policy.

Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution

[edit]

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Massawa, Eritrea to Massaua under Italian rule (your addition has since been removed). While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. If you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 14:54, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry. I have recreated the stub with all data & phrases written only by me, as you request. I have used as a model the Mogadishu under Italian rule. Regards, --Wrightip (talk) 15:13, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
