Harari people

Magherbin, I don’t know if you are from Horn of Africa, but, the Harari ethnicity- unlike Somali and Afar -aren’t a homogeneous group. We know that Sultan Nur Mujahid was Somali, but it was him who eradicated ethnicity in Adal. By that, he unified all the people in Harar city as Muslims. Hararis- for wich I personally know -are obviously a mix of different peoples; Arabs, Turks, and locals.

We know that the English people began with the Anglo-Saxons, but we can’t say English are solely descendants of those Germanics, rather they have a Celtic blood. The same way, Hararis are mix with Harla at the core. KenadidBile7 (talk) 04:48, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

User:KenadidBile7, provide references for all statements made and we can add them in the articles. In your edit summary you claimed the two "imams" were Gadabursi yet there are sources that claim both as Harari. I want to the see the reference that claims they were Gadabursi, secondly even if it exists it doesnt give you the right to remove other claims. In your other edit you claim the Arab saint Umar was a Somali, this claim would be rejected by the Somali Sheekhal clan themselves. Provide a reliable source otherwise this discussion is pointless. Magherbin (talk) 05:25, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

I will, but for Imam Ahmed Gurey, can’t oral tradition be a source? KenadidBile7 (talk) 05:28, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

Sure, if the reliable source mentions the oral tradition, it would be fine. Regards. Magherbin (talk) 05:38, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

4th Yusuf bin Ahmad al-Kawneyn

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Edit warring at Ethiopian–Adal War

Hello Magherbin. You've been warned for edit warring per a complaint at the noticeboard. If you revert again on this page without getting a prior consensus for your change on the talk page you are risking a block. I'm also alerting you (below) to the new Horn of Africa discretionary sanctions. Let me know if you have any questions. EdJohnston (talk) 19:20, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

Ethiopian–Adal War is now covered by discretionary sanctions

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in the Horn of Africa (defined as including Ethiopia, Somalia, Eritrea, Djibouti, and adjoining areas if involved in related disputes). Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
