Tell the government to update our coat of arms
editWe must give it to the official Canadian coat of arms graphic designer. Almost all other Africans updated their coat of arms! So must we!
West and Central
editI think there are very few to none African-origin editors and researchers on Wikipedia who fully grasp the narrative of the continent and simply go by definitions at face value. All this to say, for the case of Cameroon being solely identified as Central Africa is not entirely true as the country shares cultural and historical links to both west and central regions of Africa. However, as a member state of ECCAS, it is economically and geopolitically recognized as Central Africa. Cameroonians identify themselves as both depending on which regions of the country they come from Teeyawiki (talk) 12:39, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
- @Teeyawiki: The ethnicity or nationality of Wikipedia editors is not relevant, as original research is not permitted on Wikipedia. Do you have any reliable sources that support the edits you are making? — Manticore 05:16, 1 September 2023 (UTC)
Why is Eritrea apart of Ethiopia on the map?
editOn the map showing Cameroon's location, Eritrea's for some reason just grouped with Ethiopia. I think this could be a mistake Cactusjuice65 (talk) 19:40, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
