POV Watch[edit]
Isn't the impression that the "Fulani War" was a pure Fulani-Hausa ethnic conflict a POV?--iFaqeer 22:27, Sep 15, 2004 (UTC)
Thanks to SimonP for the edit making the clarification I was seeking. I think he deserves an award. This is a slightly political point of view, but in this day and age, when the "fundamentalist" right-wing of Islam co-opts people like him, it is very important to point out that the right way to start a Jihad is by a legitimate leader chosen and/or recognized by a community; not by individuals.
PS: in case you are wondering about the heading above, it is the exclamation a Hausa-Fulani might utter where an English-speaking Westerner would go "Jesus Christ!" ("Manu" is a Hausa shortform/nickname for "Usman(u)") —iFaqeer | Talk to me! 20:16, Oct 1, 2004 (UTC)
Staring cleanup[edit]
Saw that this had a "wikify" tag, so I fixed the internal refs, and collected others. Re-wrote the introduction, but the body still needs a re-write for style and the adition/ streamlining of content.T L Miles (talk) 19:11, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Why are you deleting the picture?[edit]
The picture satisfied all Wikipedia guidelines. Why do you continue the disruptive editing ? Nigerianhistorian (talk) 03:08, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- That AI generated picture has no connection to Usman dan Fodio. How is it relevant to the article? Check MOS:LEADIMAGE. BlueSahelian (talk) 03:39, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Kindly check the image description and read Wikipedia's guidelines on AI-generated images!. Stop taking hasty decisions. Nigerianhistorian (talk) 03:47, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- The image has no relevance to the article though. It is an AI generated picture of a man wearing clothing from the middle east riding a horse in an environment that looks nothing like Sokoto. Can you please send me the page number where Bello gave his description of Usman in Infaq al-Maysur? BlueSahelian (talk) 04:03, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- I am still waiting for that page number... BlueSahelian (talk) 15:36, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
