The external link labelled 'Visual Cookbook of African Foods' appears commercial. Is that acceptable? 86.154.145.163 (talk) 19:48, 17 November 2007 (UTC) jan[reply]

Title of pictures[edit]

"Shelled" and 'Unshelled' are confusing terms. Many readers will consider "unshelled" to mean "without shell", whereas others, including the contributing editor of the photo titles, use it to mean "with shell on". Please find a non-confusing term to use in the photo titles. 124.169.208.45 (talk) 04:44, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The egusi is common in the southern part of Nigeria not south eastern[edit]

One of the authors had deliberately mentioned that the egusi is common in the “south eastern” part of the country. That should be replaced with “southern part” of the country is the article will be fair and free from back and forth edit. 2601:280:5F80:4070:307F:D4E4:B247:7D40 (talk) 17:09, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello!

I have seen that due to the recent numerous changes that the page has been locked- an ethnic war on Twitter (Now X) has caused this. The origins of Egusi soup are of Igbo origin and prior to the numerous changes it was acknowledged to be of Igbo origin in this article. I asked that this is politely changed and locked so that it ca no longer be changed. This change is essential, as Igbo people have been subject to degradation and discrimination- an article supporting the origins of the soup is important as I it is an essential part of their culture. I am requesting for the usage part of the article which outlines the origins of the soup to be changed . Afrodiaspora 013 (talk) 21:44, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{Edit semi-protected}} template. Tollens (talk) 22:28, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Egusi is a Yoruba name and all sources including dictionaries from the 19th century states so. The Yorubas in benin and Togo also eat Egusi and call it Egusi. Egusi has never been Igbo, it has always been a Yoruba name used for the dish eaten across ethnicities in Nigeria. Researcherofgreatness (talk) 23:59, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
