Hitler approves - or does he?[edit]

"A traditional food plant in Africa, this little-known fruit has potential to improve nutrition, boost food security, foster rural development and support sustainable landcare" Good job trying to feed the blackies strychnine. Check the Strychnos genus please.--94.69.177.86 (talk) 16:21, 16 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What is wrong with you? They are edible and not poisonous, I've eaten them myself. 178.190.188.101 (talk) 20:32, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, what is wrong with you? There are several members of the Strychnos genus that are a source of poison, usually from only part of the plant - Strychnos nux-vomica and Strychnos toxifera spring to mind - but these, and many others are totally edible fruits - for example Strychnos spinosa, Strychnos cocculoides, Strychnos innocua and Strychnos madagascariensis. (https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s12571-017-0679-x#Abs1). They are genuinely a traditional food plant. Also, "blackies", really? Even when used sarcastically, best avoided entirely.

Language designation[edit]

"Eguni (sing)/Maguni (pl) (Namibia)" - Namibia has 24+ indigenous languages, as well as English, Afrikaans and German. This needs to be changed to "in Namibia" or the specific language inserted. My guess is "Eguni/maguni" is one of the Oshiwambo or Kavango languages/dialects. Same goes for "Fole (Guinea Bissau)" and "Kankoroba (Mali)". Banzeru (talk) 09:24, 14 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
