Problems

[edit]

Article needs salvaging from vandalism and from poor referencing.FeatherPluma (talk) 01:31, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Pronunciation?

[edit]

I followed a link here from an IPA page that mentioned the 'c' in Mr. Ncube's name as an example of a click phoneme, like the disapproving "tsk-tsk" sound.

I don't know enough of the IPA stuff to try to write "n[tsk]ube" but I do know that had I seen this page without coming from that IPA page, I would have thought this name was pronounced like "'n KOO bay" or something.

I would give it a whack, except A. I don't know how his name is really said, and B. even if I did, I'd be afraid of making a complete hash of that crazy-ass space-alien-heiroglyphic-looking IPA stuff. 209.6.67.174 (talk) 21:30, 8 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bias

[edit]

As impressive as this guys' career may be, the article is most clearly biased. As 'brave' as the man is, praising his bravery and personal qualities on an 'encyclopedia' is clearly a misuse. I urge somebody with knowledge of Zimbabwean politics, (and without affiliation) ammend this article, if not, at least delete it.
