I am interested to see which other countries you will be including within Africa in order to show a wide variety of anthropologies in the region. Although your outline is thin, it is a great start to cover the region. Is language a barrier within research, sources, and potential audience in the region? Could language be a barrier for anthropologists in Africa to further contribute to this page? These are questions I am facing in my own research within Asia and just something to keep in mind.

Hello! The lead section that you already have on your article is a great start, but I would perhaps change the language in the first statement a little bit. "Colonized" is a word that has negative connotations, but could be less debatable than "dominated." While I do not disagree with Africa's history of exploitation through its colonization being a factor in the development of Anthropology in the country, it might be straying too far from neutral. The way that you have the structure of your article for the regions in Africa seems similar to how Maria and I are setting up our article for Asia. To ask your opinion because I have been struggling, myself, with something in my own writing for this project, how do you plan on portraying the countries by region but still individually/without generalizing? What factors will you focus on that will help differentiate? Overall, I think this is a good start, and I look forward to seeing how the article progresses!

Hey all, the draft looks great in many ways. I like its organization. The lead section of the article is clear and address the title. I would suggest adding the references since you already have a section for it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alsanefa (talkcontribs) 13:45, 14 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
