[edit] Criticism

I wish someone had dropped a note over at the WikiProject Ethiopia page about this article; I would have stepped in with some suggestions. One would have been to remove the obviously erroneous mention of Ras Mikael Sehul in this matter -- he died almost 160 years before this battle, & had no way to play a part! Another would have been to point you to Solomon Getamun, History of the City of Gondar (Africa World Press, 2005), which contains relevant information to this article. -- llywrch (talk) 01:18, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
