[edit] The layout of pictures

I noticed that the placement of the 2 main pictures was changed. I agree about the Wikipedia pictures layout but these 2 pictures resumes all article. I believe the original layout to be kept. Cheers and respect Svest 17:46, May 14, 2005 (UTC) Wiki me up™

[edit] The pictures are bad

A picture of Delacroix is the worst you can choose for this page. It is orientalism/colonialsm. (Read Edward Saïd.) Also the picture of the woman in "tradional clothing" is totally wrong. Pictures in a general introcuction like this should give a general impression of the average Moroccan and life as yoy can see it on the streets. The first two pictures are okayS710 19:41, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Djellaba

Someone deleted the Wikipedia article for Djellaba. Next, the link for djellaba here points to a woman's garment. Does some vandelistic admin have it in for male Moroccan style of dress? I would encourage you to review "Raiders of the Lost Ark," staring Harrison Ford. The Morrocan scenes are replete with men in djellabas, and djellabas are still worn in Morrocco by men regularly.

Please reinstate the djellaba article and fix the link, as it's the right thing to do. Ensure Wikipedia reflects reality, rather than personal bias. Thank you. Mugaliens 18:32, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

It was deleted because it was a copyvio. I unlinked it to Jilbab pending recreation. -- Szvest 18:46, 27 October 2006 (UTC) User:FayssalF/Sign

[edit] Berbers and Carthagians

The article says: Morocco hosted many people coming from both East (Berbers, Phoenicians,. This is not correct, The Berbers cannot be considered and easterns, and cannot be considered as "hosted people" like as the the other foreign peopeles. The Berbers are considered to be indegenous to Morocco. The Carthagians is also not correct, the Carthagians are not people. But a country. This country was inhabited by the Poenicians and Berbers.
