according to what i've heard the amharas and the sidamas have historically not gotten along, though i'm far from an expert on this subject, so i don't feel confortable adding anything to this article about this yet.

An anonymous user added a large amount of text from various articles at http://www.sidamaconcern.com. For future reference, running a Google search on the text in question did not result in links to that website.

People lets be neutral for the sake of public information. There is university in sidama zone (debub university)and I personaly know a lot of female graduates. Sidama people wasn't that oppresed during feudal regim. Lets not reflect and copy paste political reflection. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.214.205.62 (talk • contribs) 12:16, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sources

It is a positive thing that an anon editor added references for a number of statements, but furnishing only the stub of a Harvard citation does not help very much -- are "S. Y. Hameso, Trevor Trueman, Temesgen M. Erena 1997" & "P. Bruno Maccani 1989" books, articles, or even more of an ephemeral medium??? -- llywrch 04:25, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
