UGH! This article is completely confusing. It goes from talking about their origin in Cuba, and then abruptly shifts to it talking about Africa and the Middle East... makes no sense! ß 17:55, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
Versions in other languages say they are og African origin. The French version has material not covered here. Get-back-world-respect 01:40, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
Wasn't this a fad during the late 1950s and early 1960s? I seem to recall it was but I can't find any references on the Internet about it. - Rolypolyman 22:13, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
I've removed this section completely. No other instrument page seems to have it, and it was becoming rather unencyclopedic. Jellocube27 10:15, 6 June 2007 (UTC) Duh you got owned O.W.N.E.D. owned
this article need to tell us some thing about those meatle poles attached to the outer rim of the head it tells you NOTHING about it. i hve no idea what they are or what they do. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.2.249.167 ( talk) 06:26, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

The main page of this article needs an extra paragraph on the bridge connecting the left drum to the right drum. Doesn't the nature of the bridge have an effect on the sound? Are some bridges made of metal while other bridges are made of wood?
Am I using the right term for the thing that connects one drum to the other? It's called a bridge, isn't it? 216.99.201.142 ( talk) 04:29, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
The picture caption reads Sexteto Habanero in 1925. First from the left is Agustín Gutiérrez, the bongosero. His tuning lamp is on the floor (circled). There is no explanation of what a "tuning lamp" is and I can't find one anywhere else. Can anyone shine a light on this? Tigerboy1966 07:50, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
Since 9 September, User:Ficzere21 has been consitently deleting chunks of the article, removing sources, altering sourced statements so they disagree with sources, adding non-encyclopedic opinions, breaking the flow of the lead, adding numerous unsourced statements and even copy-pasting a paragraph straight from Britannica. I am opening a discussion here so he can specify what exactly is going on and whether he intends to persist in his disruption. Pinging @ Binksternet:, in case he has something to add.

I only want more info to this article nothing else. Ficzere21 ( talk) 01:33, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
