I formatted it for you. Everything you write seems to show up in the code boxes. Whenever I edit what you write, there's always a space or two before your text (i.e. " Blah blah blah"), which seems to be what's causing the problem (if I remove it, there are no boxes). If you add the spaces intentionally, then stop doing so if you don't want the boxes (which are very annoying since they extend off the page). Otherwise, it's probably a problem with your browser. Try maybe posting your replies and then immediately editing them to remove the space if you can (that is, if they actually show up to you when you edit).
Hey, my Ethiopian brotha, I REALLY REALLY appreciate your input into the Ancient Egyptian debate. You know why? Because YOUR people actually have a connection to Ancient Egypt, unlike most Afrocentrists, who are almost always West African descended. You know maybe Alek Wek or Jon Doe Beja should have gone to the 1981 UNESCO conference instead of Chiek Anta Diop, eh? Because hey, as far as genetics, archaelogy, and tradition (Land of Punt) goes, all roads lead to Addis Ababa.(laughs to himself as he looks at the saying parody) Get back to me. Peace.
I appreciate your concern over the Controversy over racial characteristics of Ancient Egyptians article, but I need to ask you to please be civil. There are people who are working hard to make that article of an acceptable quality, and harsh attacks is counterproductive to that. If you're knowledgable on the subject, that article (which, as you've seen, is undergoing a major rewrite) could use another expert. But please make your contributions civil and respectful. Thanks. - Che Nuevara: Join the Revolution 09:33, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
I mean that compared to sumer, akkad, ebla, asshur, elam, hattusa, et. al., etc., Egypt has more indiginous african traits. Obviously it will be so, since it is geographically african. However, it is not purely african by any stretch of the imagination, and egyptologists of high credibility will state clearly that the pharaonic monarchy adapted some particularly sumerian and elamite traits. Redford in particular has a good deal on that in his "Egypt, Caanan, and Israel in ancient times." Now, as to causing problems, I am actually attempting to broker some sort of peace by expanding the scope of the article away from the american notions of whiteness-blackness. I will not, however, compromise factual accuracy to keep peace. Thanatosimii 19:17, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
