Bantu peoples

When you edited the Bantu peoples article, you added a link to Congo, which is a disambiguation page rather than an article. If you know from the source material whether it's referring to the Republic of the Congo or the Democratic Republic of the Congo, could you please edit your link to point to the appropriate page? Most common usage referring to the country simply as "Congo" is about Republic of the Congo, not the DRC, but I didn't want to assume that in this case since you're probably more familiar with the topic.

Bantu peoples pt.2

Hello. Your edits on the Bantu peoples article are rather strange. You've replaced a photo of a Shona witch doctor with the explanation that he is sporting "unnecessary distracting objects", yet the replacement photo depicts another Shona witch doctor dressed in a very similar fashion. There are other issues, especially the lack of adequate physical representation of what most Bantus actually look like. They don't look like those Herero women, nor like the Afro-Arab Swahili woman you added a while before that. If the Herero women are to be included, it should be pointed out that many Herero are believed to have Cushitic influences - see this paper for general Cushitic influences in Southern Africa. I have appended a description to that effect to the image. Also, I believe you have surpassed three reverts, so it's better if we work together at this point.
