Even though there is no total population of Oromo in USA, the largest Oromo community outside Africa found there. I wanted to put the known number of Oromo community in [https://www.minnpost.com/community-sketchbook/2016/09/growing-oromo-community-struggles-visibility-minnesota Minnesota]. Is it possible to add population of Oromo of minnesota state in infobox under Regions with significant Population?

== Malik Ambar source ==

{{Ping|MfactDr}} Hello thanks for the invitation, you added a source https://indianexpress.com/article/research/malik-ambar-aurangabad-mughals-jahangir-akbar-shivaji-6397143/, hoewever the source is contradictory and seems generally unreliable, it's speculative saying at one hand ''believed to be Oromo'' and on the other is from ''Habshi''.

@[[User:Socialwave597|Socialwave597]] You have been continuously deleting and editing much content on this page without giving explanation. In some cases, you are even removing factual content such as the mention of [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Oromo_people&diff=next&oldid=1190806410 Oromo's being mentioned in the 1400's]. Why did you delete that for instance? Please explain the deletion of that and in the future, please continue to explain why you are removing or editing content in the editing place designated for explaining why you are editing content. As I notice a lot of debateable content that you edited and/or removed. [[User:LeenchaOromia|LeenchaOromia]] ([[User talk:LeenchaOromia|talk]]) 01:22, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

"Somaliland" is the traditional rival of the Oromo.

::It seems you have forgotten, but the diff I just linked shows that you removed it. It looks like you did that because it was already mentioned in the history section like you said. But this is exactly why you need to explain why you removed content in the designated edit summary otherwise it is considered a violation of [[WP:UCR]]

::The talk page is not the place to ask questions and explain why you made the edits you made. That is the purpose of the edit summary. I am just suggesting you make use of that in the future [[User:LeenchaOromia|LeenchaOromia]] ([[User talk:LeenchaOromia|talk]]) 22:02, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

== "An Arsi Oromo attending an Irreechaa celebration" ==

The "Gaada", "Calendar", "Oromumma", "Social Stratification" where temporarily put in a "Culture" topic. This was done because they were under the "Oromo Dishes" topic. If anyone has a better topic to put those things on, feel free to edit. --[[User:Rory Kamau de Alencar Lourinho|Rory Kamau de Alencar Lourinho]] ([[User talk:Rory Kamau de Alencar Lourinho|talk]]) 12:47, 24 June 2022 (UTC) <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/2804:1054:3015:ECC0:AC51:C0AF:BA1F:D898|2804:1054:3015:ECC0:AC51:C0AF:BA1F:D898]] ([[User talk:2804:1054:3015:ECC0:AC51:C0AF:BA1F:D898#top|talk]]) </small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

While the bead crown worn by the woman depicted in the photo by user Abrasax123 resembles other availible photos of Oromo bead headwear, the term used to describe it, "Qarma crown," can be found nowhere else on the English speaking internet. Her clothing does not resemble other pictures of Oromo attire availible on wikipedia and elsewhere.

== Mistake on Oromo population ==

More importantly, I am almost certain that the light skinned woman in the picture is not Arsi/Oromo.

# It says the total Oromo population is 60 million and the citation links to webstie that was written in 1993 and states the population of oromo is 30 million out of the 60 million population of Ethiopia. So one the website is highly irrelavant in this year and it says 30 million not 60 million.

# It says the population of Oromo is 55 million in Ethiopia and cites an article whose author claims that the population of oromo is estimated to be 55 million in EAST AFRICA, not ETHIOPIA specifically. The author also doesnt indicate where he has gotten this number from and none of the sources he cited goes further from 2005 but the wiki says the 55 million estimate is from 2021

# The same article itself under demographics contradicts the population itself later on by claiming the population of oromo is 37 million and cites a source [17]

This image should probably get deleted, but I'll leave that to a more experienced editor as I'm not aware of the policy around that. [[Special:Contributions/142.112.183.63|142.112.183.63]] ([[User talk:142.112.183.63|talk]]) 05:12, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
