Information icon Hi! I noticed you added content to Kehinde without providing a reliable source. To ensure that content is accurate, it would be preferable if you could add a citation to a source which confirms this information. If you do not know how to do so, the image on the right should help you in this matter.

Good evening. Thank you for your observation. I am a Yorùbá woman, and I do not need to cite anyone’s work. I speak, read, write, teach ,the language and to crown it all I am Ìdòwú, that is the child born after twins. Táíwò or Táyé and Kẹ́hìndé (Twins) Ìdòwú (child M or F) born after twins. Àlàbá child born after Ìdòwú. Ìdògbé, child born after Àlàbá, Ìdòha, child born after Ìdògbé.

Thank you. Idanide (talk) 02:49, 25 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

See the accepted guidelines on the requirement for inclusion - content must be published in a reliable source. This is to ensure that readers interested in the matter can verify it, and also to ensure all information is accurate. Thanks, RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 03:07, 25 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately sir, I do not know what or whose work to site. I am 62 years old and have understood and spoken the language from the time I could understand my parents. I can assure you that there is no where you will take my additions/corrections to, that it will not stand the scrutiny! I write the language with its original accents. That’s a feat most Yorùbá people can’t even do! If because I am unable to site a work my contributions will not be acceptable, so be it. What I KNOW, I know! Pity to deprive users on account of this. Thank you. Idanide (talk) 03:14, 25 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
