Talk:M'zab

History

When I look back into old versions of it, for example 22:21, 7 August 2006 it appears as a much better version than the one I found. I started with partially correcting the horrible English and layout. The old version should be restored or at least merged with the new version, as it had several facts simply removed in the new one.Norrefeldt 13:23, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Picture

Isn't that picture ... you know ... fake ? I mean whatever that building is, it's NOT 3500 years old. It's not even 100 years old. Look at the curves, look at everything. Such a building wouldn't have remained standing in a mild climate with a bit of range for 10 years, and will certainly not withstand the regular sandblasts it gets in the desert for any length of time.

Even if you assume the wood has been replaced. Wikipedia's credibility is already somewhat ... tarnished. This is not the way to go about improving it.

That is definitely not Ghardaia... it's some sort of monument or artistic expression of Ghardaia. The picture should be removed and replaced with an authentic image. 188.223.87.184 (talk) 13:26, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

For example, here is a recent image of the real Ghardaia: [[1]] 188.223.87.184 (talk) 13:33, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Valley?

I noticed that UNESCO's page specifies the name as "M'zab Valley" - if this article is intended to be about the World Heritage Site in particular then should we update the name so it is consistent with UNESCO's name? If it is not about the W.H.S., then perhaps we should separate out the information specific to the W.H.S. into a new page? AntarcticPenguin (talk) 05:04, 21 December 2017 (UTC)

Unicode

In the present version of the page (2023-09-11 10:15 UTC) there are two examples of unicode glyphs in the page that seem to have been there for a while but I am not sure of their correctness, can someone more knowledgeable than me double check?

"Wəd" here:

> along the Wəd Mzab collectively

and "Σezzaba" here:

> and Ibāḍī Σezzaba continue to dominate

Thanks.
