A fact from Slavery in Somalia appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 14 April 2012 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that between 1800 and 1890, some 25,000 to 50,000 slaves were captured in present-day Tanzania, Mozambique, and Malawi and forced to work on plantations in Somalia?

So? What useful information does this add to the article? This information is practically worthless aside from the second sentence which would need to be sourced. 92.236.211.53 (talk) 20:37, 17 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
"According to Francisco Álvares, Imam Mahfuz attacked the Christian Abyssinians when they were physically weak during Lent and was able to carry off no less than 19,000 Abyssinians to which he immediately sold off to his friends in Arabia." Can you give me a source for this or perhaps quote what "Richard Pankhurst" wrote? The one attached to this phrase is not accessible and I would like to confirm it.
