- Khoisan research
- A map of the actual situation would be cool, as well as a map of their distribution in early colonial times (similar to the one in Güldemann & Vossen 2000) - look here, but they are all in Russian.
- If you like some of them I'll try to find time to translate it.Koryakov Yuri 13:41, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
- Some linguistic features (comparative, showing the wild divergency of the Khoisan languages) — more than the celebrated clicks.
- I started a section about the Khoisan language diversity today. It could use much more fleshing out. Msd1996 (talk) 00:48, 11 June 2017 (UTC)
- Khoisan language articles on Wikipedia in general need to follow Ethnologue less closely; rather, they should be based on solid published sources. The naming of Ethnologue, for one, is by no means clear, nor consistent, nor widely used (see Treis 1998 for a nice overview).
- Instead of just having a general bibliography, go through and cite individual statements according to Wikipedia's citation guidelines.
- There are many need citation tags in the intro that I added. Fixing these is urgent because they are in such a dominant spot on the page.
- I recently removed the external links because they had expired. Someone should add some new ones. Msd1996 (talk) 00:48, 11 June 2017 (UTC)
- Much of the information in the intro section is only in there. I think the intro section could be rewritten to hit only major points, and the minor points could be moved elsewhere in the article.
