1. René Pélissier: Editor Ndandulalibingi who included Pélissier has no access to this book, has never consulted it. The book was suggested to him and he has since used it on a number of occasions. The editor who suggested the book said "With regard to the Mbunda resistance to Portuguese occupation, I have just found a few pages in the volumous book on the Portuguese military campaigns in Angola, written by the French historian René Pélissier.", nothing more, as one can see
here, but Ndandulalibingi keeps attributing all kinds of claims to this book without any knowledge of its content. To make it worse, somehow he got the recommendation of the book so wrong that he managed to combine two books into one each time he quotes Pélissier (
cited 9 times, 6 times combining the two books into one). To that, he claims that "The references were introduced by Aflis (talk). He might have read the books, as you can see
here. I also find problematic that an editor can suggest to another that it is okay to use a source willy-nilly without haing consulted it: "when citing Pélissier, you may want to specify his section "La révolte des Bunda",
same reference as above. The other editor did just that.
2. Robert Papstein: For the sake of keeping things together, please consult discussion about Papstein
here.
