Why is African Rumba being redirected to Soukous? These are two different genres.
I completely agree. Soukous and Congolese Rumba have very different rhythm patterns. Maybe it is just because no one has bothered. I'm planning to separate the two. If anyone is against it please discuss... Andrarias ( talk) 22:24, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
Is soukous distinct from the "congo" music played in Latin America? -- Smack ( talk) 01:57, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
Soukous should be more popular.--

First, let me say this is a very informative article, and I like it. However, when reading it, some questions and doubts came to mind. I think answering them would make this article even better.

But it's redundant. See how it's repeated in the second paragraph? I'll take it out in a few days. DBlomgren 02:33, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
Image:Franco5.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

The image Image:Zaiko poster.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

The article is virtually entirely unreferenced, and for that reason I'm going to have to delist it. Wizardman 15:41, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
