Assessment comment

{{Substituted comment|length=295|lastedit=20080929185422|comment=The article mixes up the term "mbira" for "marimba" when quoting Chi. It is the marimba [another instrument on which she is proficient] that is a member of the xylophone family. Mbira is a member of the lamellaphone family. I think the writer made a mistake. I don't know how to edit it, though.}}

Daughters

The biography says that "The couple [Maraire and Andy Brown] left behind two daughters, Chengeto and Chiedza" but also "The last surviving member of Maraire's family with Andy Brown is her daughter, Chengeto, although Andy Brown had other children, the step-siblings of Maraire's daughters".

If their father is Andy Brown, they're half-siblings, not step-siblings. If the father isn't Andy Brown, maybe we should rephrase that the couple left behind the daughters?

I've tried to look at the sources but haven't found clarity. /Julle (talk) 15:46, 21 April 2025 (UTC)
