[Wikimedia-GH] ID's by ISO for regions change effected
by Nkansah Rexford 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

Based on the ISO namings for the regions in Ghana, I've made the changes on the Id column of the Ghana Cultural page to suite it. FYI Anything left on the page to work on? When are we submitting to the database? Thanks :-) Happy WikiCommonsian Rexford -- Nkansah Rexford N. +233 266 811 165 3D Ghana <http://3dghana.webs.com/> About Me <http://nkansahrexford.webs.com/>

The page on Wikicommons for the WikiLovesMonument 2012 for Ghana is under development. http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2012_in_Ghana I grabbed the wikilovesmonuments page of US and made some tweaks to suite Ghana. However, it requires much much more add-ins to ensure its really fitting for Ghana. The Wikiloves monuments event is just at the corner, so early completion of the page alongside the Ghana Cultural heritage page will really help http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghana%E2%80%99s_material_cultural_heritage :-) Happy WikiCommonsian Rexford -- Nkansah Rexford N. +233 266 811 165 3D Ghana <http://3dghana.webs.com/> About Me <http://nkansahrexford.webs.com/>

hi, multichill pointed to an official iso code for the ghana regions: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-2:GH should we change the numbering scheme and use these codes instead of the ones we use now? regards, rupert.
