I think this is a serious. I never knew such things really happened. I'm annoyed at the fact that sometimes people just tag articles for deletion when it's still in development stages. I hope Wikipedia listens to Dennis Brown. Masssly when will you or Enock or Sandister become administrators. That should help us in the Ghana chapter. We can't just be shoved around like that. Please! Give me a break
Enock, I will edit for sure.
