Send them an email. Introduce yourself. Indicate you are with PWMGH and mention we are trying to raise the standard of Azonto article on Wikiipedia since it is the first in the search engine ranks and it will be also good for promoting Ghanaian culture -- music and dance. (Add that Gangnam Style article is very well put together and we want the same for Azonto.) Then mention we will need to feature snippets of some of their videos with people doing the dance because we believe they do "real Azonto" That's it.
Ask them to send all response to teamwikigh@gmail.com but use your own email to send the initial one.
Forward a draft of the email to the mailing list. We can all have a look then you hit the send button. Regards,Sandister Tei___________________________________________________

I am happy that at least some of you showed up for the editing
training.
Please start editing real articles now but ALWAYS use "show
preview" first
before saving a page. For more complex stuff, use your sandbox.
New users please note that from today the 24th to February 24th
you
should have at least a 100 edits on Wikipedia. Ghanaian
articles need our
help and Planning Wikimedia Ghana should be at the forefront of
this.
I am also happy to announce that Sarkodie's management is
willing to
collaborate on our Azonto article. I am contacting
Gasmilla/llian next.
Without the permission of these people, the article won't have
the
necessary multimedia content. The elections 2012 article
suffered greatly
because we couldn't even get free images of our own
presidential candidates
to add to the text.
Any comments and contributions are welcome.
Wikimedia outreach in Ghana is ongoing. Anyone in Accra/Tema to
join in
the trainings?
