If Jimmy Wales and the editors listening in on the talk are interested in our press release, they will say something for it or against it.
I have looked at the release. I have put written my version lol. Someone look at it for comments. Enock your input is needed since you have followed the story on the talk page.
PLANNING WIKIMEDIA GHANA REACTS TO GOVERNMENT’s STATEMENT ABOUT WIKIPEDIA
This is in response to a recent publication by citifmonline.comhttp://www.citifmonline.com/index.php?id=1.1657562on January 10th, 2014 about the Government of Ghana struggling to edit information on the Wikipedia page for Ghana.
Planning Wikimedia Ghana http://planningwikimediaghana.blogspot.com/as a group has been working for almost 3 years to encourage the use and contribution of Ghanaian content to Wikipedia, and also how best to handle inadequate information about topics.
Wikipedia is a wiki, meaning content is user generated thus vulnerable to information changes which could be truthful or untruthful, biased or objective.
To maintain order on the wiki then, editors do their best to retain objective, encyclopaedic and sourced information. If these requirements are met, then they can stay on the wiki. The information on Ghana's article about corruption has been adequately sourced currently.
As Wikipedians, we are looking into the matter. Currently, Wikipedia has put the article under some protection from unconfirmed users.
In response to: " Mahama Ayariga, says government is “figuring out permanent arrangements” that can be put in place to monitor the website to ensure that whatever information people put out there are accurate."
We would like to point out again that as WIkipedia is a wiki and "permanent arrangements" can not be made to keep information static. But Planning Wikimedia Ghana will organise an editing session to clean up the article. We will also choose a member of our community to watch the article for a untruthful and biased information.

Goodnight.
