Hello guys,
Following the Gye Nyame discussion. Enock can handle the situation. And it is indeed "Except God". About individual articles, I think it's quite not priority as symbols and the stories behind them can be captured as sections in one article.
Things that still need work are the Azonto and Ghana article. They also need protection. The Ghana article is still unprotected at the best level. Who has taken the initiative to contact an administrator?
Also the community needs to get down into the details of Wikipedia editing. Start learning about templates, bots that edit for you while you sleep. Bots that suggest pages for you to edit, tools that help you be more active on talk pages.
I noticed Enock thanks people for edits. Thanking people for edits is an edit in itself. It shows community participation and yes, it makes you more familiar with the wiki. This is just an example of new things you should be trying.
Do you know how to check your edits? Which are on Wikipedia? The talk pages? Do you know what the history pages symbols mean?
Until I am able to find time to put our beginning of year meeting into minutes and share what we agreed to do starting February, try and occupy yourself with a little bit of learning which will improve your editing speed and style.

Sandister,
Bots, well said.
Ghana and Azonto submitted for protection few ago but no actions yet.
Correction, not all "thank you" are edits actually. Say thanking someone as indicated in the image below is not. [image: Inline image 1] But typing it on the talk page or giving a Barnstarhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Barnstarsis edit in talk page.
Thanks.

Enock thanks for your addition.
To all, kindly learn thanking people on talk pages with wiki text method. You engage better and it gives you the opportunity to earn some confidence boosting edits but most importantly, it gives you practice outside sandboxes.
It was helpful when I first joined Wikipedia, and I discovered it after Rex sent me a cookie there.
Our activity on talkpages is not too good.

I will recommend we go in for legitimate edits by contributing to articles instead of thanking people because we want out edit count to increase.
Just to give a few tips here to make your editing on wikipedia enjoying and find stuffs to edit as well.
1) Using the suggest bot: it suggests articles you might be interested in for you to edit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:SuggestBot
2) VisualEditor: it allows you to edit wikipedia like WordPress without seeing the wiki code. Click on preferences, select beta, enable visual editor, and save.
Just a few tips there.
