Sandister, for me notability locally is key as well. As you said about Theodosea Okoh.
Gasmilla I think is notable locally very well. I can say all these top guys in the music industry are well known. Nii can you defend me on this one?
Thanks

Sandi u miscontrued me with the social presence issue.It wasn't a blanket suggestion across board for all.It was in reference to people we cannot find so much resources about online.If you compare someone like say Sarkodie to Gasmilla on this basis you will appreciate what I am talking about.Tetteh Quarshie too doesn't have a facebook page or website but google his name and you will find tons of info Osibisa's page has less tha 10000 likes Dumelo has 200k but you and I know Osisbisa is more popular across the world than Dumelo My suggestion specific for Gasmilla it is just an observation and there maybe instances where we will get people even less notable in such a case what do we do?For the records I am not against a page for Gasmilla but itz just a clarion call I am sending

Theodosia Okoh has no Facebook page RB, but the media have reports on
her
and she has online presence that way. Wikipedia is really not
interested in
your social media presence.
Gasmilla is more prominent to a child running around somewhere in Jamestown than Michael Jackson will ever be. But the Westerners will
see MJ
differently. Notability is very subjective. Let's tread carefully so
we
don't defeat the purpose of our group.
Oral I am equally interested in articles that exist and those that
are yet
to be created. Let's allow Gasmilla onto the wiki and let other more experienced Wikipedians decide if he should be there or not.
We shouldn't wait for him to scoop a local award or BET before we
scurry
to create one for him.
Anyone else?
Anyone else?

Sandister, for me notability locally is key as well. As you said
about
Theodosea Okoh.
Gasmilla I think is notable locally very well. I can say all these
top
guys
in the music industry are well known. Nii can you defend me on this one?

just went through you all have said,,maybe am missing out on something, but what exactly does wiki stand for? What do we seek to project? Gasmilla maybe prominent to a kid running around in jamestown, but what impact does he have on that kid? Azonto dance and what else? In the long run azonto without a certificate wont guarantee food on the kid's table in the long run so lets reconsider this whole gasmilla case
