Raphael makes a very salient point and I think we're at that place where individuals/ideas/places/events already have their web presence/representation thanks to the advent of social media (Facebook/Google+/LinkedIn/etc). One importance for wikiGH must thus be to get members more interested/involved in updating already existing pages of Ghana related contents on the wikis since there's a ton of them that newbies could practice on as a way of enhancing their skills and scoring points for meritocracy. I am always available to proof materials prior to posting or in meta stages whenever the opportunity allows me to, knowing my crazy schedules. That said, new and exciting articles are always welcomed so long as they're well written, not sensational and have a lot of credence to both local/international audience on Wikipedia/Wikimedia. You will hear from me every once in a while but I believe with thinktanks like Sandister, Nii, Rexford and Raphael among others, the future of wikiGH is bright and I foresee a chapter forming even before my next trip to Ghana. PS: Sandister if u make it to wikimania London, let the aporrr kronkron flooooww!
