Hi all, I'm currently looking at going for a domain name this group can purchase and use it for any official communication plus use it for our websites in the near future. Currently, these two are the options I'm looking at, Wikimedia.org.gh Wikimedia.gh Which one do you recommend?

Yes. It is dear. Looking at the whole controversial nature of the term 'Wiki', being explicit in the name is important. That's what I think. rexford | google.com/+Nkansahrexford | sent from smartphone On Jun 23, 2014 5:23 AM, "TheAfricanDream Oral.Ofori" <oralofori(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Would it not be changed? Because I think it'll do us good to ensure consistency then. If we change it, it's for the good, and that'll be the best way, I think. Any ideas? On Mon, Jun 23, 2014 at 8:59 AM, Sandister Tei <sandistertei(a)gmail.com> wrote:

For consistency I go for wikimedia.org.gh And for the Facebook page there's a way out. Sandister we can merge Wikimedia Ghana with Planning Wikimedia Ghana. Let's talk off mailing list on this. Regards. - Enock On Mon, Jun 23, 2014 at 7:04 AM, Sandister Tei <sandistertei(a)gmail.com> wrote:

"wmgh.org has been acquired! For now it's being forwarded to this blog/info site for Planning Wikimedia Ghana. " Was the domain name to use settled on as per the thread below? I personally wouldn't like to have aname(a)wmgh.org as an email address. I believe there are existing convention among the Wikimedia community and as long as they work, why shouldn't we follow? wmgh wasn't even mentioned as a probable option, so why has it been registered? Well, I'm not having my name appended to that domain. That's me though! On Jun 25, 2014 4:44 PM, "Nii Abbey Mensah" <niiabbey(a)gmail.com> wrote:
