Project idea

edit

What is the problem you're trying to solve?

edit

Not enough content from Ghana in terms of photos, audio and videos are found Wiki Commons. When an editor is working on an article or anything from Ghana and wants a media file which is Ghana related to support the article, a simple search for it on Wiki Commons sometimes proves futile not making article not so rich.Issues with copyright is another problem for an editor who maybe wants to edit a simple article.

What is your solution?

edit

Discover Ghana Project seeks to make a search for these files (photos/audio/videos) available for editors to be used freely when creating or editing an article concerning Ghana and also doing away with copyright issues.

Project goals

edit

This project will increase the number of media files from Ghana and it will help editors use it to make their work more meaningful.
