Goals

edit

Did you meet your goals? Are you happy with how the project went?

The actual goal of this project is to recruit new Editors in the course of the edit-a-thon series, increase the potentials of existing editors skills, and add or improve content in the existing ones, that would enhance profiling of young Nigerians artistes in the entertainment industry.

The project was established in good course, however lots of individuals got involved in the project, but what they edited were not considered because they are perceived not to meet wikipedia set goals.
