Talk:State of the Nation (Ghana)

Timeline of speeches
Does anybody knows where we can get a transcription of the speeches? It would be nice to have them summarized. I believe political researchers might be interested in something like that. —Masssly ✉  17:46, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
 * i have been trying to gather pdfs or documents of the full texts on the speeches to enable us elaborate the timeline of the speeches Flixtey (talk) 13:08, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

 * I saw a transcript in the Friday's edition of the Daily Graphic maybe for starters we could use that.--Rberchie (talk) 09:34, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
 * How do you intend to use that, take a picture of it? i wish we gather links with the full text in pdf formats already uploaded on the internet and then create external link sources to them Flixtey (talk) 13:30, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Flixtey are there "links with the full text in pdf" on the internet? I Haven't checked yet because I'm out of data. If there are that would be great we'll simply use those links as references. Otherwise like Rberchie found out, images/scans can be taken, uploaded on Wikisource and transcribed later (if only that's legal). I don't remember where but John Carter once mentioned he could provide Ghanaian newspapers dating back in time. —Masssly ✉  14:01, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
 * you may find changes on the article and restructuring to clearly communicate the message.
 * I think a transcript of this year's address can be found here. At least some others can be found here. I don't myself know any copyright issues involved in these particular addresses, but if they are in the public domain, as I think they may well be, it would certainly be possible to add them to wikisource if good original files can be found to use for the transcription.

 * Thank you John those links are very useful and we would use them. Being the only place that actually hosts those documents I think it's still a good idea if we get them on wiki source. It's not unusual that you'd go there one day and not find it anymore. Anyone here familiar with wiki source? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Masssly (talk • contribs) 19:21, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
