Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Wakanda has been reverted. Your edit here to Wakanda was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links in references which are discouraged per our reliable sources guideline. The reference(s) you added or changed (https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Wakanda, https://web.archive.org/web/20190209122840/https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Wakanda) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page.

Copying licensed material requires attribution
Hi. I see in a recent addition to Wakanda you included material from a webpage that is available under a compatible Creative Commons Licence. That's okay, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. I've added the attribution for this particular instance. Please make sure that you follow this licensing requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material in the future. — Diannaa (talk) 13:05, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

Ventilators
Since that claim is rather extraordinary, it needs to be discussed at talk:Ventilator first, please. Guy (help! - typo?) 14:06, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

JzG, greetings and hoping all is well. The claim about the origin of ventilator is not absurd. It is not my own self-published work. It was sourced and not just any source but a reliable one. The ventilator then was not advanced as today's. Do not have it in mind that the Ancient Egyptian ventilator is exactly the same as the modern. Maybe if it had been the likes of Greece, Rome or middle ages, the post will still be around not deleted as well. Lol, I haven't poked my finger at anyone; just a joke. Sorry for the troubles tho. Kwesi Yema (talk) 14:16, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , no, but the ventilators of that document have nothing obvious to do with the ventilators of the article subject. The document talks about wind catchers, for example. Successful mechanical ventilators for medical use (the article's topic) were not invented until the 20th Century. Guy (help! - typo?) 14:21, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

Alright then. We can just let it go. Kwesi Yema (talk) 14:24, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Guy, I strongly apologize. This was a very obvious mistake on my part. As a new Wikipedia user 3 years ago, I was so careless and absurd at times. Apologies for the troubles caused back then.Kwesi Yema (talk) 23:51, 12 October 2023 (UTC)
 * I applaud you for admitting an error, that is how Wikipedians are supposed to behave, and we don't always do it right :-) Guy (help! - typo?) 10:30, 15 October 2023 (UTC)

Missing cites in Military of ancient Nubia
The article cites "Ephʿal 2005" and "Mark 2009" but no such sources are listed in bibliography. Can you please add? Also, suggest installing a script to highlight such errors in the future. All you need to do is copy and paste importScript('User:Svick/HarvErrors.js'); // Backlink: User:Svick/HarvErrors.js to your common.js page. Thanks, Renata (talk) 01:31, 4 October 2020 (UTC)

Thanks Renata for pointing that out. I've fixed the issues with the bibliography but once again thanks for sharing the script. It is really helpful.(Kwesi Yema (talk) 13:43, 4 October 2020 (UTC))

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution (2nd request)
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from African military systems to 1800 into Fortification. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 13:30, 5 October 2020 (UTC)

Diannaa sorry I didn't know about attributing contributors. However, I didn't copy and paste. I actually wrote the whole thing under sources from African military systems. Does that mean that, if you use sources from a page for your work, are you supposed to attribute the page from which you got your source?(Kwesi Yema (talk) 14:20, 5 October 2020 (UTC))
 * I am confused. The material is identical to text found in our article African military systems to 1800. So I have to assume that you copied it from there. When you copy from one Wikipedia article to another, you have to give attribution, like I said above.— Diannaa (talk) 14:38, 5 October 2020 (UTC)

Yes that is true. I mostly copy and edit what I wrote myself. However, the question I asked was that, what if you saw a source in the form of a book like let's say book sources of the fortification section under the African military systems to 1800 and you re-wrote what the source provided in the African section of Fort but it wasn't copy and paste. However, your work looks very similar to the work of other authors because you all used one source, will I have to attribute the authors or can I just say article African military systems to 1800. Kwesi Yema (talk) 14:50, 5 October 2020 (UTC)

What I meant to say was "Main | African military systems etc. etc. " Kwesi Yema (talk) 14:52, 5 October 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Presidency of John Atta Mills


A tag has been placed on Presidency of John Atta Mills requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://emerituseducation.wordpress.com/2020/07/28/political-library-prof-mills-economic-era-date-friday-july-272020-time-33035pm-by-fiifi-annorson/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. — Amkgp 💬  03:37, 25 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I have removed speedy delete notice and requested for revdel — Amkgp 💬  03:55, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

User:Amkgp the source you shared rather copied the contents from the John Atta Mills page. I copied his policies and all of the policies are sourced by 3rd party sources such as aljazeera. After, I attributed that I copied from that page. I did not copy from the source you shared. You can check out the John Atta Mills page and see what I'm saying. Kwesi Yema (talk) 04:04, 25 November 2020 (UTC)
 * , Don't worry, the link is provided so that the admin can perform the necessary clean up. I have removed the delete notice and reviewed it. — Amkgp 💬  04:07, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

Amkgp Thank you very much. I'm sorry for any problem caused. Kwesi Yema (talk) 04:11, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

Ashanti Empire
Hello Kwesi, the quick answer to your question is is "Yes". Any book, magazine, newspaper that is publicly available in print or online should be OK. Good luck! Fsmatovu (talk) 14:26, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

Re:Help Please
Hello Kwesi Yema I hope I can help you out, Where exactly are you creating the articles? On wikipedia or on wikidata? Anyway you check this out https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Help:Description and i hope it helps out but give a feedback so I can know how best to offer some extra help. Cheers! --Ampimd (talk)

Ampimd, thanks for the response. All the pages are on Wikipedia. I'm experimenting this page, Presidency of John Mahama with meta sources from Presidency of Donald Trump. First of all, I now understand how to create a meta data description, however, is there a manual way to link the meta data to Wikipedia or it automatically takes care of that? Kwesi Yema (talk) 00:10, 29 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Kwesi Yema, Great for the little I know it can generate thats why the code is needed, what you need to do is go to wikidata (https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Main_Page) search for John Mahama's Wikidata there is the meta data code there and try and experiment surely that can lead to some good results --Ampimd (talk) 00:17, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

Ampimd, thank you very much. I was able to create the data as you can now see it on the page. However, it doesn't appear on the toolbar for some reason and although the number now appears in the wiki data code, there isn't any wikidata description in the Presidency of John Mahama info page. Kwesi Yema (talk) 01:52, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

Political systems of the Ashanti Empire
Article is live. You should compare the two to be sure then delete the one on your talk page. I never did find the move tool in the Android interface so I created it manually, and conceivably missed something. It’s throwing a reference error, for one thing. However it has already been reviewed and all they noticed was that it was uncategorized. It has a couple of categories now, could use a couple more. I will look into the language link if it does not populate via bot. This can probably be done through wiki data, but I remember doing it with an inter language link; possibly on my laptop not my phone though Elinruby (talk) 12:43, 29 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Elinruby, problem encountered. I did the inter language link, linking the Regieurung von Aschanti with the political systems. It worked on the English Wikipedia however, it did not work for the German simply because someone has linked the German article to a redirect in Ashanti Empire. That's very silly in my opinion because why will someone link a whole article to a redirect when it can be translated?? As a result, I don't know how to delete the redirect as it is not even found on the meta data list of wiki languages. I've tried so hard to the extent of mistakenly deleting the German wikidata and replacing it with the English wikidata instead. Story cut short, if we could delete that redirect in the Regieurung von Aschanti, we can properly link it with the English political systems article. For now, only the English article provides a link to the German and not back n forth. Kwesi Yema (talk) 17:58, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

Ok well. English is a start. I would take this problem to IRC but they only deal with en.wikipedia. I wonder if there is a German equivalent. Each wiki has its own procedures and rules. I gather your German is better than mine so maybe try this: if you are on the page you were redirected to, hit back on your browser. You may have to go back and forth a few times but it is possible to get to the actual page for the redirect. Alternately, on en-wiki the link to IRC is on the community portal page... Maybe the German has one also. Elinruby (talk) 18:55, 29 December 2020 (UTC)


 * OK I see it. It's a link not a redirect I think, set to go to the government section of Ashanti empire. Elinruby (talk) 19:02, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

Try https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Chat Elinruby (talk) 19:06, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

Thank you very much for your help. May God richly bless you. My German isn't good at all as I mostly depend on translators. At the moment both articles share the same wiki data ID meaning if a German wiki administrator sees it he might do something about it instead of totally deleting the link. However, let's hear what the IRC has to say. Eitherway, I also wanted to inform you on the porcupine image. It actually doesn't represent the Kotoko council, rather, it is the Emblem of His Majesty the King of Ashanti created by the first Ashanti king. Basically, all that is left with are more sources. Kwesi Yema (talk) 19:10, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

So it represents Ashanti as embodied in the king and therefore his council? I understand what you are saying about translators; my German is good enough to find that link, but definitely not up to explaining this problem in German. I suppose there is a chance someone may speak English in the chat room, but that is not a given. Elinruby (talk) 21:00, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

There may be a way to find help through Local Embassy oh the community portal. I believe the one at en.wiki is for people who don't speak English, but if you click around in there you may be able to find the German equivalent. Elinruby (talk) 21:08, 29 December 2020 (UTC)


 * With the emblem, after reading through the sources of the emblem of Ashanti king article, I found out it was the national emblem of the Empire still used today and served as the seal of the kingship in the past and today. We can leave it as it is. However, the translation is the issue. If the German equivalent is able to speak English then it will really help. If not then I'll have to resort to translating an English text into German. Kwesi Yema (talk) 21:16, 29 December 2020 (UTC)


 * https://www.jstor.org/citation/info/10.2307/179951 is the article I thought might be useful Elinruby (talk) 22:56, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Elinruby, unfortunately I don't have access to JSTOR thus, I can't read it. However, the source you shared (Ivor Wilks) forms part of the sources in the article even before it was translated, but it lacks the inline pages. Troubling enough is that the book is only found on JSTOR and not other reading places like Google books etc. Kwesi Yema (talk) 23:56, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Adinkra Nkyea
Hi Kwesi Yema, I have noticed your message about an issue you are facing about a user. I am looking into it, but keep calm, for now anytime he adds something you not well referenced or in line with the Wikipedia rules and regulations you can take it off or notify him and remove. He may be new and feel he is right so this would be the best chance to straighten him up. Thanks for reaching out. Ampimd (talk) 00:15, 30 August 2021 (UTC)

Ampimd, thank you very much sir.Kwesi Yema (talk) 00:25, 30 August 2021 (UTC)


 * I have gone through the source, the information there and what he is putting across is misleading. https://www.instagram.com/adinkrankyea/ Have a look at the bio information to the Adinkra Nkyea page on Instagram, it portrays exactly what he is doing. Anyway so yeah it means the whole Adinkra Nkyea is a new creation, its a new invention, it was perhaps not used in those days as has been stated in his statements or even on the so called encyclopedia. If its something new, he has a good chance of even possibly creating a page that's if it has gained its notability. But for him to misinform like he is doing at the moment, that is not right. He needs to get sources, possibly academic backings, secondary sources and all that, historic facts if not then even the creation would not be possible. What he is doing is more of a promotional thing and that can not be done on Wikipedia. Ampimd (talk) 00:43, 30 August 2021 (UTC)

That is true. Even the image he uploaded comes from his Instagram feeds. He submitted a draft earlier with the same source but the AFC admins shot it down saying his sources are unreliable. He really knows what he is doing. He's been informed by several administrators to follow the rules but he keeps playing around them. As you said, he's probably doing a promotional thing believing wikipedia is like a blog or social media platform.Kwesi Yema (talk) 00:55, 30 August 2021 (UTC)

Ashanti traditional buildings
You said there was a copyright infringement of a text but that was only the statement and not the entire article. I'm not totally sure what you meant, but that seems to underestimate the extent of the copyright violation, which was around 65%, mainly of this and this. As you know, acknowledging your sources doesn't mean you can copy them, so that doesn't help. What I will do is restore as a draft at Draft:Ashanti traditional buildings to give you a chance to sort it out. Please check for remaining violations with Earwig before moving it back to article space. The tool will advise you if the level of matches are acceptable. Jimfbleak - talk to me?  08:59, 9 February 2022 (UTC)


 * Uh, very poor advice. No, "the tool" will only indicate if levels are unacceptable (as they were in that page which should never have been undeleted, and where the remaining 35% was copied rom yet other sources), but the tool will "never" indicate if the level of matches is acceptable. I have asked for redeletion at the talk page of the admin and restored the CSD tag, as copyvios aren't allowed in draft space (or user space or anywhere else). Fram (talk) 09:31, 9 February 2022 (UTC)


 * For example, I now added a third source to the CSD tag: the copyvio tool says "violation unlikely" and then shows that the article contains a straight copy of multiple lines from the source. That is not an "unlikely violation", and certainly not a "level of matches" that is "acceptable", but is a pure copyright violation. Please ignore whatever Jimfbleak said above. Fram (talk) 09:35, 9 February 2022 (UTC)

Fram, I just begun editing the article to remove all the copyrighted statements but it was suddenly deleted again. Please exercise patience. The whole reason for the draft was to remove all the copied statements and rewrite them in my own words to fit wiki standards. Can I have a copy of the deleted draft to rework on it?(Kwesi Yema (talk) 09:49, 9 February 2022 (UTC))
 * Jimfbleak, the draft was suddenly deleted whiles I was working on it. I couldn't even change anything as a result. (Kwesi Yema (talk) 09:52, 9 February 2022 (UTC))
 * Sorry, I had to delete the draft as there were still copyright violations. See discussion at WP:XRV. The best course of action here is that I can email you the text of the draft so you can work on rewriting it in your own words outside of Wikipedia, and use that text to put up a non-plagiarised version. Alternatively, since the reason for deletion contains the URLs of the text that was copied, you should be able to find the original text there as well. User:Ritchie333/Plain and simple guide to copyvios has further information. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  09:58, 9 February 2022 (UTC)

Ritchie333, my G-mail is. I'll rewrite the article so that it fits wiki standards.(Kwesi Yema (talk) 10:08, 9 February 2022 (UTC))
 * Hi Ritchie333, unfortunately I haven't been able to receive the information over my Gmail. I've seen the notification on my wikipedia notification page but I can't interact with it as it does not open. Perhaps I doing this wrongly. ((Kwesi Yema (talk) 03:22, 12 February 2022 (UTC))

A Personal Appeal for Order and Neutrality
@Kwesi Yema This is a friendly message to emphasize the importance of upholding order and decorum as we collectively edit Wikipedia. Wikipedia's core principles and guidelines, such as neutrality, verifiability, and reliable sourcing, are the foundation upon which this platform thrives. These rules ensure that we deliver accurate and unbiased information to a diverse global audience.

It is crucial to remember that Wikipedia is built upon the commitment to providing knowledge to the world, irrespective of personal beliefs, political affiliations, ethnic backgrounds, or tribal associations. Our contributions should reflect this commitment to neutrality and inclusivity. When adding or editing content, we should always refer to Wikipedia's tags and categories, such as "NPOV" (Neutral Point of View), "CITE" (citation needed), and "RS" (reliable source). These not only guide our contributions but also help maintain the high standard of credibility Wikipedia is known for.

By adhering to these principles, we can ensure that Wikipedia continues to be a valuable and trusted source of information for people worldwide. Together, let's contribute to a more informed and enlightened global community by upholding these fundamental rules and values in our editing endeavors. Ihikky (talk) 17:08, 23 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Greetings. I have pointed out mistakes in your edits on Kingdom of Dagbon and Dagomba people, with good faith, but you keep reverting without providing substantial explanation. In Dagomba people for instance, [you call Dagbon a country]. However, the sources provided do not talk about the Dagomba statehood. At most, the journal references the Dagomba people as an ethnic group of Ghana with a traditional chieftaincy. Country is a vague word that could cause misinterpretation. As an editor, you must write what the sources say in your own words but you must also refrain from adding your own conclusions and straying from that of the source material. That is WP:SYNTH.


 * On the Kingdom of Dagbon article, you deleted sourced information without valid reason. Some of your edits like the military section were completely unsourced and very likely to be original research. You provided an article souce in this section although it is likely self-published because I cannot find its Journal codes or ISSN number. However, there was no page number making verification difficult. I provided a quotation needed tag so you can provide a page number and quotation to improve verification. Once again, [you reverted this without proper explanation. I am definitely imperfect but I do that is all within my power, to ensure my contributions and those of others conform with Wiki's guidelines. Ikkhy, do not be so defenisve about such corrections and avoid the distortive reverts without reasonable explanation in your summary or addressing the talk page.[[User:Kwesi Yema|Kwesi Yema]] (talk) 19:04, 23 October 2023 (UTC)
 * This was just a friendly note.
 * I did not claim Dagomba to be a state. We all know it is not. Please see Country: "A country may be a non-sovereign geographic region associated with certain distinct political, ethnic, or cultural characteristics (such as the Basque Country)." Country used on that page was, simply, a word choice. I knew you misunderstood that statement. I could have taken other routes to address your acts, but I choose this friendly approach.
 * Whenever you face challenges or need clarification, reach out to me for assistance. I am happy to guide you in your editorial journey. Ihikky (talk) 09:27, 29 October 2023 (UTC)
 * "I did not claim Dagomba to be a state. We all know it is not. Please see Country...Country used on that page was, simply, a word choice."
 * we do not cite wikipedia. You can use words of your choice but when it comes to terms and names we must stick to the most common ones used in sources per wiki common name. What I need from you is your utmost cooperation in improving the Wikipedia articles. I have addressed this on the Dagomba people talk page. Provide a quotation from the sources as to what you interpreted as "The Dagomba country is called Dagbon." Kwesi Yema (talk) 13:21, 29 October 2023 (UTC)

Removal of Controversial and Poorly Sourced Material
Dear @Kwesi Yema,

Greetings, and I hope you are well.

I am reaching out to inform you that I have taken the liberty of removing your assertion regarding Dagbon's membership within Ashanti. As you are well aware, such a claim is bold and highly contentious within historical and sociopolitical contexts. As per Wikipedia's policies on verifiability and neutrality, any such assertion requires extraordinary evidence to substantiate.

To maintain the integrity and credibility of the information presented on Wikipedia, it is imperative that claims of this nature are supported by robust evidence from reputable sources. In the absence of such evidence, inclusion of such claims can potentially mislead readers and perpetuate misinformation.

In light of the significant implications of the claim you have made, I kindly request that you provide verifiable and peer-reviewed references to support your assertion. This could include scholarly articles, reputed authors, or other reliable sources that have undergone rigorous scrutiny by experts in the field.

I trust that you understand the importance of adhering to Wikipedia's standards of accuracy and reliability. Should you have any further questions or concerns regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Thank you for your attention to this issue.

Sincerely Ihikky (talk) 07:23, 10 May 2024 (UTC)


 * I have already created a Request For Comment in the talk page. You have not proven or argued why the edit goes against verification or how the sources are unrealiable. Until consensus, is reached you cannot delete relibale sourced information just because you do not like it. Per RFC laws, refrain from deleting until consensus is reached.

 * @Kwesi Yema you can see that other editors do not support your explanation. So kindly desist from further vandalism until consensus is reached. You should not assume that people don't like what you post. You should also not make a claim because you want it to be true.
 * Kindly provide reliable and trustworthy references, and this will be brought to conclusion.
 * Best. Ihikky (talk) 19:30, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
