 * Keep. I've done some wiki work and given it a cat. SilkTork 18:22, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep as above. For great justice. 19:47, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. It does need sources but I know something of West Africa and I think this material is verifiable and is not OR. --Bduke 23:40, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Several aspects of ancient West Africa (read Africa) such as traditional occupations may have no abundance of sources. As a native West African I can authenticate some of the material and will continually edit it. His Royal Highness
 * Keep, but rewrite to make less essay-like and cite sources. There are enough archaeological and historical publications to source and improve this article. &mdash; mark &#9998; 06:56, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
