What in the holy hell is this shit?!?!? Oh well. Deleted. </gallery> -->]]]]

Accra Riots Should be mentioned on this page - and can someone expand please. As a key event in the beginning of decolonisation a case can be made for a separate page. Jackiespeel 22:42, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Prior to Ashanti

Why is there barely any mention of Ghana's history prior to the arrival of the Ashanti? Was it largely uninhabited or what? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.4.122.254 (talk • contribs) 01:42, 18 April 2007

By no means. See http://timelines.ws/countries/GHANA.HTML and http://www.niica.on.ca/Ghana/History.aspx Cheers, Pete Tillman (talk) 06:26, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Colonial History

Who wrote this article? The richest part of Ghanaian history has been left out. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alcosgrove (talk • contribs) 17:03, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wikify

Apart from the overall length, there is a lot of detail in the introduction which should be in the appropriate lower section (or even in Gold Coast (British Colony)!!). And the introduction is not fully in chronological order. Hugo999 (talk) 22:24, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
