The text of the article seems to be identical to that on German language WP. Only in German it is well readable, whereas the English version seems to have come into existence by using a rather simple translation programme, which operates on the basis of word-by-word translations or "best guesses", hence the very poor style and limited understandability of this version.129.143.4.65 19:48, 6 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Yes, the translation was poor, but I've improved it and added the sources from the German article. Rigadoun (talk) 19:06, 1 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

RE: TITLE I find it curious that the page title is "James Aggrey" whereas he is widely known in his home country, Ghana, as Kweygir Aggrey. It is true that his Christian name by baptism was James, but like many Christian Africans, his indigenous name (given by his parents) is the one most used.

I don't have enough skill with Wikipedia to change a title (nor should I if others don't agree), but I think the current title is one of convenience to non-Africans who are more familiar with European names so ignore the local preference.65.210.45.81 (talk) 19:20, 13 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
