This article must adhere to the biographies of living persons (BLP) policy, even if it is not a biography, because it contains material about living persons. Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately from the article and its talk page, especially if potentially libellous. If such material is repeatedly inserted, or if you have other concerns, please report the issue to this noticeboard.

This page is about a politician who is running for office or has recently run for office, is in office and campaigning for re-election, or is involved in some current political conflict or controversy. For that reason, this article is at increased risk of biased editing, talk-page trolling, and simple vandalism.

Lead section

If I understand correctly from the lead section, Dr. Nduom's main claim to fame is to have been born on February 15, 1953 at Elmina in the Central Region. Is that right? --Blanchardb-^{Me•MyEars•MyMouth}-timed 15:04, 26 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There are clear assertions of notability further on in the text, so I am inclined to let that pass. The more serious problem is that the whole thing is written in an excessively friendly tone. I have tagged it as POV and needing a complete rewrite in more neutral terms. --DanielRigal (talk) 15:30, 26 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I did not mark the article for deletion either. I did see the assertion of notability further down. My comment above was meant to explain why I tagged this article with {{intromissing}}. Sometimes, the first sentence of an article is the only sentence a casual reader will read. I do not want people to dig through the whole article just to see what it is that made Nduom famous. --Blanchardb-^{Me•MyEars•MyMouth}-timed 16:33, 26 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why Dr. Nduom is known

He is well known because he is a influential former member of Government and current Presidential Candidate in Ghana.

Just FYI. We will clean up this postKwekoolio (talk) 16:36, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I hope this question is now partly answered at least.--Natsubee (talk) 16:16, 6 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Assessment comment

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Paa Kwesi Nduom/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

==Initial rating== To date this article is not rated, although discussion is going on and improvements have been made. I therefore deem it prudent to rate it as quality=Start, with importance=low (although this could become mid if Nduom is elected to the presidency in December). I also added a WikiprojectAfrica banner. Michel Doortmont (talk) 01:23, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
