Thank you Limoke. Its good to hear that the local chapter of
is active and vibrant.
I first heard of this group wayback in 2009 when Mediawiki was
conducting local campaigns to enroll more content writers especially
from public universities.
Kenya.or.ke was conceptualised in 2007 with the aim of having local
content written by locals or anybody with a good experience of kenya
and all facets of information and data that can be relevant to the
Kenyan scenario.
Indeed we would love to collaborate with the group and enhance the
Kenyan information presence on the internet. Do you have an idea of
how we should approach it?
Regards
Kivuva

Dear Lordmesh,
I just dug tis from my archives and thought I could loop you in. So a
couple of the KWC winners took up the initiative of starting up a Kenyan
Wikimedia Chapter(
http://www.wikimedia.or.ke/Home) and we got recognition
from the Wikimedia Foundation as the 2nd chapter in Africa and the 39th
worldwide. We have been quite an active lot and if you guys are interested,
we could find a way to work together to increase Local Kenyan Content
online both in Wikipedia and the kenya.or.ke
Please let me know what your thoughts are .
