Cool, I see the redirect has already been implemented, guess we can move
on from here with this. The next steps I see:
- *Settle on local judges and prizes*
- *Advertise* (social media and other channels) We already have some
traction on our Wikipedia Takes Nairobi Facebook page, we can build on some
update status on Facebook and tweets directing guys to the Wikipedia page.
Posting on mailing lists we are subscribed to woulod also be great.
Anything else to add?

Hello All!
I posted a message seeking assistance to move our page from Wikipedia to
commons at the WLM mailing list and the general opinion was to have it stay
at Wikipedia then create redirects from the banners to point there. Moving
the page would create too much unnecessary work.
Thanks,
Stephen

seems to work fine for me. Please let me know if you were expecting
something else.
Great things are moving again!

Hi All!
several people (see link [2] of Stephen) have indicated they want to
help.
Currently there are still zero uploads from Kenya, because it is not
clear
to people how to upload. Who is in charge for Wiki Loves Monuments Kenya
(or who wants to take responsibility and get things moving)? How can I
help
you to get the priorities straight and get things done? What is the
bottle
neck?
Well the priority is to get a site with full instructions on how to
enter the competition. Well, I have tried making a page in commons using
the [[Template:tabbar}} approach but seems I am missing out something
and it did not work out. So I am looking forward with some help with
that. I expected the tabs to have the navigation links to: about WLM,
How to participate, Where to find monuments, lists of the monuments etc.
I think the discussion page at [1] is the best to discuss of having the
site up.
I will take charge to get things moving if no one else has taken this up.

Hi Stephen,
the highest priority should have a clear description on the top of that
page:
1) how people can participate (how to find the monuments, and how to
upload)
2) what they can win (even if that prize is only a virtual one and a
nomination for the international finale)
3) who will judge
4) what are the criteria
I am surprised that this is still not clearly described on your page -
and
can now understand better why there are still no uploads for Kenya.
Please let me know if we need to help in any way, or need to explain
how
to do something. However, the work will still lie with you.
Best,
Lodewijk

Hi all!
The plans to participate in the aforementioned subject had already
started with the preparation of a planning page [1]. There have been
some
volunteers who have shown interest by signing up as willing to help or
participate in WLM 2012 [2]. I have responded to some private E-mails
from
willing participants and I expect the enquiries to increase. I
therefore
welcome more Wikimedians to assist me with that by probably adding the
email me in their commons usernames like I have done on mine.
