[Wikimedia Kenya] Please i need your assistance
by Jessica Colaco 31 Oct '11

31 Oct '11

Hope you get this on time, I made a trip to London UK and had my bag stolen from me with my passport and personal effects therein. The embassy is willing to help by letting me fly without my passport, I just have to pay for a ticket and settle Hotel bills. Unfortunately for me, I can't have access to funds, I've made contact with my bank but they need more time to come up with a new one. I was thinking of asking you to lend me some quick funds that I can give back as soon as I get in. I really need to be on the next available flight. I can forward you details on how you can get the funds to me. I await your response Thanks

[Wikimedia Kenya] Wikipedia for Schools: Request for Receipts
by Abbas Mahmood 31 Oct '11

31 Oct '11

Hi all, I am kindly requesting the participants of WfS to please hand me over any receipts that you may still have with you with respect to this project. David, I need the Mombasa receipts. Branton, I need the taxi receipts. And all the Mombasa folks, I need the bus tickets. I realize that this is way too late to ask for this, but I have been asked by the Foundation to show them the receipts. I also know that some minor transactions may not have receipts, and I've told the Foundation so. Sincerely Abbas.

----- Forwarded Message ----- From: Isla Haddow-Flood <islahf(a)africacentre.net> To: stephen wanjau <wanjaustev(a)gmail.com>; Alex Wafula <xelawafs(a)yahoo.com>; Kosgei Isaac <kipchogekosgei(a)gmail.com> Sent: Thursday, October 27, 2011 8:55 AM Subject: Re: WIKIAFRICA Re: WIKIAFRICA Dear Stephen, Alex and Isaac Hello. As I am sure that Iolanda has told you, WikiAfrica is looking for a Wikipedian-in-Residence to kick start its ambitious programme throughout Africa. I’ve taken on board what many wikipedians have said, and I hope that everything is now clear. Please find the link to the call for applications here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/18yAZxGcBuRO2Zp7vHGHV0q5aM1XaCzqIRSgQWm8… I would be grateful if you could send this out to your networks to ensure that all wikipedians in Africa do get a chance to apply. I would also be very interested in working closely with Wikimedia Kenya to achieve our mutual goals. You are doing some very exciting projects and yes, I do think that there are definite synergies. Perhaps we could have a skype chat sometime next week to see where we can help each other out? I look forward to hearing from you.

[Wikimedia Kenya] Possible visit to Kenya by Aaron
by Kosgei Isaac 25 Oct '11

25 Oct '11

Here is a message from Aaron , Please read and react to it, I am writing you now because I am considering traveling to Kenya to meet and interview other Wikipedians in your country. However, in order to make such a trip worthwhile, I would need to locate as many Wikipedia users and editors as possible -- ideally at least 15 or more. (More than that would be better still.) Do you think it would be possible to find that many Wikipedians in Kenya? And if so, do you have any suggestions of where I might find them? And how I might contact them? If you could put me in touch with any Kenyan Wikipedians I would certainly be grateful. Also, if you have links to any pages that track top contributors to the Swahili language Wikipedia, that would be most useful. I am also considering traveling to other African countries, so if there are other countries that you think I should visit, please suggest them as well. Thank you, -- Aaron Muszalski Community Department I also had a chat with him later and here is the message Aaron: You're most welcome. :-) So -- WMF will send me, but they want to make sure that, if they do send me, that I return with a good number of interviews And -- perhaps more importantly A number of good interviews 10:05 ones that could make good appeals Which is a challenge me: We can work that out together Aaron: Because only a small percentage of all interviews ever result in an effective appeal Yes, I agree Also -- there was a man from Nairobi in the news about a year ago 10:06 Who built a plane using information he learned on Wikipedia It would be most excellent to track him down and meet with him as well 10:07 me: I will share that with them too We can track him down for sure Aaron: His name is Gabriel Nderitu http://physicsworld.com/blog/2010/10/kenyan_physics_graduate_builds.html 10:08 me: ok. 10:09 Aaron: As far as the dates go - It might be in the range of the 11th - 18th Or possibly a week later. Please let me get your reaction to this mail and if we can get Wikimedians from Kenya and those who are not active wikimedians but have been using Wikipedia in what they do. -- Isaac K. Kosgei.

by Limoke Oscar 24 Oct '11

24 Oct '11

Hi Guys, I had an interview with Heather Ford from Ushahidi on Saturday at the iHub and she would love to have a session with WMKE members and Wikipedians when she comes back to Kenya. As far as the dates go - It might be in the range of the 11th - > 18th...this would be awesome as the tentative date for the meeting is 12th November at the iHub. Maybe we could synch?? So what are your thoughts and suggestions towards this? Should we have a meetup with her? I will be setting up an event page where guys can RSVP but first i need your input on it. Best, -- Limoke Oscar,
