Hello nice people!
In April 2012 immediately after we Boeing-ed (or is it jet back) from Berlin. We had awesome tweets and re-tweets
with some WMKE members about the need to have a Wikimedia Kenya blog.
See images at [1] and [2] below.
First, I endorse this idea and I hope that way we will have all our updates and progress in what we are doing
in an elaborate manner and style. Emails are not that refined especially to new members and to the
international community who are part of this list and the whole Wikimedia fraternity.
Secondly, we will request to join chapters planet which aims to facilitate information sharing about the work of
the Wikimedia chapters and the Wikimedia Foundation by aggregating their blog feeds in one place and providing
translation services.
This way other chapters will know what we are doing and we will also get free translation services to other languages
like Chinese now that they are building Thika road and they need to know about Wikimedia Kenya:).
(Decided to use Chinese as an example)
For my part, it will be a part of my signature in all emails and where necessary point to it if an email am writing
has a blog post up for clarity and further reading which I will definitely help. See [3].
Looking forward to your feedback about this.
