Alex, Like we had earlier agreed, we had quite a really short window of time to pull up the contest from getting Sponsors., to getting Judges, criteria etc all in less than 30days. But it seems the page redirects from wikipedia have helped us loop in volunteers and from the other Personal Volunteers i had pulled up who keep pestering me about the contest, we can synch up a quick Criteria and judging so that we get it up and running.
We can synch up on a wiki or anywhere to pull this up by end of week?We can then pull in Lodewijik once we have something. Get back to me on this? Hoping you are still in Area Code 254? :-)
I suggest Steve keeps the Volunteers on the Commons Page engaged through email and discussions on how/what they could help Way to go good people. Am happy a few good things have happened in WMKE after a seemingly lengthy spell of misfortunes. :-)

And very interesting to learn that the banner on any Wikipedia Page in locale Kenya on "Wiki Loves Monuments: Photograph a monument, help Wikipedia and win!" redirects to the Wiki loves Monuments Kenya Page in Commons.

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?
Best,

Hi Stephen,
the highest priority should have a clear
description on the top of that
page:
- how people can participate (how to find the
monuments, and how to
upload)
- what they can win (even if that prize is only a
virtual one and a
nomination for the international finale)
- who will judge
- 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.
