Just a FYI, Alex , I believe this was meant for the List?
Building on Oscar's idea, here are links to the Wiki project Kenya and Africa pages: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Kenya http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Africa
Maybe you can get some pointers on articles to edit from the things you can do and open tasks sections respectively.
I've just added a resources section to the articles pad so if you have links to any resources on editing that you feel will be important to look over, please add them. http://etherpad.wikimedia.org/wmke-editathon-articles-dec2011
So , by show of hands who are confirming availability ton the said date? (10th at Strathmore)
