Do we know what **kind** of Wikipedians Aaron is looking for?****
On the one hand it sounds like “any Kenyan Wikipedians”, and of course, in
WMKE, there are easily more than 15.****
On the other hand he seems to focus on regular **Swahili** editors, and
then he may not even find 3 in **Nairobi** or even in all of ****Kenya****
.****
Btw, top contributors for sw:wp are listed here:
http://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/TablesWikipediaSW.htm or here:

Fwiw,****
Oliver (aka BT)
I think you can safely assume it will be any Kenyan Wikipedians. I've cc'ed
Aaron so he can say for sure. :-)

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.
