Raila Odinga

I am asking you kindly to stop removing information that is well resourced. The proper way to challenge an entry is to take it up on the discussion page. If you continue to remove information that is resourced by a valid newspaper I will have to get an admin involved. Again stop removing information just because you think it doesnt belong there. You must give more information other than "its not a valid resource" when you delete other users information. Per wiki rules that is not the correct way to edit a page on here. --Xinunus (talk) 05:25, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

Category:Meru people

[[Category:Ethnic groups in Kenya]]

Ministers of Kenya (Past and Present)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Ministers of Kenya (Past and Present), and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Kenyan ministers. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally moving or duplicating content, please be sure you have followed the procedure at Wikipedia:Splitting by acknowledging the duplication of material in edit summary to preserve attribution history.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 16:15, 25 April 2009 (UTC)


File Copyright problem
File Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading File:Tfalls.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Closedmouth (talk) 15:00, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Kimemia Maina! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 17 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

  1. Francis D. Imbuga - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Thanks!--DASHBot (talk) 07:12, 25 January 2010 (UTC)



Proposed deletion of Gibson Kamau Kuria

The deletion of an article you created, Gibson Kamau Kuria, has been proposed for the following reason:

WP:PROD and not WP:CSD/A7 based on age of article. Believe this fails WP:BIO notability standards based on awards not being notable. Notable enough to be in list of RFK HR awards recipients list

You are welcome to improve the article to meet Wikipedia's quality standards and remove the deletion notice from the article. You may also remove the notice if you disagree with the deletion, though in such cases, further discussion may take place at Articles for deletion, and the article may still be deleted if there is a consensus to do so.

Wikipedia has certain standards for inclusion that all articles must meet. Certain types of article must establish the notability of their subject by asserting its importance or significance. Additionally, since Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, content inappropriate for an encyclopedia, or content that would be more suited to somewhere else (such as a directory or social networking website) is not acceptable. See What Wikipedia is not for the relevant policy. You may wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Thank you. --GnoworTC 06:23, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Paul Muite

The article Paul Muite has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. WWGB (talk) 12:43, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

2011-12 East Africa Premier League

Greetings Kimemia Maina, I just thought I'd let you know that I saw your article 2011-12 East Africa Premier League in the New Articles list-- The citations and references look great.However, I think the article seems to contain a few errors: the article contains grammatical errors. It would be great if you could also add references to the related article One Day International.

It's nice to see you editing! Amy Z (talk) 15:09, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

Request for an Interview

Hi Kimemia Maina,

I recently sent you a message about 2011-12 East Africa Premier League.

I am a researcher at Carnegie Mellon University examining how to make interaction in Wikipedia more effective. Our research has shown that certain types of feedback encourage Wikipedians to edit more while others seem to discourage them. Experienced and less experienced Wikipedians seem to have different reactions to very similar feedback. I am interested in interviewing you about your reaction to the message I sent you. A discussion with you will help us better understand the types of feedback that can encourage newcomers's participation to Wikipedia without turning off old-timers.

I can talk with you via online chat, on Skype, over the phone, or just through Wikipedia messages if you are more comfortable with that. The interview should take take less than 60 minutes. You do need to be over 18 years old, and consent to be a part of the study in order to for me to interview you. This study has been approved by Carnegie Mellon's research ethics committee (the IRB), and the Wikipedia Research Committee.

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing from you soon. We will be glad to send you a draft describing our research results right after the interview.
