A (fairly important ?) businessman in Kenya ? I say keep - Africa gets short shrift on Wikipedia (and google ..) Wizzy 09:33, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I sympathize with you but "getting short shrift" is not a wikia guideline to promote stories - On the Africa wikia you will probably find much more,. however on the English wikia there is after searching, almost no notability here - Mosfetfaser (talk) 19:19, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

'On the Africa wikia' - there is such a thing ? We (myself South Africa) and Kenya mainly use the en wikipedia. There is a swahili wikipedia, but the language of business and government in Kenya is English. To return to topic, it could be construed as an attack page, but the subject is notable.

Maybe they meant the Afrikaans Wikipedia, but why that would cover Kenyans more than other wikipedias, I am not sure. Other possible languages that might have wikipedias, like Akan, would also not apply here. I am not sure about the merit of the article, but do have to say that we must remember the goal of wikipedia is not to right great wrongs.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:17, 26 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
They were probably referring to Wikia, a completely different project from Wikipedia that has no affiliation with the Wikimedia Foundation. The website allows users to build user-created wikis about anything, including Africa. Mz7 (talk) 18:22, 1 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
