Hey,
Oscar's suggestion to have the precise name of the building cannot go
unnoticed since most offices for org's,instituions,companies e.t.c. in
Nairobi have rented spaces and do not necessarily own the building.
On that note therefore,I suggest that from now on as we populate the
targets for WTN we cite the location as we have been doing then the
building name of our target rather than just the location.
Cheers,
Steve

Hey Oscar,
Yah, your suggestion's part of the scope for this. Go ahead and place a
link
to the non-existing articles you have. After the scavenger hunt for
pics,
the second part of the competition will be writing creating the new
articles: in Swahili and / or English.
You can find a link on our homepage to a brief of the whole thing.
Cheers,
Alex.
