Talk:Kenya

Image

Why is there an image of a Maasai man in the demographics section? The Massai are a minority in Kenya. Most Kenyans, well over 95% dress in regular western type clothing. The image is largely misleading and gives a rather false impression of the country and its people. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.122.135.5 (talk • contribs) 04:13, 11 January, 2007 (UTC)

Religion

Seventh day adventist is Christian denomination. Not protestant, they are different from other churches becouse they keep all ten of god's commands, so they cant be put together with churches like anglican. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.198.138.143 (talk • contribs) 15:32, 1 October, 2006 (UTC)

It is more likely that the Anglican methods were the start of the early traditions, which have now been accentuated by the Christian demonination. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.106.83.140 (talk • contribs) 20:27, 12 November, 2006 (UTC)

Climate change vulnerability

This page is locked so I cannot add to it, so perhaps one of you can. Kenya is THE MOST vulnerable country to climate change; see page 830 of the official IPCC report: http://www.ipcc.ch/pdf/assessment-report/ar4/wg2/ar4-wg2-chapter9.pdf

Merge

Merge - The page is a stub and should be included in this article more. CrowzRSA ^{19:15, 14 February 2010 (UTC)}

• No. If you are unhappy with the stub status of the Health in Kenya article, then expand it (should not be too difficult). Note that this issue was already discussed above and the merger was unanimously opposed. In fact, the template has been around for quite a while and should had already been removed.

History Section: should be neutral POV

I will work on improving this over the next few days/weeks as part of the Kenya Project efforts. —Preceding unsigned comment added by DrJenkinsPhd (talk • contribs) 19:08, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

Debate: Should we summarize the "Colonial History" section...

I propose we summarize the "colonial History" section. I think the colonial History section is too large and too detailed for an overview section. It has its own page making much of the material on Kenya page rather redundant. It also takes what appears to be a pro-colonial POV lowering the overall quality of the Kenya article.

Here are the proposed changes: [[1]]

Please have a look and discuss the your views here. Be sure to state whether your oppose or support the idea. Thanks.ScottPAnderson (talk) 19:18, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

Oppose. I think the Kenya article is now about right in its coverage of the colonial era--we should not be erasing groups (like Indians, Germans and British settlers) who played central roles but who are out of favour with the current government. Let's not be playful by calling them the "English tribe." The History article of course is much more detailed, as it should be.Rjensen (talk) 01:34, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

Not agree

The first line of the national anthem is given in English and Swahili. They do not agree with each other. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.179.51.100 (talk) 11:25, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Wrong Coat of Arms

I just want to point out that the coat of arms used as the Kenyan Coat of Arms is wrong. The correct one has 2 male lions. The one that is used here has 2 dragons. Please not the tongue and sharp edges of the tail and other parts of the body. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.220.127.93 (talk) 12:07, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

thumb I've just uploaded File:Coat of arms of Kenya.jpg. It is in very low resolution, but I couldn't find any better from official sites. Greetings, --R.Schuster (talk) 18:22, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
