Introduction

It's about time that I'm here. I've been using Wikipedia for years but have not contributed until now. I came here mainly to post references to some important information for a couple of articles. I might contribute actual content later if I feel qualified.

Thanks to all the users who have created this incredible resource that has been an invaluable research tool for me. Now I'd like to do what I can to repay the favor.

Contributions

The Contributions page is a bit hard to read, so in order to show friends what I've been doing here, here is a list of my key changes to Wikipedia:

Added reference to The Last Mau Mau by David Njagi to bibliography of article on the Mau Mau Uprising (Sept. 24, 2008)

Added new section on Protest to external links of article on Kenya, with references to book about Ogiek by Towett Kimaiyo and to Who Owns Kenya? by Marshall Burns. Also added those references under Further reading in article on Politics of Kenya (Sept. 24, 2008: 1, 2)

Added new section on Land Disputes to article on the Ogiek people, with reference to book by Towett Kimaiyo (Sept. 24, 2008)

God as the Devil:
- Added new section on Jehovah as the Devil to article on the Devil (March 17, 2009)
- Revised that section to make encyclopedic, not original research (March 19)
- Added new article: God as the Devil, and changed Devil section to summary (March 21: 1, 2)
  - At Archive.org: Index, 2009 07 29, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2020, 2021: Considered for deletion, Deleted.
- Archived section on Cited Biblical references, which had been deleted and was under dispute (March 23)
- Proposed new version of deleted section (March 25)
- Inserted new version of deleted section into article (March 28)

Proposed an alternative approach to preserve the information in the article on the Functional states index, which was deleted because it was original research (May 24, 2009)
