Template:Outline of knowledge coverage

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 (talkcontribs) 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 (talkcontribs) 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 (talkcontribs) 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

Though I think Health in Kenya deserves a separate article, I suggest a merger as this topic is important enough to figure significantly within this article. Sarcelles (talk) 13:55, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't support the merger. The Kenya article is already quite long and health should be mentioned only briefly on that article, while there's plenty of room to expand the Health in Kenya article. As you said it's an important topic, doesn't specifically mean that it should have a separate article? Julius Sahara (talk) 15:04, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose merge. Wizzy 15:17, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose merge. As Julius said. --R.Schuster (talk) 11:39, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose merge. It's significant enough in its own right. Timrollpickering (talk) 19:38, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support Merge- Kenya is an LEDC, which means that the healthth issue is not as advanced for research and observation, rendering it less useful on it's. Or, merging it with other African nations' health may be appropriate.--Aubs 400 (talk) 11:53, 4 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This header is in the article since last year. Sarcelles (talk) 17:33, 26 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The header can be removed obviously. Sarcelles (talk) 15:07, 30 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Education

I suggest that this section should be reduced by a third. Sarcelles (talk) 12:13, 5 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Which content covering the history of education should be kept? Sarcelles (talk) 17:30, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Health translation project

Hi there, I'd be interested in getting in touch with a bilingual Swahili speaker who might be able to help us organise a project to translate a large part of the English Wikipedia's health content into this language. See Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Molecular_and_Cellular_Biology#Translation_project for more details. Although we're not quite ready to go public with this, this article is quite relevant.

Merge

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

  • 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.

Kenyans...

They run fast! 204.184.80.26 (talk) 16:14, 21 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

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.
