Our major aim is to improve the Mount Kenya article. This involves working on the articles that link from Mount Kenya as well. When we first found the Mount Kenya article it was still a stub.


Two people actually work under this account name, Mehmet Karatay and Gemma Richards. This happened by accident, but now we work together most of the time so it doesn't seem worth having separate accounts. To avoid confusion on discussion pages we'll write in the first person singular as the user name doesn't imply otherwise. We live in Edinburgh.

Wikipedia is a great excuse to research things that interest us to a greater depth than we would do otherwise. It is also an excellent place to practise and improving our writing.

Picture of the day

Great Yarmouth Town Hall is a municipal building on Hall Plain in Great Yarmouth, in Norfolk, England. It is the meeting place of Great Yarmouth Borough Council and is a Grade II* listed building. The town hall was designed by John Bond Pearce in the Queen Anne Revival style, with terracotta facings and a 110-foot-tall (34-metre) clock tower with a lantern above. It was opened by Edward, Prince of Wales (later King Edward VII), on 31 May 1882. The building served as the headquarters of Great Yarmouth County Borough Council for much of the 20th century and has continued to operate as the local seat of government following the formation of the enlarged borough council in 1974. This hand-colored photochrom shows Great Yarmouth Town Hall in the 1890s, seen from opposite the River Yare.
