[edit] Link to Gikuyu language; new article on Gikuyu authors?

I added a link to Gikuyu language in the text, and one on that page to this - surprised they were not already there. Two quick questions:

1. Would a link to the article on Ngugi (when it is written) in the Gikuyu edition of Wikipedia be appropriate?
2. Would an article on literature (and other writing) in Gikuyu language, that highlights other Gikuyu language authors as well, be useful? Perhaps in connection with the article at Vernacular literature? - which, interstingly, already had links to both this article and the Gikuyu language one. --A12n 13:08, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dead link -- cached copy?

The reference to the Nairobi Standard article is dead. Perhaps something like the Wayback Machine has another copy?
