[edit] Exploration

While the entry for Johannes Rebmann links to Krapf, this page doesn't reference his activities with Rebmann in regards to exploring the African Indian Ocean coast, Kilimanjaro, Mt. Kenya, etc. until way down in the page. I think it should be included in his summary. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Nowax (talkcontribs) 21:12, 4 May 2007 (UTC).

Done. Thanks for the comment. Mehmet Karatay 19:51, 16 May 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Article expansion

I think this article could do with a lot of expansion. The article on Johannes Rebmann has a lot of content that is also applicable here, especially the discovery of Kilimanjaro and Mt Kenya and the Slug map sections. These sections form the majority of the article.

Does anybody have any idea of what the best way to deal with this is? It would be good if the source for those sections could be kept the same and then used in both articles as they will always be a lot of overlap. Any comments? Mehmet Karatay 20:01, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
