• Please ignore the message just above, from a new New Page Patroller who did not know how to deal with a contribution not in English. I will explain to him. New Page Patrol is a tedious, difficult but essential part of maintaining Wikipedia, because we get more than one new article a minute, and a regrettably high proportion are unsuitable.

• This article exists on the Swahili Wikipedia at sw:Wachagga. It cannot simply be cut and pasted into this Wikipedia, because that loses the article history, which we are required to maintain in order to give proper attribution credit to the authors who wrote the article.

Also, this is the English-language Wikipedia, so articles need to be in English. There is an explanation at Wikipedia:Translation of how to arrange translation into English of an article in another Wikipedia.

However, we already have an article on this subject at Chaga people. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 10:19, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
