Reason for the influx of Namibia editors?
Greetings, I've noticed a lot of new Namibia aritlces coming out? While this is great to see overall, as our Africa coverage could really use improvement, I'm curious as to what the reason for this is. Has some university started assigning Wiki articles as coursework? Had some club or institution decided to focus on improving Namibia coverage?

I'd greatly appreciate it if you could hit my Talk button and message me with any insight. If there's an organised effort to get Namibians contributing, we can probably put a welcoming committee together to make sure everyone's getting the support they need. Thanks for any insight!
