The team behind Wikipedia is applying its collaborative information-gathering model to journalism.
Through a new effort, Wikinews, members of the open-source community who write and edit Wikipedia's encyclopedia entries are encouraged to test their skills as journalists. The news site follows a similar set of rules as the encyclopedia, which allows anyone to edit and post corrections to entries, so long as each change is recorded.
You can view, contribute or edit news articles at Wikinews category for Zambia.
This should make all the Zambian journalists harrased over demo very happy.

Contributing news articles about African nations is often difficult due to there being less news sources (especially ones available online, and possible to read outside the country). I've gone ahead and written a sample article in that category -- hopefully those following links from your blog will see it and get inspired to post more. Ilya
