Our organization has geocoded 700 new places in Kenya and Uganda that are not part of the geonames.org collect. How can we import them all at once?

You can send me the data in csv file.

Thanks a lot for your contribution.

do you just want basic locations, or should I mimic the structure of the downloaded KE.txt file exactly?

I think for each we have 
location name | aliases | lat | long | country | city/region

This is perfect. You dont have to mimic the download file structure.
