[edit] South African heraldry

Hi, thanks for creating the nice article on South African heraldry. I wonder if you would be able to go through and indicate which facts come from which references, since you probably still have all the sources to hand. (I see you've been around for a while, so you probably know about the attribution policy; the m:Cite.php syntax is a good way of adding such citations). Dr pda 21:46, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Billwallace: It is not only my opinion but also that of the USA that the so-called Liberation Armies of SA were Terrorist Organisations. Tokyo Sexwale is a case in point.
