[edit] DYK

Updated DYK query On 7 June 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Disinvestment from South Africa, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

[edit] Re: Crime of apartheid template

You're right: the legal crime of apartheid was directly motivated by the situation in South Africa. It seems a bit odd for a navigational template to indicate cause-and-effect, but apparently the template has a section for that: "Instruments and legislation". I've changed the grey div to a blockquote; hopefully the article flows a bit better. GracenotesT ยง 05:39, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
