[edit] Another South African!
I've followed some of your recent edits and I love them! Why don't you tell us a bit about yourself on you user page? From you edits I'm assuming you're South African. It's at times like this when I stop feeling so pessimistic about Wikipedia's coverage of African topics. Zyxoas (talk to me - I'll listen) 18:51, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hey!
Well, seems I run into you all over the Internet. Welcome to Wikipedia. Some extra tips: For adding references to an article, the footnotes system is pretty handy. I like to also use various citation template to format the references nicely. For some examples, check out the Crimen injuria or Sharpeville Massacre articles. (You may want to add to those articles, if you feel bored.) Check out the links on the Sharpeville Massacre page to the TRC report: There's a wealth of information there for articles on Apartheid-era politics. -Kieran 18:40, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
