The ] article contained a range of claims - all unsubstantiated, some simply not true - ranging from ''the South African government does not publish crime statistics'' to ''in most cases victims are tortured and women raped''. My feeling is that if the truth of these serious claims is doubtful, they should not be included. Best wishes, ] 10:09, 15 December 2005 (UTC) | |||

| Hello Humansdorpie, | |||
| To wrap up the conversation, the first directive of Misplaced Pages is BE BOLD. All official policies are subservient to that rubric. And now, all of my articles are on watch-lists so I know when the censors are doing their often misguided work. I often win arguments for deletions, when I know about them. I win them consistently when I'm dealing with writers trained in deliberation. You might chose to be sporting and email the article's author when you decide to remove work. It's an opportunity for personal growth. | |||
| ] will be added again to the collection --- stronger, more precise. Maybe it'll be clear to you where she stands in late 20th century art this time around. Too bad you can't see her work. Maybe I'll post some. | |||

| Hello Humansdorpie, | |||
| I'm very enthusiastic about collaborating in re-writing the ] article. I'm going to start by centralising my facts, and then writing out a draft layout (in accordance to accepted Wiki formats), and then perhaps we can both start adding to that as the central article? Or perhaps you have a layout and structure you'd prefer to use? | |||

| If you move an article that's on afd, please make sure that it still points at the discussion instead of a redlink; this helps the discussion be found if you stumble across the article (or actually wrote it), instead of just reading afd.

I'm scratching my head, trying to remember - I think I got rid of information that is duplicated on other pages - e.g. the social structure of the ] and ] peoples - and tried to give an overview of the broad history and social structure of Nguni people. It looks as though I also tried to resolve confusion resulting from the statement that ''Nguni is an artificial term, which suggests an ethnic unit, which it is not'', when in fact many academics (and the article) ''do'' nowadays use "Nguni" to describe a specific ethnic group. Hope this is helpful - please let me know if I can help further - ] 19:04, 15 March 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ::Ah, that's progress. Yeh, I think some of this is plain wrong, as does ] (on ] - posting from a mobile phone, can you believe - but reading replies on his own Talk). I think there may be ''another'' go at re-writing this. You know, what we really need is a secondary school history book – maybe a BoLeSwa one or a ''new'' South African one. You don't have such to hand do you? | |||
| :::I don't, unfortunately. I've just been flicking through current (2006) ] History lectures on ''Turmoil and Transformation in the Southern African Interior'', though. They use Nguni and northern Nguni very matter-of-factly throughout to refer to ethnic groups. Elizabeth Isichei, writing in 1997, makes the points that (a) the word has changed meaning over the last 400 years, and (b) that no ethnic group in present-day South Africa considers itself Nguni - I think her view is that its use is faintly Eurocentric . Isichei compromises by using 'Nguni' in quotation marks as shorthand to describe "African peoples who live east of the Drakensbergs and south of the Tsonga of Mozambique" and their languages. "So-called", in other words... but I think the article already makes that point. ] 20:19, 15 March 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ::::Oh. Because Zimbabwean Ndebele friends assure me they are Nguni, as do Chichewa-speaking friends in Malawi. Perhaps this is a SAfrican thing. I get the impression that, in reaction to the way ethnic identification was (ab)used in the past, SA is in flight from some terms which are happily used as self-descriptors elsewhere on the continent. There's a discussion about just this at ]. Or I might just be wrong... But yes, the article should reflect the different sensibilities on this. | |||
| Actually, I've just copied the last two §s to ], cos this is getting important for the article. ] 21:07, 15 March 2006 (UTC) | |||
| == Taylor Lea Thomas == | |||
| Just wanted to drop you a note to let you know that the article on ] has undergone significant changes and will continue to improve with time. I appreciate you reading the article in the first place. We are trying all we can to make the article better suited for Misplaced Pages because Ms. Thomas has accomplished a lot and has received many awards and press for it and therefore, appropriate for this medium. I hope that you will soon see this for yourself and opt instead to keep the article. Thank you kindly. ] 14:15, 20 March 2006 (UTC) | |||

Proposed deletion of File:Ground-hornbill.jpg
The file File:Ground-hornbill.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Unused, low quality, superseded by files at c:Category:Bucorvus leadbeateri.
While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.
Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. --Minorax 15:38, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
File permission problem with File:Nkomo-ZAPU.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Nkomo-ZAPU.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.
If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
- make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
- Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{permission pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.
If you believe the media meets the criteria at Misplaced Pages:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Misplaced Pages:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Misplaced Pages:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. Here is a list of your uploads. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Misplaced Pages's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Minorax 15:11, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
