White South Africans are WHITE SOUTH AFRICANS! Ons is mense van die land! |

Don't relate us to Europeans. |

::The same way that white Americans are invaders in the USA, Zulu Africans are invaders in South Africa, and so on. Reality is, anyone born in Africa is African, just as anyone born in America is American. More centuries have passed since white South Africans settled in South Africa than has passed since white Americans settled in the United States. ] (]) 20:13, 4 June 2024 (UTC) |

"South Africa has a mixed economy, South Africa's economy is the most industrialized and technologically advanced in Africa respectively, it has the second largest economy in Africa, after Nigeria and the 39th largest in the world." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is a strange run-on sentence and I don't even know what the "respectively" means here. At the very least please change the first comma to a full stop (or period as Americans call it?) but here's my proposal to rephrase it (or something like this, feel free to rephrase it, English isn't my first language) |

There is also what I think is an unnecessary capital letter in the next paragraph: |
|
|
|
] |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The article ] has been ] because of the following concern: |
|
"South Africa is ranked 40th by total Wealth" |
|
|
|
<blockquote>'''Unreferenced and unimproved 15 years. No reliable sources on Google. Run of the mill last name. Not enough information to merge.'''</blockquote> |

I think "Wealth" shouldn't be capitalised? |
