Assault rifles[edit]

Whether or not it is relevant to the tone and intent of the article, does anyone know whether the rifles used were AK 47's (7,62mm), 74's(5,45) or AKM's etc?

Interestingly enough, the guns used were R4s, not AK47s. That would make the rounds 5.45. The hand grenades were American. Go figure. -Kieran (talk) 11:46, 1 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, the R4 is 5.56mm Socrates2008 (Talk) 23:40, 1 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup and referencing[edit]

I've started referencing and cleaning up this article. It needs a bit of wikification, too (there are external links which should be references, and other formatting problems). Anyway, if I get around to it I'll come back and work further. The TRC reports are a good source of accurate information on what happened. -Kieran (talk) 12:31, 1 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kierano. I'm new to Wiki, dunno if this is the place to post / ask. Charl asked me to find out why you removed the reference to his home page Charl van Wyk? Staaldraad (talk) 07:10, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion of Nonxuba's death[edit]

I'm unclear on what this line means - "Nonxuba died in a car accident while on bail in November 1996, thereby leading to an incremental increase in public safety in South Africa.[1]"

The only way I can read it seems a little opinionated/facetious for a Wikipedia article105.233.76.219 (talk) 15:41, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
