Politics

constand viljoen was a politician as well. he was the founder of the freedom front/vryheidsfront and its chairman and represented the party in the south african parliament! --Severino 08:32, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

sorry i didnt see first that this is already mentioned. but maybe there should be more details about his political life, especially the events in bophuthatswana in spring 1994, his membership in parliament, his leadership of the VF and his poltical views. i've added the words he adressed to mandela when he retired from politics.--Severino 20:26, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Biased Wording against Lucas Mangope and Bophuthatswana

"In March 1994, Viljoen led an effort by several thousand Volksfront militia to protect bantustan figurehead Lucas Mangope in Bophuthatswana against a popular coup d'état." That expression isn't a neutral point of view. Lucas Mangope was the President of the souvereign state of Bophuthatswana and the bussing in of ANC thugs was neither popular nor a coup d'etat. --41.145.14.232 (talk) 13:14, 25 March 2016 (UTC)

• So what wording would you suggest? BoonDock (talk) 13:17, 25 March 2016 (UTC)

Systemic bias

Seeing as there has been absolutely no discussion for over two years on the "systemic bias" claimed by the tag on the page, I'm going to go ahead and remove the tag. BoonDock (talk) 01:34, 2 April 2023 (UTC)

Actually, the only claim of bias is over seven years old BoonDock (talk) 01:35, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
