Link needed to Afriforum
[edit]Link is needed to Afriforum wiki page under "findings" and may be worth mentioning that it is considered a white supremecist organisation. I can't edit as it's protected Ytr1m (talk) 23:34, 8 March 2025 (UTC)
- I removed one reference to Afriforum. I'll make sure the rest are gone. Simonm223 (talk) 14:05, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
- I've edited out any claims that Afriforum made regarding whether there is a concerted effort to attack and target Afrikaaners in South Africa and have left in those that are specifically about Afriforum's efforts to campaign among the far-right in Australia and the United States as those seemed an appropriate and neutral use of the source.

- Worth putting in that it's a white nationalist organisation? People now need to visit the Afriforum page to find that out. Peephole (talk) 07:04, 22 May 2025 (UTC)
- If we have a good reliable source calling Afriforum white nationalist I would be very happy to support inclusion of that description at first on-page mention. Simonm223 (talk) 10:52, 23 May 2025 (UTC)

- This comment will age poorly. Especially once the ANC's poor statistical gathering has been exposed.
- Btw, calling a group "white supremecists" doesn't make them so. Perhaps research into that a bit more before making false claims or referencing people who have slandered them as such. ~2025-32305-94 (talk) 10:52, 9 November 2025 (UTC)
Should it this sentence be stated as fact?
[edit]"The Government of South Africa and other analysts maintain that farm attacks form part of a broader crime problem in South Africa and do not have a racial motivation." is the sentence in question. Nib2905 (talk) 11:00, 14 October 2025 (UTC)
- It shouldn't. The government of South Africa, the ANC in particular, are renowned for lying for over 30 years to the public. The entire STATS SA - the country's statistical gathering and compilation organisational body - has been infiltrated with people loyal or coerced by the ANC.
- This is how you "control the narrative" as they like to accuse others of. ~2025-32305-94 (talk) 10:54, 9 November 2025 (UTC)
