Talk:List of dignitaries at the state funeral of Nelson Mandela

Eminent Persons
I have restored the two eminent persons (Tanzanians) that were removed by User:WWGB. They are entitled as "Eminent" on the official website of the South African government and as such i therefore believe they ought to be included. As a Tanzanian national myself, I do not foresee a potential conflict of interest arising from my stance. Please do inform me if you believe otherwise. Ali Fazal (talk) 13:00, 14 December 2013 (UTC)

Desmond Tutu (non)-attendance
This story is developing and he may still attend. According to the latest news report, he was invited but I have just watched a government spokesman on TV say nobody was invited. It sounds like SNAFU to me. Helen Online  16:38, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
