Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Pieter Bosch Botha, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Jim1138 (talk) 09:14, 14 April 2017 (UTC)

Pieter Bosch Botha
Wikipedia goes by wp:COMMONNAME. Use his most recognized name. Thank you Jim1138 (talk) 09:15, 14 April 2017 (UTC)

You left a bad ref: which I removed. Please use wp:Show preview and check your work. Take a look at the References section as well. The error can be seen here Thank you Jim1138 (talk) 09:27, 14 April 2017 (UTC)
