List of South African legislation
A list of (allegedly) all South African laws. Delete as WP:NOT an indiscriminate collection of (soon-to-be-outdated) information; such data is available at the relevant government website. Was de-prodded for the reasons that (a) at least some of these laws must be notable, (b) not every South African citizen has Internet access. To (a), one might reply: let's see the articles about these notable laws first; as far as I know we don't allow red-link lists. The answer to (b) is left as an exercise to the reader, but keep in mind that there are unlikely to be many printed versions of Wikipedia in South African libraries.

 * Weak Delete. There must be something in this that is useable. There some legislation that stands out a little. Perhaps when there's some articles on some of these legislations we'll have a context for the notability of the rest. Until then... &#2384; Metta Bubble puff  14:01, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as Wikipedia is not a mirror of gov.za. Stifle 01:01, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete a dump of information from the SA web site. User:Kappa deprodrd this because not all South Africans have access to the internet. I presume that is the reason he wants it on an internet encyclopaedia.--Porturology 12:23, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak delete in its earliest incarnation this was actually a useful page, providing a list of key pieces of apartheid-era legislation links. (I see that these are duplicated at apartheid). Not so useful now. Humansdorpie 17:36, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
