Languages
All eleven official languages, and also all sorts of non-official languages. Very little is published on most of the unofficial ones (and even many of the official ones). But readers who are mother-tongue speakers/native speakers of English, Afrikaans, any of the nine official African languages, any of the Indian languages, South African Sign Language and all of the other non-standard varieties/dialects, and especially those who may have direct experience of non-standard dialects (e.g. who know about speech communities embedded within other communities): these would ALL be welcome to contribute to the SA languages pages. Their knowledge is invaluable, especially if it has no published source. Of course, all such claims would have to be verified later, but in the meantime, such first-hand experience will push forward the boundaries of linguistic knowledge in South Africa.

 * Quotes
 * Did you know

Stubs
A large number of South African articles are still just stubs and should be expanded. Have a look through Category:Stub-Class South Africa articles, for articles to work on.

To Do Lists
Some South African articles have To Do lists on their talk pages, these indicate work to be done:


 * Talk:Desmond Tutu
 * Talk:First Boer War
 * Talk:Gautrain
 * Talk:South Africa national rugby union team

What Else
Look for articles that are SA-related, they can often turn up as uncategorised articles. Categorising them (even simply as Category:South Africa for now) will put them somewhere where they can be accessed for improvement.
