Statistics needed[edit]

It would be interesting to have a chart showing indicators over time, such as GDP, GDP per capita, unemployment, inflation, etc. -- Beland (talk) 21:39, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

References?[edit]

There are no references for the assertions about the effect of the sanctions in the late 80s. Druep (talk) 04:29, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ethnic References?[edit]

Does anyone have any thoughts on a more elegant way to state the difference between 'white' and 'black' groups as described within the article? I'd be willing to collaborate with anyone to help work on this. NorthViaSouth (talk) 02:17, 3 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Extreme lack of references[edit]

Aside from one print reference for a quotation, there are literally no references for this entire article, and it got mundane to keep adding {Citation needed} when editing sections for other reasons.

P.S. I think the other person brings up an extremely good point. This article's entire point is about the economy of South Africa, yet there is a distinct lack of any discussion on the statistical measures of economic health or growth for any year or across any time period. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Editor Sterling (talk • contribs) 07:18, 11 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
