I am Rudolph Botha living in Pretoria, South Africa. Wikipedia is lekker. I love reading about philosophy, science, movies and any other question I have. I try to contribute where I can.

[edit] Approach
I initially just used Wikipedia for quick referencing, but then got fascinated by the its concept of editing. Since then I've added a few things, but I don't think I'll ever be one of the advanced (or even intermediate) editing users. Still, when I see something that needs fixing, I do my part to improve Wikipedia. I would like to contribute more photos South African related articles, and started slowly with this mini project.
[edit] I started the following pages
- Airports Company South Africa
- Amphitheatre, Drakensberg
- Bunny Chow (Film)
- Casper de Vries
- Wally Hayward
- Jukskei
- Nieu-Bethesda
[edit] Mayor changes
[edit] I started the following categories
- Category:Words of Afrikaans origin (which needs to be renamed to Afrikaans loanwords)
- Category:Afrikaans South Africans
- Category:Mountain Ranges of the Drakensberg, replaced with Category:Drakensberg for some reason.
- Category:Artists against crime
- Category:Climbing areas of South Africa
- Category:South African poker players
[edit] Photos added
Since photography is one of my hobbies, I would like make a bigger contribution here in future....
