Afrikaans translation[edit]

An anonymous editor 203.25.230.27 made many constructive contributions to this and related articles, but in all cases included an Afrikaans translation of the name in the opening paragraph. Since South Africa has 11 official languages, Afrikaans should not be singled out in this way. I would welcome discussion on this, but each time I attempted to contact the anonymous editor, these attempts were ignored, and each time I removed the Afrikaans translation, it was reinstated. See my talk page for more details. Zaian 08:04, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

i'm not the user 203.. but i added the afrikaans translation for the national assembly here. its one of the official languages. in the article about the belgian parliament also both, the dutch and the french names are mentioned. if someones wants to add the names in languages like isiZulu, he is free to do so. --Severino 16:28, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I'm with Zaian here: If we put in the names in all 11 official languages, the first sentence would be a paragraph unto itself, and quite unreadable. I'm taking it out, but if you feel strongly about it, maybe a table of all 11 names, elswhere in the article, would be a good idea. -Kieran 20:39, 10 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

hm, maybe someone could tell IF there are specific names for the N. A. in isiZulu, isiXhosa and so on, which differ from the english name? i'm not sure. --Severino 14:20, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Mixed member?[edit]

SA's national assembly is chosen through proportional representation, and is not a mixed member institution. There are not two types of MPs. Psylocybha (talk) 03:01, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
