A QUESTION ABOUT MAHATAMA GANDHI Gandhi was born in India. Why is he listed as a Notable South African? did he acquire citizenship from there or what?
He wasn't a Muslim priest. (Strictly speaking there is no such thing) He wasn't even a Islamic scholar. He was a Muslim who studied the Bible, and Christianity. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.222.6.200 (talk) 14:18, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

What exactly do Indian South Africans vote for?? You don't seem to believe it's former "white" parties. Let me show you an example:
I have started expanding this section, however there is an enormous amount that can be done.
Examples of additional information that can be added:
I would also appreciate assistance in cleaning up refs, etc to links that I have added. Park3r (talk) 11:52, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
The history section of the article talks about SA Indians today in the context of their politics, but there is a lot that can be written about their post-apartheid economic advancement and their movement into formerly white areas. There may also be source material on the movement of Indians from KwaZulu-Natal to places like Midrand in search of economic opportunity (something like this). If such material exists, it would broaden the scope of the article.Park3r (talk) 18:31, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
The image File:Deedat photo.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

This file is completely useless. The chloropleth map should only include values within the actual range of Indians per region! Coloring every single territory the same makes no sense and tells us absolutely nothing besides the fact that there is at least one Indian living in each of the areas, and none of the regions are a hundred percent Asian.
