Talk:District Six

message: ----
I hope someone who knows the facts, etc, better than I will edit the article to draw attention to the fact that although the bulldozers made the land AVAILABLE for re-development, that re-development, largely, did not occur.
It seems too much to hope, but the idealist in me gives some credit to the claim I heard that at least part of the reason is that no one who would have been allowed to live there wanted to take advantage of what the government had done. At least the possibility should be mentioned in the article?

Another minor tidy which may be necessary: Besides the church(es?)... there were, around 2002, a few other buildings there, I think. Police houses, I think. Left from before the bulldozers, I think.
Thank you, Wikipedia authors!

message: In the section District_Six#Return the end of the last sentence does not read logically.
However, the historical legacy and "struggle credentials" of most of the trust leadership made it very likely that it would continue to represent the claimants  as it was the main non-executive director for Nelson Mandela.
I suspect some kind of editing error but hard to tell, I have not looked to see if there are other earlier versions of this section that may be more sound. There is no immediate cite so not sure if the original source is on-line for perusal.
