can see your point although I don't agree with it. Yes, we can look at other examples where ethnicity is built into a constitution. Going back only 50 or so years we would certainly be swamped with examples. As of today there would be fewer examples but probably more than one might think. I am not familiar enough with the Israel/Palestinian situation to comment except that there is clearly something amiss there. Back to the issue in hand. What is apartheid? An official way of separating races (as the article's opening sentence says) or an official way of keeping one race in a superior position? Both descriptions probably fit but I think the first is more neutral and more accurate. In any case there is a clear enough connection between the SA and the NZ situation to justify inclusion in the See also section.

parliament but similar legislated apartness exists in society. Sound familiar? Here is the opening sentence to the
Apartheid article: "Apartheid (/əˈpɑːrt(h)aɪt/, especially South African English: /əˈpɑːrt(h)eɪt/, Afrikaans: ; transl. "separateness", lit. "aparthood") was a system of institutionalised racial segregation that existed in South Africa and South West Africa (now Namibia) from 1948 to the early 1990s" This is a quote from a source about the Maori seats I will shortly add to my "See also" link: "Separate representation has been indicated as a kind of political limbo, both irrational and reactionary to the point of apartheid. In the words of one foreign correspondent: 'The parallels between New Zealand and South Africa are ominous'.
802:@Turnagra. Yet again, you are avoiding the issue. This is NOT about race relations, it is about legislation that separates people based on their ethnicity. You can stomp and shout as much as you like but until you address that point this discussion will go nowhere. You earlier tried to dismiss the source I gave. The point of the source is that a RSS, the publication, confirms that my view of one possible interpretation of the Maori seats is also held by others. That makes the source reliable for that purpose. The author does not have to say whether that interpretation is correct or not to be added to the See also section. @Greenman, the source is open to view in full online

people differently based on their ethnicity. That is why I mentioned post-independence Fiji - and the issues around native
Fijians becoming a minority. Apartheid was a policy backed by legislative racial distinction of the population. The policy on how to handle the Waitangi Treaty is, to an extent, the same - it treats people differently based on their ethnicity. This has nothing to do with the effect the SA and NZ policies have on Blacks and Maori, which is what you are focusing on. Of course Maori are not in anything like the same position the SA blacks were under apartheid.
715:? You clearly have a warped interpretation of race relations in New Zealand and so far have only been able to produce a source from the 1980s to back up your outrageous claims, as if race relations in NZ have not progressed in forty years. This has nothing to do with what "my view" is (since I know you think I'm a government agent, or something) but rather that you're making a massive, politically loaded statement, one which frankly doesn't hold any water.

and one in 1994. This is problematic because "First
Republic of South Africa" includes the 1983 period in its summarization. That leaves the third option: that this is a purely subjective designation used by contributors who wish to have a separate article for South Africa as it existed during the National Party era from 1948 to 1994. Covering the whole period from 1948 to 1994 is an issue for those who espouse this view because it was technically the

honestly see no reason why it shouldn't be on this page. Pretty much every country has articles for the previous republics. Nigeria's first republic has its own article when it only lasted 4 years.

1948 and the early 1990s. Again, to reiterate: apartheid was a legal system, not a country. I have removed the infobox - bizarrely, it was located in the "Society" section of this article, which has no relevance to that infobox anyway - and cannot endorse its re-addition to the article without at least some kind of discussion here on the talk page. --

described as being under apartheid in some form or another. Like I said, this is problematic because it's a subjective point of view. It basically boils down to people wanting a separate article for South Africa in the apartheid era, which I'd argue is redundant (to this article) and like I said, rather subjective. --

The fact that you are once again blind to any balanced discussion on this topic, even to the point of putting words in someone else's mouth, says it all really.

Never thought this article was needed. South Africa has never formally declared a second republic, making use of the term "First

There is no consensus to add the text, and the source that supposedly compares the Maori situation to apartheid is not accessible to me to see. Arguing what you or I think is not important. We need reliable sources making this comparison. I suggest sharing the full text of this source and any other

You are right to an extent, I do not see it that way, although I'm not even sure what 'that way' is. Logically, the ethnic groups to compare are black SAs and non-Maori NZers, not, as I think you are taking it, as blacks=Maori and whites=non-Maori. If you think my view is simplistic or rigid then I

You may not perceive it to be that, but there is absolutely an implication there focusing on the negative aspect. I think that's taking a way too overly broad interpretation of "see also" - if we included everything which treated people differently based on ethnicity, the list would be enormous and

You are missing the point which I think is blatantly obvious. The point is not comparing the negative intent, implementing and consequences of apartheid in SA with what applies in NZ. The connection is that both countries had/have a constitution and legislation in place that acknowledges and treats

195:
Agreed. The
Republic of South Africa still exists, albeit with a new constitution and massive changes to its government and politics in 1994. Apartheid was not a country, and if we accept this reasoning, then this page is not an article about a country. The country infobox remains inappropriate.
854:
Consequently my suggestion is that we limit the whole "See also" section. I would remove those articles that are specific apartheid events/places/people (which should be linked from the main article or from articles linked from the main article). I would also remove all other links included as

It's perfectly fair to have an infobox. Post-apartheid South Africa is in their third republic following independence from the United
Kingdom in 1961. South Africa's first (1961-1984) and second (1984-1994) republics/constitutions both upheld apartheid, which is relevant to the article. And I
