iCommons is collecting South Africa's heritage
| The South African Police long rifle shooting team in 1950. , by Piet Dreyer |

A bunch of incredible volunteers and the iCommons staff are at a shopping mall
today recording stories and scanning images for Wikimedia Commons in
celebration of Heritage Day weekend in South Africa.
We've had some incredible stories that volunteer translators are translating into
Sotho, Xhosa, Afrikaans and Zulu - check it out as it happens on our Jaiku channel. Also check out our contributions so far on the iHeritage page for WikiMedia Commons.
Thank you so much to everyone who has helped out
