Article has been well sourced, sources seems to be reliable, good length and size, although I would like to ask HelenOnline if you can add "Cape Town" before "Johannesburg", the sections should be alphabetical, I would've done myself but maybe you've got some reason.

It is based on a historical timeline. The first pride parade was held in Johannesburg in 1990 and the concept spread to other parts of the country after that. I think putting Cape Town first would lose a lot of context for the reader. Helen Online 17:05, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
