Table Mountain
The image and dimensions can be judged much better when having a reference distance, hende added to caption the 5,2 km between Lion's Head and Devil's Peak together with Google link, which does however not provide the 5,2 km, these I calculated with "www.gps-coordinates.net/distance"

Illustrirte Zeitung
Every native German speaker (like me) thinks that the article title must be a mis-spelling due to the missing "e", because the old variant (used in the title) is completely forgotten. I added that to the intro, of course I do not have sources but you may check that readily with wikiquote etc.

Rhodes Memorial
The intro - like probably many know - lacked some kind of summary including the controversies. I tried, and I think it is quite ok. I would welcome suggestion proposals and discussions on the talk page, instead of spontaneous actions in the new section. Thx.

Rhodes Memorial
→Location: the link just corrected by me was wrong, it linked to the article about C to C ROAD, but Rhodes planned a railway + telegraph line from C to C, which was an entirely different project for a different 'path'

Hiking equipment
The first "citation needed" tag in the introduction did not make sense, as the sentence in question is really common knowlege. The sentence about possible government regulations may seldomly apply (in the Himalaya, for example), but is way too specific for the intro, hence deleted.current

Table Mountain
added a hint to the introduction which might save some people from making bad decisions; this is written in nearly every cape town guide, and comes from my own experience as well

Rhodes (disambiguation)
→People: Cecil Rhodes is, ''because'' of his highly controversial role and undisputed significance for Africa, someone who should not be described with "politician from xyz in 19th century" hence I added some key points

Mac (computer)
→Product lineup: the frontal image of the Mac Pro, even a not-very-good-looking computer graphics image, was improvable. Exchanged by one of the best real images from Commons.

Sally Ride
→STS-7: added that the HP-41 calculators were customized (which can be looked up in various sources such as our article), as there appearance is strongly different from, e.g., one can see in HP-41C or the like

Thermal printing
→Fax machines: fax was a "killer application" for thermo transfer printing in the 1990s, every serious business had to have a fax number (or you were hopelessly oldfashioned) - hence added image with short explanation

HP-65
put image with magnetic card (which was the first, though it has some flaws like a strange perspective) more down and replaced by new front view image (new on Commons)
