Can you help?

We need some modern day images of the SAPOL uniform and vehicles that have been implemented into SAPOL in the last 3 years. If you have any that you've taken yourself, please upload them to the commons.wikimedia.org. We can add them to the page from there. Ethan Vixen ( talk) 08:01, 18 December 2014 (UTC) reply

History needs updating

The History section needs more information. Help if you can. Ethan Vixen ( talk) 08:01, 18 December 2014 (UTC) reply

Moved

SAPOL has moved. Therefore, I will be changing the address in the info box on the right hand side. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.43.227.18 ( talk) 18:05, 5 October 2011 (UTC) reply

Page is rather messy

The page could use a tidy up, some images seem unnecessary, list of commissioners might be better served on a seperate article, some information seem out dated of incorrectly sourced. SNITZ01 ( talk) 06:22, 3 November 2022 (UTC) reply

I didn't check the sourcing, but moved the list to the end of the article, as is usual practice for article layout for lists and long tables. (I think there's a guideline about this somewhere but don't remember the shortcut.) Laterthanyouthink ( talk) 06:39, 5 November 2022 (UTC) reply

Protective Security Officers

There is little to no information on this article about PSOs. PSOs played a significant role in SAPOLs COVID-19 response. SNITZ01 ( talk) 07:32, 3 November 2022 (UTC) reply

Added a section on PSOs, now known as Police Security Officers. Additional information such as ranks etc would be great if anyone can find a source. SNITZ01 ( talk) 01:22, 7 November 2022 (UTC) reply

More notable incidents

This page is missing a numbr of notable incidents SNITZ01 ( talk) 01:25, 5 November 2022 (UTC) reply

If you are aware of notable incidents with significant media coverage (which concern SAPOL or its officers, not just random crimes), feel free to add them! Laterthanyouthink ( talk) 06:42, 5 November 2022 (UTC) reply
I have been ;) but there may be others I'm not remembering. SNITZ01 ( talk) 07:41, 5 November 2022 (UTC) reply

Guide for notable incidents

I've noticed some indcidents that are being added to the notable incidents section that don't meet WP:NPOV guidelines. Additionally, when adding to the section, please also only add incidents that have recieved significant coverage WP:NOTTEMPORARY. SNITZ01 ( talk) 01:18, 13 November 2023 (UTC) reply

SAPOL Service Medal

This is only presented to sworn employees (current and former). As from 2 August 2008 Protective Security Officers employed under the South Australia Protective Security Act 2007 also became eligible for the SAPOL Service Medal and Clasps - as per the Commissioner’s determination dated 29 February 2019.


Not to unsworn members as indicted in the article 14.2.18.120 ( talk) 00:01, 2 December 2023 (UTC) reply

If you have a reference that meets the WP:VER policy, you should make the changes with that reference.
As a side note, the South Australia Protective Security Act 2007 is no longer in force, the police act was updated to include PSOs. SNITZ01 ( talk) 03:30, 2 December 2023 (UTC) reply
