What I think should be changed (include citations):

- can we change the first sentence to: South Australian Lotteries (SA Lotteries), is a licensed entity that operates in South Australia as an official lotteries company.

- Suggested to be added: The license to operate lotteries in South Australia is owned by the South Australian Government and Tatts Lotteries SA Pty Ltd (Tatts) continues its appointment as the exclusive Master Agent to operate the Commission’s products and brands for a term of 40 years. SA Lotteries now markets as a jurisdictional brand under “The Lott, (which also includes Tatts, NSW Lotteries and Golden Casket)” an entity of The Lottery Corporation.

SA Lotteries is licensed to offer lottery tickets and Instant Scratch-Its to customers through a network of licensed lottery outlets. Tickets are also offered online at TheLott.com and via The Lott app. The lottery draws for Powerball, Monday and Wednesday X Lotto, Saturday X Lotto and Oz Lotto close at 7.30pm AEST and are televised on Channel Seven, five nights a week. 

- it would be suggested to have a subheading with 'history' where the 'In November 1965' starts.

- Under history section it would be recommended to added: In 2015, Tatts Group launched The Lott as a master brand that united Tatts Group’s Australian lottery brands including Tatts, NSW Lotteries, Golden Casket and SA Lotteries under one banner.  In December 2017, Tatts Group merged with Tabcorp Holdings Limited to form a diversified gambling and entertainment group under the Tabcorp brand.   In June 2022, Tabcorp's Lotteries & Keno business demerged to form The Lottery Corporation™ - the leader in the Australian lotteries and Keno market, and one of the highest performing lottery businesses globally.  There have been many changes to the SA Lotteries game portfolio over the years with some games being discontinued and other exciting new games being launched. The current portfolio includes the games of Saturday X Lotto, Monday and Wednesday X Lotto, Oz Lotto, Powerball, Super 66, Lucky Lotteries, Set for Life, Instant Scratch-Its and Keno.   

Why it should be changed:

- Since the demerger of the company, there have been significant developments that have not been reflected in the article. Updating this information will provide readers with a more comprehensive understanding of the company's current status. As someone closely involved with the company post-demerger, I've got insights and updates that are relevant and essential for maintaining the article's relevance and accuracy.
