Usually under the radar
[edit]These sort of changes often fly past quickly:
and because of that
I personally would consider the reverse would be most relevant, but curious what others think as there is a collection:
There are probably more, but the variant spellings show a lack of consistency, it would be well worth some milhist editors actually offering their opinion, as from a purely wikipedia concept of consistency there is nothing to show which is the more appropriate

[edit]Andrew Fisher has been nominated for a good article reassessment. If you are interested in the discussion, please participate by adding your comments to the reassessment page. If concerns are not addressed during the review period, the good article status may be removed from the article. Z1720 (talk) 12:48, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
I created the 2024 in Australian television list article in January, but unlike the 2024 in British television article, not many Wikipedia editors (excluding me and occasionally @Mr Sitcom) are editing the 2024 in Australian television article. Wikipedia thinks the articles that I create are not picked up by search results, that is why not many people are editing the Wikipedia article for the list of events that happened in Australian television in 2024.

Deletion discussion for Settler colonialism in Australia
[edit]I have nominated the aforementioned stub article for deletion and in order to ensure there is a discussion or at least a break in the deadlock I wish to inform editors here. Cheers, Will Thorpe (talk) 04:53, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

Indigenous Australian artists vs Australian Aboriginal artists
[edit]Is there a difference between this categories? Category:Indigenous Australian artists and Category:Australian Aboriginal artists. LibStar (talk) 23:48, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
- Indigenous is a broader term, including Torres Straight Islanders and other people born in Australia. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 23:56, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks LibStar (talk) 00:16, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- So all people currently in Category:Indigenous Australian artists, except Alick Tipoti and Ken Thaiday Snr, ought to be in Category:Australian Aboriginal artists? -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 00:32, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- No, I think the other way around. LibStar (talk) 01:18, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- According to WP:CATSPECIFIC, subjects ought to placed into the most specific category. If Category:Indigenous Australian artists is the broader category and Category:Australian Aboriginal artists the more specific, my suggestion is valid. Whether a Category:Torres Strait Islander artists is needed, IMO it is, is a different matter. I can't see why a person should be in both. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 05:17, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- Presumably if they have both ancestries and are part of both communities? 5225C (talk • contributions) 05:21, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

- 1. Should Category:Indigenous Australian artists also have a subcat Category:Torres Strait Islander artists?
- 2. If so, how should artists of both Aboriginal and TSI descent be categorised? Dual catted?
- 3. Who would be considered Australian "indigenous" but not Aboriginal and/or TSI? (Are there any artists who should appear at the top level Category:Indigenous Australian artists?)
- 4. Ellen José is currently listed under Category:Australian Aboriginal artists, but I can't see that she fits that cat -- she is of TSI and overseas descent. There may be other TSI artists similarly (mis?)categorised.

- Good points. Agree with point 1. LibStar (talk) 02:19, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- I would suggest: (1) Yes. (2) Yes, dual-categorised. (3) Likely only artists who have not specified which group they belong to. 5225C (talk • contributions) 05:28, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
