Changes
I've attempted make some changes in order to ensure the page uses non-racist language, partially capitalization of 'Aboriginal' and have made use of 'Aboriginal people' rather than 'Aborigines'. I also removed the reference to alcohol contributing to the decline in population. Not denying is was a contributing factor, I just want to find a citation before putting it back in.

Reversions of edits made by 203.54.186.83
- I have reverted edits made by 203.54.186.83 (talk · contribs) who was at the time breaching a block. He has been advised that logging in and editing while blocked is a breach of policy at Talk:Gundagai, New South Wales. He has definitely seen the advice and is aware of its implications. As per Misplaced Pages:Blocking policy#Evasion of blocks: Edits made by blocked users while blocked may be reverted. Further commentary about my actions can be made on my talk page or at the Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/203.54.*.* which I have filed.--A Y Arktos\ 00:25, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
Name meaning
As inappropriate as the manner in which this anon has contested the meaning of "Wiradjuri" is, I have to agree with him/her that it probably does not mean "people of the three rivers". Most peoples in the area are named after their word for "no" (e.g. Kamilaroi word for "no" is "kamil"). The Wiradjuri word for "no" happens to be wirrai, which confirms my suspicion. --Ptcamn 14:42, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
- No problem, cite your source. The source, for the present meaning is I think Norman Tindale who is quite possibly mistaken but definitely an authority. There are no doubt more up to date sources. As of this morning the link to the Tindale page referenced in the article is down. However, the NSW National Parks and Wildlife service gives Wiradjuri means 'people of the three rivers', these rivers being the Macquarie, Lachlan and Murrumbidgee and they are citing a printed publication: Heritage Office (HO) and Department of Urban Affairs and Planning (DUAP) 1996. Regional Histories: Regional Histories of New South Wales. Sydney. --A Y Arktos\ 21:00, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
Semi-protection
I have semiprotected this articles as per the discussion at Talk:Gundagai, New South Wales:
- I will similarly semi-protect any related articles if I notice any abusive edits being carried out from the same IP range - abusive edits refers to the tone of the edit summary as well as the actual edit itself.
- All editors should be aware of Misplaced Pages policies and guidelines, specifically: No original research, Verifiability, No personal attacks, Civility and Etiquette. Any editors breaching any of the policies will be blocked and their contributions reverted.
- Recommencing editing in less than the block period is a breach of the Blocking policy.
- All editors have also been put on notice that comments on talk pages should be signed. Unsigned comments may be reverted.
Any comments about the semiprotection should be directed to the relevant Request for Comment.--A Y Arktos\ 21:00, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
Reversions of edits including talk comments
- Please also note all unsigned comments and/ or comments made by editors breaching a block will be reverted. Blocking policy states:
- While blocked, a user is not permitted to edit any pages other than their own talk page. Sysops may reset the blocks of users who intentionally use various tactics to evade a block, and may extend the original blocks if the user commits further blockable acts. Accounts and IPs used in evading a block may also be blocked appropriately. Edits made by blocked users while blocked may be reverted.
- Sign your posts on talk pages supported by Help:Talk page states You should sign your contributions by typing three or four tildes. Although this is only a guideline, coupled with the regular incivility shown by this editor, I will enforce this guideline by reverting every unsigned comment or inappropriate edit that breaches WP:NPA or WP:Civil. Despite her protestations to the contrary, she is knowingly breaching blocks - she has been blocked repeatedly for a week at a time, escalated from first 3 hour to then 24 hour blocks and more recently 1 week blocks.--A Y Arktos\ 21:48, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
