Western Australian of the Year Awards - given on WA Day long weekend?

I'd like to note on both Western Australian of the Year Awards and Western Australia Day that the former are awarded on the long weekend of the latter - that being my memory of the matter - but I can't find a reference that says this (other than the first one in 1973). Does anybody know of a reference that explicitly links the two? Mitch Ames (talk) 03:30, 1 June 2015 (UTC)

Try http://www.celebratewa.com.au/awards/gala-dinner-presentation/ User:JarrahTree 06:27, 1 June 2015 (UTC)

That covers this year, but I'm looking for something that says the award is presented on every WA Day long weekend (treating Friday night as part of the weekend).

Buckleys - all government web sites deny anything like archives - all the web masters seem to think we all live today and are not interested in yesterday - User:JarrahTree 07:13, 1 June 2015 (UTC)

A search through archives - checking every year since 1973 - would probably constitute WP:OR. What I was hoping to find was something like the WA equivalent of this quote from the Australian of the Year Awards: "... the announcement of the national award recipients in Canberra on Australia Day Eve."

RFCs - Aboriginal communities in Western Australia

Editors are requested to comment at:

• Talk:Aboriginal communities in Western Australia#Rfc: Should the article include a statement about the number of communities and the number of residents?
• Talk:Aboriginal communities in Western Australia#Rfc: Should the article include a statement to the effect that 99% of the population of the communities are in remote areas?

A star amongst us

The only remaining question is which of the Hemsworth brothers will play the part of the intrepid photographer in the Hollywood blockbuster, The Hunt for the Rare Banksia, and its sequel, Dude, Where's My Boot!. Nice work Mr G. The-Pope (talk) 10:21, 3 June 2015 (UTC)
