message: A couple of years ago I create an Australia topicon at template:WikiProject Australia topicon. It puts a small Australian flag at the top of your user, project or article talk page. When clicked on it brings you to the Australian project page.
It seems like I didn't advertise it enough - it has been marked for deletion (see Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2023_October_22#Unused_WikiProject_topicons). But if it becomes more popular then it will probably be allowed to stay.  Stepho  talk  10:59, 22 October 2023 (UTC)

message: Wikipedia guidelines say we should not categorize people "by place of death". Despite this we break down cause of death categories by country, and some Cades smaller. However not all causes if death are defining. It has been decided, although I am not sure exactly how, other than by what categories people create, that some infections disease deaths are defining. I am thinking we should categorize people by the specific disease that killed them if this is defining, and sub-divide these categories by country if we really need to split them. I do not think people should bd in more than one category that intersects place of death and cause of death. Many people from various colonies that later merged to Australia are in say Tuberculosis deaths in Australia and Infectious disease deaths in Victoria (state). I think this is excessive. In some cases people are thus in 4 death categories, year of death, century and cause of death intersection, place and cause of death intersection and then more precise place intersected with less precise cause. I think this is excessive. I really think we should list to at most 2 death related categories, 1-the year of death and 2-the cause of death, as precisely as it is logical to build a Category with as precise a location as it is reasonable to subdivide the cause of death at, and we should limit these second categories to causes of death where it is clear that it is really a defining thing. I do not think we should ever say "well, for some people this cause of death is defining, others it is not". This is not like an occupation where you can have had it for a little time, and so it is not defining for you. Your cause of death killed you, it is defining for you,so you belong in the group of people killed by it. Now some we do not know the cause of death, others it might be disputed, and some are such that it does not make sense to group people by it (the majority of articles on people who died are in only one death category, only by year of death). There might be a very few cases where 2 causes of death categories can be justified, but I would think most disputed or unclear cases of death we would just categorize by year of death. I bring this up here because the Wikipedia deaths Wikuproject is ignored, the categorization one seems little followed, and the cases I have seen most often of this excessive categories by death have related to Australia.John Pack Lambert (talk) 22:44, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

message: I'm finalising an article on Goodie Reeve, for decades the most popular radio announcer in Australia. She apparently died in 1978; if someone has access to Oz newspaper databases from the time, it would be great if you could share DoB & DoD and anything from her later life would be great, thanks!
