message: Does this man not have a first name? And what is the deal with giving NO background information on him until one of the last paragraphs (ie, implying that he would be from Palestine, should such a country exist).- Laikalynx 02:19, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Added info on background (though no first name). Janet13 02:48, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Can't work out who Godwin is. Anybody know? Clappingsimon talk 05:59, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Phillippa Godwin, a department secretary, but I see you've already found that and added it in! I didn't include it originally because she wasn't a party personally, only on behalf of the department. --bainer (talk) 02:46, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Who's Godwin?

message: After reading this article, I wanted to know what happened to Al-Kateb - is he still in detention?  Can someone write an article on him giving more information?
Also, has Australian immigration law been amended to clarify its application to stateless persons?  If so, a mention of this should be added to this article.

replies: text: See the "consequences" section. Al-Kateb and eight other people were granted special bridging visas from the government in late 2004, following public pressure. This means he was no longer in detention. The last available information on him, that I am aware of, is from mid 2005. --bainer (talk) 13:32, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: What happened next?

message: The edit summary only allow so much. 
http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/cases/cth/high_ct/219clr562.html is 404ing, so removing. Replacing bottom link for that with http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/cases/cth/HCA/2004/37.html which seems to have same info. 
In wiki code, I removed  from the citations in the infobox, and replaced  with  which accounts for many references. I checked 2 and both were in there, though one had an extra word in a quote I'll change in a minute. 
I'm curious how a link can disappear so fast, though. Balsa10 10:24, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Explaining edit

message: I've just changed the Arabic version of the defendant's name from  (Kateb Ahmed), added by EamonnPKeane, to   (Ahmed Al-Kateb) based on references in the article, but this isn't based on any direct knowledge of the case, the defendant, or the Arabic language. If anyone knows for sure what the name should be, please add it to the article. Also, if you know what you're about and you think that Ahmed looks better with a hamza on the alif, feel free to add it. Tesseran 03:28, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Name in Arabic

message: Reading over this page I'm a bit surprised Hayne J's infamous judgment was not discussed further. His seeming opposition to the decision in the Communist Party Case sticks in my mind as one of the most bewildering opinions I've read from a High Court Justice, and it seems to me like a short discussion in the Academic Response section would be appropriate. Thoughts?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.89.163.157 (talk) 13:26, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: The article needs to be updated because immigration detention continues to be a public policy issue in Australia with more court cases that have referred back to this case. A search of AUSTLII shows lots of journal articles in the last 15 years have commented on this case in relation to subsequent similar cases Bumbubookworm (talk) 05:41, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  FA concerns 

message: Another case seeking to overturn this decision, NZYQ vs Minister for Immigration, has just been decided. I can't find the judgement pdf yet, but news articles say this has "overturned" al-Kateb.  I've added a short sentence to the end of the lead, but obviously more information will be needed once the judgement can be examined. Also, I'd say this new decision would need its own article.
