message: The Geoscience Australia website offers a distance calculator. It is a bit hard to use but can be considered the authoritative authority on distances. It puts the distance between Wittenoom and Perth at 1106 km, rather than the 1644 km listed here. I will correct. Snottygobble 04:48, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I cannot read the referenced journal article to check, but the first paragraph of the section called Legacy is almost identical to the info shown about the article on the website with the article. I don’t know which came first: the info, the section, nor if the section also largely appears in the article. Betterkeks (talk) 16:41, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
