Talk:History of Australia

message: Hello all
I have significantly expanded this section, I have added sub-headings  on the Home Front and the Paris Peace Conference for clarity. I have also summarised some information to remove detail which is already in daughter articles. I have replaced inadequately sourced information with sourced information. Happy to discuss.Aemilius Adolphin (talk) 06:24, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: That might be getting a bit long, especially as we have good-quality articles on various aspects of Australia's involvement in the war. The article as a whole probably has too much material on military and political history (I say as someone who mainly edits on both topics!). Nick-D (talk) 08:26, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for your work. The addition is well written but I tend to agree with the other Nick. (I speak from experience. I spent a lot of time on this article a few years ago and found it very difficult to get the balance right). Cheers Nickm57 (talk) 12:20, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  Thanks for the feedback. I'll go back to it later and trim some of the detail. I think the section on the inter-war years also needs some trimming so I will have a go at paring them both back. --Aemilius Adolphin (talk) 22:00, 5 November 2021 (UTC)

message: I replaced the word "story" in the lead sentence with "history". I'm sure there's a better way to word the lead sentence, but I had to get "story" outta there. Masterhatch (talk) 14:41, 12 September 2023 (UTC)

replies: text:  Why?  Would you mind explaining how this would improve the article? Nickm57 (talk) 00:42, 26 November 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: The first film contains a very well illustrated „short history“ since 1860. It is usefull for all readers, not only the young ones.Fr23456 (talk) 18:19, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I have placed a welcome with links to useful articles on the wikipedia project on your talk page. Please take some time to read these. Of special interest might be the guidelines around what constitutes a reliable source. This will give you an idea why there are no TV documentaries listed here - or in most other articles.

thread_title:  History by historic filmmaterials

message: The establishment of the colonial settlements in the article should reflect their historical chronological order, so Queensland should follow Tasmania, Western Australia next, Victoria, and finally South Australia.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.63.186.170 (talk) 00:06, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
thread_title:   Chronological order of settlements

message: I just restarted on Wikipedia with a new account so I am not able to edit this article yet. Just FYI: The German battleship Emden mentioned and linked at the beginning of the chapter about the First World War was built in the early 1920s and therefore cannot be the "Emden" the article wants to refer to. 172.58.109.207 (talk) 09:49, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
