no power to overrule them. The '67 Ref fixed that. The '67 referendum effectively made it compulsory for individual Aboriginals to answer the Census, and that total numbers be counted for seats and cutoff quotas in the Senate. The colonial Censes, starting in 1841, did attempt to estimate the numbers of Aboriginals in each district by asking farmers to estimate the numbers on their property. In 1901 most natives were still living nomadic lives and thus the electoral commision was alleviated of the chore of tracking them down at census time. Other conspiracy theories naming QLD and WA as the reason for exclusion from the Census, are just humbug. If that was the case, Tasmania would not have been given 10 senators, as it was and still is the most inequitable part of the Constitution.

referendum, the only section that had "any present operational importance" to section 127 was section 24. Indigenous Australians were already represented in the census information prior to the referendum as the second source which can be accessed details. Whilst not specifically referring to section 51(xi), it details the census information collected on Aborigines from 1925-1944 under 51(xi). From Arcioni "Section 127 meant that 'full-blood aborigines' were excluded when determining the number of 'the people' for specific constitutional calculations" but it "did not impose a limitation on the census power of the Commonwealth in the sense of prohibiting an enumeration of Indigenous Australians".

which allowed for special legislation to be made for Aboriginal People and excluded them from the Census. It is true that many people (including Ms Burney) will refer to a Flora and Fauna Act that was repealed in 1967. In fact, these are two different things. The Flora and Fauna Act was not Australia-wide, but is the name of state of New South Wales (NSW) legislation. In fact, this particular piece of legislation, Aboriginal culture and heritage was managed by the same branches of government that dealt with National Parks, flora, fauna, etc. In fact, this particular governing practice was only recently repealed!
1654:, then surely that should be the title of this article instead then instead of this one? If not, then surely the title should reflect today's terminology and linguistics since it's not a proper noun then? And in terms of the cultural and social material generated, well, over 50 years ago, that doesn't necessarily mean that the terminology used in them is reflective of today's terminology. While I understand the importance of historical context, that's what we detail in the article's content, not the article's title - otherwise you'd be calling the article on 255: 325: 134: 2528:", so using the former is pointless - the article is already titled "... Aboriginal ..." (with "Australian" implied by Australian referendum), not "particular Aboriginal racial sub-group". A reference that defines "Aboriginal" to mean "... Aboriginal ..." without mentioning Indigenous or Torres Strait Islander people tells us nothing in the context of the original question of "does 'Aboriginal' in the Constitution / referendum question include other Indigenous or Torres Strait Islander people?" 2602:
Menzies era. Changing the name away from the historical terms used in the legislation would be a mistake. Given appropriate wording in the article, none of our readers are going to be confused or misled. Reframing historical events in modern language loses some of the flavour and impact of the times. This was a big deal at the time, and diluting the impact as if those Australians of 1967 held the views and hindsight of those of us in 2020 and (hopefully) beyond, diminishes the significance.
1823:
Representatives doesn't have any evidence. Of the two references in the paragraph, the first one makes no mention of the referendum being a mechanism for the sole purpose of increasing seats in the House, and the second source can't be accessed, so I'll be removing that claim. Anyways, I don't see how my apparent oversight of the fact that the referendum repealed parts of the Constitution plays into this RM - the outcome, Indigenous representation in the Census, is the same.
231: 2623:. As far as I can see, the principal argument for the status quo, is that the term "Aboriginals" was used in the official name of the document from the 1960s. What a load of cobblers. We don't form our disambiguators by cherry picking dated terms from the official name. Either use the official name in its entirety, or choose a disambiguator which reflects modern usage. In this case it's appropriate to do the latter which also brings 383: 365: 1658:. "the final solution" because that was its historical cultural context (excuse the rather extreme example, but I think it's the most effective in what I'm saying). On a secondary note, and as exemplified by my discussion above, "Aboriginals" isn't really appropriate here in describing the population groups subject to the change, since Aboriginal Australians are those with familial heritage to mainland Australia, while 148: 99: 759:
to deny a great deal of Australia's more negative colonizing history. Having said that, when people make these errors, the spirit of what they are attempting to convey is, in my view, essential accurate: ie, that Aboriginal people were treated as subhuman under Australian legislation and that 1967's referendum was a key step in overcoming that constitutional, and therefore, policy discrimination.
158: 21: 303: 127: 68: 2486:, so I don't really see where the issue is. The Chief Justice's deliverance was still presented in 1983, meaning that the cultural assumptions and assumptions of the time are still represented in his linguistics, which is why the modern interpretation is included as corroboratory evidence for the claim. Anyways, what I would imagine to be the crux element is 1625:". Aboriginal Australians is called that to disambiguate it from the indigenous people of other places. In what way will it improve wikipedia by duplicating Australian? If we were looking to reflect appropriate language I would be supporting a reference to first people or first nations, but that would separate the referendum from its historical context. -- 344: 725:
Indigenous people and they were not to be counted in the census for fear of distorting numbers. Just because they were 'British subjects' does not mean they were 'citizens of Australia'. You also have the Commonwealth Franchise Act 1902 which specifically excluded Indigenous people from the vote. Then there's these comments by Linda Burney -
279: 2217:— Is there any reliable source that calls it the "Indigenous referendum"? Everything I've seen refers to it as "Aboriginal", because that's what it called at the time. Yes I know the terminology has changed, but we are talking about a specific historical event that - so far as I can tell - is generally referred to its historical name. 763:
paternalistic language that depicted them as in need of care or protection, or filed this special legislation alongside parks, wildlife, natural resources type legislation, implying that Aboriginal people were subhuman and merely a part of the natural landscape (Aborigines and Fisheries Department (WA, till mid 1920s).

uniformly or federally. In New South Wales, for instance, Indigenous Australian hunting and land use rights, as well as their material culture, were managed under a wider National Parks portfolio; this practice only gained attention in 2009 and a process for its reversal was initiated the following year.
758:
It is becoming a truism, then, to say there was a national "Flora and Fauna Act" and this statement is often followed by the statement that this "Act" was revealed in 1967. This is a bit confused. I do think people need to get their facts straight, as when we don't it allows the right wing historians
724:
This relates to the above discussion as well, but according to this source Indigenous people were considered Flora and Fauna. The argument is that the citizenship of Indigenous people made them no different to Flora and Fauna, as the government had no power under s 51 to pass legislation relating to

I'm starting to feel like we're just going in circles, so I'm going to step away from this discussion and let someone impartial close this discussion eventually, but I did want to just reply to this.

2173:
I totally get your point, but if I understand the outcomes of the referendum correctly, didn't it end with Indigenous Australians being represented as part of the population in the Census of Population and Housing? If "representation" is the issue (which I can understand), what about something along

Well, the Act and the bill are the same - the bill is the text submitted to Parliament, the Act is the bill once passed. And if you really wanted to preserve consistency, you'll note that the only change is in the subject between the brackets. And on the Act, this article about the second element of

Both the Referendum question and the Act involved referred to "Aboriginals" and "People of the Aboriginal Race" (Not Aboriginal Australians). So it could be argued we should be retaining that language. However, in the half century since, language has definitely changed, so I would support the move.

In WW1 and WW2 aboriginals did join the military, and citizenship was a requirement. The 1901 Constitution did define citizenship and Aboriginals always were citizens, despite the claims by Henry Reynolds and his idiot mate Looes. State govts were less charitable in native policies. The Fed govt had

Therefore, what your Kiwi friends were trying to say was essentially accurate in spirit: before 1967 (and arguably at certain moments afterward) Aboriginal people were regulated under special legislation that only applied to them. This was a means of controlling Aboriginal people and often contained

Then came the 1967 referendum, when Australians voted to extend full citizenship to Aborigines. Now, just days before the 40th anniversary of that vote, Ms Burney has described the referendum as a high tide in both the nation's history and her own - the moment when her status was elevated from fauna
2740:. The vast majority of articles on national referendums combine questions asked on the same day in a single article, and the proposed article title would not be problematic.

Aboriginals were permitted the right to vote before the 1967 referendum, it was only under the condition that they "signed a piece of paper that said that they denied their Aboriginal decent and then they were permitted to vote". I think this is an important quantification that should be commented

PBA, thank you for Talking. 1. It is a fact that the 1967 referendum came about after and largely due to a long political campaign by (how else to characterise them?) activists. What may have happened on some other issue is irrelevant. 2. There was a campaign for land and other rights such as to

I don't see how it is exceptional and objectionable that Aboriginal heritage items have been dealt with under the National Parks Act in NSW when these items are in national parks. This seems to be a circular argument. If there was something like a "Flora and Fauna Act" that governed Aborigines,

Ahh... I've corrected the name of the legislation to "Constitution Alteration (Aboriginals) 1967" and referenced it. I agree that the language of the article title is outdated, but to make it (say) "Aborigines" or "Aboriginal people" would create a question-begging inconsistency. We would also

I have no idea what that is refering to. The Citzenship Act (1947) contained no racial exclusions and indigenous Australians were therefore Australian citizens from that date. They had previously been, like all other Australians, British subjects. Until the 1960s, however, they continued to be
