Shit[edit]

I broke this page. Can someone help? Charlie Sanders (talk) 02:08, 14 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Travel expenses controversy[edit]

I have edited this passage which seems to be the subject of a bit of an edit war. There are two references, neither of which accuse McKenzie of unlawful actions or quote anyone doing so, nor any link between these circumstances and those of Mal Colston or Peter Slipper (which is not referenced at all). This is clearly inappropriate POV synthesis. --Canley (talk) 00:50, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The whole article is frankly crap at the moment. It's just one long controversy section. There's paragraphs on random minor issues and we don't even have a full sourced sentence on the fact that she's the deputy leader of the third largest political party in the country. Ivar the Boneful (talk) 15:18, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You're not wrong. McKenzie is a controversial figure and much of it is notable in some form, but the lack of much balance and that ridiculous lead section are a big problem. The Drover's Wife (talk) 19:42, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Well done on the rewrite, for what it's worth. Much improved. The Drover's Wife (talk) 20:53, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, thanks for the rewrite, much better! --Canley (talk) 04:00, 19 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protect request (02/02/2020)[edit]

News is coming about this minister, with her resignation from her ministerial portfolio. We should semi-protect the article to stop vandals from non-confirmed edits. Tytrox (talk) 06:07, 2 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Update (27/10/2023)[edit]

I have updated this page to include a section on Bridget McKenzie's recent career in Opposition. Please reply with any thoughts or suggestions for improving these edits. Thanks Willw1193 (talk) 06:00, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A good idea to include that content. I have slightly modified it make a little more neutral. HiLo48 (talk) 07:00, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I like those edits. Willw1193 (talk) 10:18, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Update (20/11/2023)[edit]

I have expanded the 'In Opposition' section and created a dedicated 'Qantas Inquiry' subheading. The Qantas Inquiry has appeared (at least to me) McKenzie's highest profile activity since the Coalition lost government. As such, I am of the view that it should constitute a distinct section with its own subheading. Any suggestions for improvement are very welcome Willw1193 (talk) 23:28, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Voice Referendum paragraph under Politics section[edit]

Should a section on McKenzie's opposition to the Voice be included under the Politics section? Currently this section concludes with the Australian Marriage Law Postal Survey which was conducted 7 years ago. Willw1193 (talk) 04:03, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
