Cleanup.[edit]

Removed POV sentences, including one external link, and material duplicated from (and more proper to) the main SDA entry. (211.29.117.5 13:59, 21 October 2007 (UTC))[reply]

Not sure why de Bruyn's opposition to same-sex marriage was deleted. I wouldn't categorise that as a "clean-up". Information was cited. In fact, it was the only cited information in the entire article. So I just restored it again.--Lester 21:37, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

On 01:39, 1 December 2007 I accidentally reverted Prester John's previous revert. I did not intend to revert, and must have accidentally hit the Twinkle revert button. However, I still disagree with the previous deletion that occurred.Lester 02:17, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've expanded the article. Many more references. Added line on ALP female MP quota, and de Bruyn's quote. Whitlam's quote re-added, as coming from the grand elder statesman of the ALP, Whitlam's unusual criticism of another prominent ALP figure is notable.Lester 23:19, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Gough Whitlam described him as a "Dutchman who hates dykes". Pretty funny. 137.111.13.200 (talk) 05:21, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
