Talk:List of Noongar sites in the City of Melville

Scope[edit]

The article title is "List of Noongar sites ..." but the lead sentence says "list of significant Whadjuk Noongar sites". So far as I can tell Whadjuk is a subset of Noongar, so either:

  • The article title should be "List of Whadjuk sites ..."

or

  • The lead sentence should be "list of significant Noongar sites". In this case it might be appropriate to have a separate section or table for Whadjuk, Ballardong, sites etc.

(As a side note, I'd like to remove the two adjacent links for "Whadjuk Noongar" in the lead sentence, but the best way to do that will depend on the scope of the article.)

According to [1], the City of Melville sits within the cultural region of the Beeliar people, who are apparently (according to Whadjuk#Contact history) a subset of Whadjuk - so presumably any sites within Melville would be Whadjuk, and thus presumably the article ought be renamed to the more specific "List of Whadjuk sites ...".

This edit should clarify the connection between "Whadjuk" and "Noongar". Note that the first two references (which list the sites) do not mention Whadjuk at all.
