- Support. Zarbat 10:55, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose. While the name may be more inclusive, it is not used within Australia, instead the government prefers to make use of the longer "Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander" label for both these (culturally separate) groups. Australian Aboriginal is the only common term for the native inhabitants ever used in Australia, and I've never heard/seen the phrase "Indigenous Australians" being commonly used for the aboriginals in my life. +Hexagon1 (t) 12:49, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
- Support This has been agonised over before. It was accepted as the most acceptable and least patronising title. Its not perfect-but otherwise wikipedia will be schizophrenic.Lentisco 03:52, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

- Oppose. The existing title is strongly preferred by the people whose cultures we are discussing here. Andrewa 19:07, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose. The current title works better, and there are enough redirects. A•N•N•Afoxlover hello! 16:00, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Discussion
Add any additional comments:
- please have a look at Zarbat's [1] before engaging in this. possible single issue trouble-maker?
- also hexagon's I've never heard/seen the phrase "Indigenous Australians" being commonly used for the aboriginals in my life" would seem to indicate a complete lack of knowledge of this issue. this is not an exageration. the "only common term claim" is simply false. anyone unfamiliar with subject, please proceed w/ caution → bsnowball 09:00, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
- It's said above in the survey that this has been agonised over before which I'd expect, it's been a hot topic in Australia for several decades. But where exactly is the previous discussion in Wikipedia? Andrewa 19:11, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
Fazit
No consensus for move. I suggest that Zarbat gets more people supporting him, maybe he can solicit the Wikipedia:Australian Wikipedians' notice board. / Fred-Chess 08:58, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Aboriginal art memorial at the NGA.JPG
Image:Aboriginal art memorial at the NGA.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
