Congratulations, and thank you today for John Tonkin ↗, "about Australian politician John Tonkin. This is my first featured article candidate for a politician and, if successful, would by my longest featured article yet. Tonkin was the longest serving member of the Parliament of Western Australia, at 44 years, and was the premier of Western Australia for three years. My main sources are the Australian Dictionary of Biography's entry on Tonkin and a book by Peter Kennedy, supplemented with newspapers from Trove and the Australian Political Chronicle in the Australian Journal of Politics and History."! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:52, 3 March 2026 (UTC)

"Federation seat" in Joel Fitzgibbon article

Hello Steelkamp,
I'm following my edit of "In 2015 the Australian Electoral Commission announced plans to abolish the federation seat of Hunter as part of a redistribution", in which I changed "federation" to federal", and your response to it: "not a typo, "federation seat" means it was one of the original seats created in 1901".

I readily admit my ignorance of that usage. I doubt whether many people are aware of it either. It isn't explained anywhere in the article, nor in the article titled "Electoral system of Australia". My suggestion, therefore, is that you insert a note explaining the term -- something like "... an electoral division (federal electorate) that has existed continuously since the federation of the Australian colonies in 1901" would also cover the significance of 1901 -- and a reference supporting it.
