This should really be about the person Bennelong that the electorate is named after rather than the electorate
Yes, this is tre. Did you know, I'm doing a school report on an Aboriginal Australian who lived before 1900, Bennelong is the only one i can find, and there is barely any information on him. I need to write about his life and his experiences, and i can't find any.
there shold be more information on bennelong. I've seen much more.

That is my point. If you do not think the information belongs in that article, create the new one. I have noticed that you have a tendency to revert or delete information. This is vandalism WP:VAN. I am making the change once more. Please do not vandalise my edits. If you disagree, create the new disambiguated page. Tim.Boyle 13:30, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
I removed the idea that Philip was speared, "most likely as payback for the kidnappings." [1]
Watkin Tench who witnessed the spearing says that it was by someone who lived up at broken bay (far away), and that Benalong was not pleased. Let's not pollute this with politically correct revisionism.

In the third line of this section, "conscientiously" sounds like the motive was wholly or predominantly moral - which seems improbable, although not impossible. I propose to substitute "carefully". Errantios ( talk) 03:29, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
