We should consider the scope of the list. How early does someone have to exist to be considered "historical"?

If we keep post-colonisation people who are not infamous or the last of their communities - eg Eddie Mabo (1936–1992) - we should update the lead paragraph to include them. (Currently the lead paragraph mentions only colonisation, infamy, last of their community.) Mitch Ames ( talk) 09:45, 8 January 2024 (UTC) reply
