The article failed at FAC, right? Andjam 10:49, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
I removed a reference to the Aboriginal inhabitants being 'Stone Age' Was this reference included by someone from 1800?
Can someone verify the walking trail section in regards to Long Ridge Track. My understanding is that Long Ridge track is on the other side of Waterfall Gully Road and nowhere near the SE Freeway. If no verifiable reference is given, next time I come by, I will remove references to Long Ridge Track. I think it is an error, perhaps the author thinks the Bullock Track has two names?

I don't believe the statement about the Kaurna population of Adelaide belongs on this page (maybe Kaurna), but I didn't want to move it (or indeed delete it) straightaway, as I have not checked Amery.
Firstly, what's this "census"? Secondly, the ref apparently gives an 1852 population of 650, "steadily decreasing."
The Kaurna page gives an 1856 population (also referenced) of 180. The cited source is an e-book, but it gives an interesting table (see Chapter 1: The Kaurna), sourced as "Compiled by M. Moorhouse and extracted from the Appendix attached to The Legislative Council Select Committee, (1860) Report on the Aborigines, Paper 167, SA Govt Printer." The table gives estimated (i.e., not census) populations year-by-year from 1841 to 1856. The figure of 650 apparently applies to 1841, with a "steady" attrition rate of about 30 per year.
Is someone in a position easily to check what Amery actually says? Pingku ( talk) 10:43, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
I think we need a new image. The one provided is: (1) copyrighted, (2) not salient to any aspect specific to Mount Osmond (it's just a pretty picture) and (3) was not even taken at Mount Osmond (the source website says it was taken at Waterfall Gully). Pingku ( talk) 10:42, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
The file containing the picture of goats is called "Osmond sheep.jpg". In the thumbnail it's hard to tell, but in the larger version they do look more like goats, at least to my untrained eye. :) In any case, "Osmond sheep" (or even "Osmond goats") is way ambiguous, given the global nature of Wikipedia.
