how to re-write the dates bits so they read better while preserving the links to the wikipedia/May_31 pages ? I haven't read much, so I'm sure it's doable. 1813-05-11 is hard to read/scan.
and write an entry about an obscure Australian explorer onto the May-31 events page dominated by Americanisms ;-)
It was the house that was called Veteran Hall, not the 500-acre property! It was a moderately large house for its time but hardly a mansion. It is a myth that it was built with 40 rooms - it was during the army's occupation that 40 rooms were created through subdivision. Do we need a separate article about Veteran Hall?

An unregistered user has recently changed a date in this article: from On 31 May 1813, the party reached the most westerly point of their expedition to On 6 June 1813[...]. Two other edits were made at about this time from the same URL, both of which have been reverted as unhelpful, so this could be insidious vandalism. Please check this date (I don't have the cited reference). Or should we revert it first, and check it later? Verbcatcher ( talk) 20:32, 27 November 2015 (UTC)
