  • Regarding equating this with the Pulitzer prize: Who has often considered them equivalent? Perhaps the sentence needs rewording. Regardless of POV, this fact still needs a citation to show it is indeed regarded as Autralia's top literary award. Please read verifiability. Frexes 15:56, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
If you want to cite the bleeding obvious, feel free to waste your own time - I don't imagine it'd be hard to find. Otherwise, please leave the article alone. Rebecca 04:58, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I have added the citations myself. It may be surprising you, but there are people who are not from Australia: this is not "bleeding obvious" to them. Indeed many will never have heard of these awards. As it states in the Wikipedia guidelines, facts that are of the sort "I heard it somewhere/It's common knowledge (...amongst a select group)" should be removed, or given citation. Please also remember Wikipedia etiquette and try to stay cool. Thanks! Frexes 14:01, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
"They can be regarded as the Australian equivalent of the Pulitzer Prize." The first citation is from the organisation itself, which is not an independent source, and the second citation doesn't even mention the Pulitzer. Like any award, there will be a diversity of views on its worth. I don't think it adds anything to the article to include the organisation's self-congratulatory assessment of itself as if it's a NPOV statement --GuyIncognito (talk) 03:22, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Should the categories be listed in a table?[edit]

The categories section is very long. I wonder if it would be better listed in 2 columns. I'm not sure how to do that. Maybe a table? 124.168.21.24 06:51, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Controversy is overdone[edit]

It may have been a good idea at the time, but the section on the Milne-Mayne 2006 fracas is given far too much weight to the overall detriment of the article, and needs to be heavily pruned. I'm prepared to do this after giving folk a chance to disagree. Cheers Bjenks (talk) 10:29, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree entirely - I don't think it even warrants mentioning at all here, considering how long the Walkley Awards have been occurring, unless a greatly expanded history section magically appears at some point in the future. Bump it all off to the Glenn Milne article. Rebecca (talk) 10:49, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
