Talk:Karlu Karlu / Devils Marbles Conservation Reserve

"Popular Culture"
Is this section really necessary, with only one entry? The book itself only mentions the place for a page or so! AncientToaster (talk) 09:04, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Kaytetye?
The article says


 * The boulders are located in a traditional Aboriginal sacred site and are important to the local tribe. The Arrernte people believe that the boulders are the eggs of the rainbow serpent. Over time, the ceremonies and stories related to the Devil's Marbles have largely been lost, but the site is still very important to the tribe and may be considered to be amongst the oldest religious sites in the world.

Aren't the Devil's Marbles in Kaytetye country, not Arrernte? Dougg 03:18, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

Please if you have correct knowledge of the tribal situation change the text. Lentisco 06:35, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

Official Spelling without the apostrophe?
See here: http://www.nt.gov.au/nreta/parks/find/devilsmarbles.html

And here's a letter to a Dutch Wikipedia member who asked about the spelling:


 * The official spelling is "Devils Marbles Conservation Reserve" without the apostrophe. Apostrophes are as a general rule not to be used in place names and so also park names with the exception of "John Flynn's Grave Historical Reserve", as this is actually the grave of this person.

KMZ
I had trouble finding this place in Google Earth (not much to see mind you). But at the end I've found a KMZ file pointing to the place. I would like to upload it and link to it in Wikipedia but I don't know if that's possible.

Natural?
Have the rocks always been like that, stood up, or were they put like that by man? The article ought to clarify. Yeanold Viskersenn 04:36, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

 * I repeat the question - it is not in Australian popular culture I think it should be removed - as it attracts unnecessary additions SatuSuro 05:51, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
