Change the name

[edit]

The article name should be change to Constitution of New South Wales, Constitution Act 1902 doesn't make sense unless you read the article

Citing References

[edit]

Given the article is a piece of Australian Legislation, is AGLC4 the most appropriate method of referencing sources? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Studentofacademia (talkcontribs) 06:36, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Studentofacademia: welcome to wikipedia. The answer is sort of - inspired by is probably closer. If you look at the Manual of Style/Legal in the section Australia it expressly refers to Australian Guide to Legal Citation. Being an online encyclopedia though means aspects, such as repeated footnotes, have little relevance & so you are trying to meld the wikipedia style with the guide. The easiest way to cite Australian legislation is using AustLII & the template:cite Legislation AU & for cases template:cite AustLII. An example of using cite AustLII is {{cite AustLII|HCA|3|1931|litigants=Attorney-General (NSW) v Trethowan |link=Attorney-General (New South Wales) v Trethowan |parallelcite=[http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/cases/cth/HCA/1931/3.pdf (1931) 44 CLR 394] |courtname=[[High Court of Australia|High Court]]}} which shows as Attorney-General (New South Wales) v Trethowan [1931] HCA 3, (1931) 44 CLR 394, High Court. The only reference in this article uses a different form, but as its a stub, that can change and anyone who has the time to expand it should use a consistent form. Let me know if you have a specific question. --Find bruce (talk) 10:09, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
