[edit] Comment

need larger article for such a big thing in Australian history.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 211.31.189.177 (talk • contribs) 16:06, 11 July 2005 (UTC+10 hours)

[edit] Deleted in-article critique

With the gold rushes came the construction of the first railways and telegraph line, multiculturalism and racism, the Eureka rebellion and the end of penal transportation to the east coast of Australia. *Please revise. These elements can't be attributed to the gold rush, they're merely circumstantial. The histiography used here is flawed; it resembles high school history. [1]

Please consider revising the article. Htra0497 19:59, 15 November 2006 (AEST)
