Assessment comments
The following comments were left by the assessors: (edit · history · watch · refresh)
The article is written by two different people with conflicting opinions. The first paragraph does not inform the rest of the article. Either a corroboree means ceremony or the word describes performances which are not ceremonial. There is much confusion here because in the english literature on ceremonial and non ceremonial Australian performances by traditional owners the use of corroboree has, in the past, been used to describe both ceremony and non-ceremonial performance. This is not helped by the wikipedia article on corroboree. The importance of this distinction is the respect shown for ceremonial law business, which is only for the respective elders to discuss. Corroboree, at least today, means for everyone - men, women and children.58.110.180.175 12:40, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "more widely inclusive than theatre or opera"
That's debatable, at the very least, especially with regard to theatre, which in some cultures can be as inclusive as you get with everyone taking part in some way! 81.158.3.105 00:36, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
