Some of the Australian Project team are reviewing the categories for Australian Politicians which falls under Australia, Notables. This work was started last year and has been in a hiatus awaiting comments. We are now picking up where that left off. See https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Australian_Notables for the section under Australia, Politicians.
Australia, Politicians is a top level category and should not have any profiles in it. It is a subcategory of [Australia, Notables], [Australia, Occupations and Professions], [Australia, Political History] and [Oceania, Politicians]
Australia, Politicians will have three subcategories which are top level categories that should not have profiles attached. They are [Australia, Federal Politicians], [Australia, State Politicians] and [Australia, Local Government Councillors]
These first two subcategories are then subdivided by House, eg [Australia, Members of the House of Representatives] or [Western Australia, Senators]. See the Australian Notables space above for details.
It’s quite complex.
For Local Government it is simply the State/Territory, Locality Councillors.
