Australia Project Boxes and Stickers - List of

Location: Australia

All Project Boxes and Stickers that have been approved for use in the Australia Project should have a 'Template' page that is linked up to either the Category: Australia Project Boxes or Category: Australia Project Stickers categories. These pages provide more detail about specific criteria that can be added. The information shown below does not display all the options, but is aimed at providing project members with a one stop shop of the range of options currently available. There are links to the template page for most stickers, for further information.

There are many more Wikitree stickers - see Category:Stickers. This page only lists those relevant to the Australia Project.

Stickers - Pending

•Colonial Australia - Northern Territory (NT) - needs work/decisions

Probably best considered by the CST Territories Team (when established), but may not require its own Colonial Australian sticker. Some consideration could be given to stickers for the penal colonies in NT when it was either NSW or SA. Veronica Williams 09:45, 2 April 2019 (UTC)

• Part of the Colony of New South Wales (1825-1862)

• The Colony of Northern Australia (1846-1849). This also included all of Queensland. (The end of this colony could either be 1847 or 1849 depending on how you define how it ended). Probably not worth including a sticker for this period?

• Part of the Colony of South Australia (1862 - 1910)

• Transferred to Commonwealth 1911. It is suggested we use the NT Post Federation 'Born in Australia' sticker from this time.

• Dissolved 1927

• Reformed 1931

• Torres Strait Islands (copyright issues)~

NB: This sticker should be about identity rather than where born

i.e ------ ------ is a Torres Strait Islander 09:40, 12 March 2019 (UTC)09:40, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

(Torres Strait Islanders are from both Queensland, Australia & Papua New Guinea. While there is an independence movement, this is the current status) -- Obviously many Torres Strait Islanders have also migrated to other parts of Australia.

Has any requested permission to use the flag yet? Usually, this is granted with a polite letter! I am happy to seek permission for Wikitree.

See this comment by Jo Ivinson, who uploaded the flag image: Torres Strait Islander Flag. A proposed change to the Indiginous Australians Sticker is being discussed in G2G (here). ~ 24 May 2022

• South Sea Islanders. Also has copyright issues.Veronica Williams 09:50, 2 April 2019 (UTC)

---

--------- is an Australian South Sea Islander 09:40, 12 March 2019 (UTC)09:40, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

The flag can be seen in this link (https://www.flagsaustralia.com.au/ASSI.html) More info in the G2G forum.

NOTE: Don't know who left the note willing to help? It's time stamped but not name stamped. I have decided to also leave this to the consideration of the CST - Territories Team when they are established. Veronica Williams 09:50, 2 April 2019 (UTC)

• Came Free (and other stickers associated with South Australia) . . . Province of South Australia (as many argue it was not founded with convicts, therefore was not a colony) Melanie Paul-5413 21:38, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
