He was the most widely known Aborigine in Australia
What does "making an attempt to provide a separate territory for Aboriginals in Central and Northern Australia" mean? Did he actively promote a rebellion, lobby for an indignenous reserve, or what? 124.197.15.138 ( talk) 06:28, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
Are we able to describe his interest in perpetual motion in less romantic terms? In an encyclopedic article, it seems unsound to describe investigations into perpetual motion as an attempt to harness its secrets. There's good reason that the mainstream position is that perpetual motion offers nothing that can be harnessed. Of course there's nothing wrong with maintaining an interest in the proposition of perpetual motion. I certainly do—it's an interesting idea! But until we see any worthy results, we must consider it physically invalid. David Unaipon was clearly an intelligent man, and his interest in perpetual motion does nothing to diminish that. But let's not repeatedly describe perpetual motion as holding secrets that are waiting to be uncovered, even if various people throughout history have imagined that it might be.
