Noongar language

[edit source]

Shouldn't there be a page about the language on this wiki? Aarghdvaark (talk) 03:18, 20 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

Spelling of Kaya

[edit source]

"Kaya" is spelt Kaia in Minang dialect as suggested by Vernice Gillies

I've updated English Wiktionary to link between these terms. See Wiktionary:kaya#Nyunga. — Sam Wilson 06:49, 22 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

CI?

[edit source]

What does it mean?

"CI" is used several times on https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/nys/Main_Page. Mitch Ames (talk) 09:03, 13 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
Tracked down this: "A Chief Investigator (CI) ... is responsible for the intellectual, administrative and ethical aspects of a research project ... The ‘first-named’ or ‘lead’ chief investigator is designated as the key contact and the manager of the research project." I'll replace CI with Chief Investigator as CI is academic jargon. It looks like this explanation of Noongarpedia was taken from a grant application. Aarghdvaark (talk) 02:50, 14 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
