Also (in the other article) there is a "Stances of public figures" section, which as I'm sure everyone agrees could be a very long list by October. Before a lot of random and disparate info gets added into one or the other article, can we reach a consensus on structure and how many groups or people's opinions Wikipedia should record?

This is simply an extension of the fact that the government does not use the word race to classify any people in Australia at all. The national census reflects this too, by asking about ancestry rather than race. The word IS used as part of the No campaign. There have been several attempts by an IP editor to add it here, presumably by someone opposed to the Voice.

Like we aren't "multiracial" but instead we are "multicultural". Now we can acknowledge that Racism does exist, but "race" isn't really part of the conversation, with it being more towards specific ethnic groups (for example Lebanese and Greek Australians).</dd> <dd>I think that editors are just trying to add "race based" in bad faith, rather than encyclopaedic reasonings. By adding "race based" they are implying that it is a discriminatory policy, due to the current and historical usage of the phrase, "race based".</dd> <dd>I hope this makes sense, if anyone would like to discuss this further on my talk page that will be fine.

You seem to be making two claims: (1) Opposition in the juridicial concerns section is entirely sourced to News Corp publications (descriptive claim); (2) having this opposition entirely sourced to News Corp publications is a bad thing (normative claim). As Ilenart has already said, (1) is just false on the facts. AFR, ABC and The Conversation are cited to support negative perspectives on the proposed constitutional wording, none of which are published by News Corp. I would also disagree with the normative claim (2). What is important is whether the sources cited are reliable, not whether they are published by News Corp. And you don't seem to be alleging News Corp sources are unreliable.

Although the government <em>could</em> create the Voice without a referendum or Constitutional change, the Voice will - if approved by referendum - be added to the Constitution, and thus "empowered by the Constitution". The fact that the govt could create a non-constitutional Voice does not invalid that it could added to the Constitution. (Whether it is purely "symbolic" is a matter of opinion that does not affect the fact of the current sentence.) <a href="/wiki/User:Mitch_Ames" title="User:Mitch Ames">Mitch Ames</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Mitch_Ames" title="User talk:Mitch Ames">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Indigenous_Voice_to_Parliament#c-Mitch_Ames-20230804011000-Skyring-20230804010200" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">01:10, 4 August 2023 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Mitch_Ames-20230804011000-Skyring-20230804010200"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Mitch_Ames-20230804011000-Skyring-20230804010200"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Skyring-20230804011700-Mitch_Ames-20230804011000"></span>It is - as noted - misleading in that it suggests that a referendum is required.

Given that the Opposition Leader is publicly opposing it, that would seem to be likely in the present circumstances. A constitutional change would ensure that the Voice lasts longer than the duration of one government.

They establish an Inter-State Commission which was later implemented in detail in legislation. You will, however, search in vain for this constitutionally-enshrined body. It was abolished by a later government. Sure, we could all vote YES in the referendum but a later parliament could repeal the legislation. The High Court has no ability to enforce its interpretations; that's up to the government.

It has always existed, in a constitutional sense, since 1901, and will continue to exist until such time as a referendum removes it from the Constitution. Why? Because the Constitution says it exists. Yes, the Constitution also says that the Parliament has the power to decide how it will operate in a practical sense, and that includes circumstances in which it is NOT operating in a practical sense (such as 1901-12, 1920-75, and since 1990). If the current government chose to remake the ISC in the form it once had, it wouldn't require any new laws, simply an Administrative Arrangements Order signed by the G-G.</dd> <dd>Similarly, if the Voice referendum gets up, the Voice will exist because the Constitution will say it does. The Voice will have been created BY the Constitution, exactly as the ISC was created BY the Constitution. The fact that a form of a Voice <i>could</i> be created by legislation doesn't alter this. Any Voice created by legislation would have the character of impermanence, and any and all of its fundamental properties, features, rights and responsibilities could change whenever the parliament decrees; while the fundamental aspects of a constitutionally created Voice could not be changed except via another referendum. So, we're essentially comparing apples and oranges. Yes, I know nothing in the Constitution is ever truly permanent, which is why there's a mechanism for changing it, but that argument leads us down ferret burrows and places we don't need to go. (Nothing in the entire Universe is ever truly permanent, except the Universe itself.) So, the Voice that will be created if the referendum passes will indeed be a new head of power.</dd> <dd>This is why I would prefer to say: "If approved in an upcoming referendum ... the Constitution would <b>establish</b> the Voice, which could make representations to the Parliament .." -- <a href="/wiki/User:JackofOz" title="User:JackofOz"><span style="font-family: Papyrus;">Jack of Oz</span></a> <a href="/wiki/User_talk:JackofOz#top" title="User talk:JackofOz"><span style="font-size:85%; font-family: Verdana;"><sup>[pleasantries]</sup></span></a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Indigenous_Voice_to_Parliament#c-JackofOz-20230804225100-Skyring-20230804221100" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">22:51, 4 August 2023 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-JackofOz-20230804225100-Skyring-20230804221100"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-JackofOz-20230804225100-Skyring-20230804221100"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Skyring-20230804232300-JackofOz-20230804225100"></span>My point is that the I-SC is mentioned in the Constitution but has no physical existence.

That could all change tomorrow with no more than the stroke of a pen. That's because it does have a constitutional existence, and always has had since 1 January 1901.</dd> <dd>"Did the Commonwealth have any actual existence when the Constitution was signed into law on 9 July 1900?" - No, simply because it was deemed to be effective from 1 January 1901, not a second before. I don't know exactly when Barton was sworn in as PM that day, but I promise you it wasn't a moment after the stroke of midnight. There was a period of time that day - presumably quite a few hours, during which it was possible for all manner of events to have occurred - when the Commonwealth of Australia existed but there was no government. Literally no government. But the Commonwealth existed, because the Constitution which created it said it did.</dd> <dd>I don't think many, or any, people interested enough to read our article think that merely inserting words actually brings anything into physical existence. That would be tantamount to magic, because bringing things into existence takes work, human effort, organisation, all the rest of it. But the words lie behind that activity, and authorise it, and not just permit it, but demand that it occur. This is the very real difference between a doctor's prescription and the Voice constitutional provision. A patient has to decide to go to the chemist to have the script filled, and then has to decide to take the pill, and decide to keep on taking it for as long as the script indicates. But once the Voice is in the Constitution, the Voice will exist, full stop. What happens next in terms of parliamentary activity about its operating rules etc cannot ever make the Voice cease to exist. Only another referendum could do that. -- <a href="/wiki/User:JackofOz" title="User:JackofOz"><span style="font-family: Papyrus;">Jack of Oz</span></a> <a href="/wiki/User_talk:JackofOz#top" title="User talk:JackofOz"><span style="font-size:85%; font-family: Verdana;"><sup>[pleasantries]</sup></span></a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Indigenous_Voice_to_Parliament#c-JackofOz-20230805033100-Skyring-20230804232300" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">03:31, 5 August 2023 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-JackofOz-20230805033100-Skyring-20230804232300"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-JackofOz-20230805033100-Skyring-20230804232300"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Skyring-20230805035700-JackofOz-20230805033100"></span>My point about the Commonwealth is that the Constitution became law on 9 July 1900 but the Commonwealth had no physical existence until 1 January 1901, nearly six months later. Just a potential. The timings on that day aren't critical.

Once Albo is voted out (or booted out by his own party, both apparently equally popular ways for Prime Ministers to leave the stage nowadays) the mere fact of whatever sort of constitutional existence the Voice, the Inter-State Commission, the right to trial by jury and so on might enjoy does not mean that any of those things will have anything that an ordinary mortal might latch onto.</dd> <dd>The next PM along could repeal the Voice legislation or modify it into irrelevance or simply dump it out the door. The words of the Constitution have no power in themselves, the High Court cannot force the government to implement it in a form of the High Court's choosing, the thing would have a notional existence but there would be no advisory body to offer advice.</dd> <dd>Simply holding a referendum and getting a YES vote doesn't mean there is an actual advisory body.

The constitutional amendment requires the Voice to be comprised of Indigenous people and to make representations on matters affecting indigenous people, but there is nothing that requires the members of the body to represent the views of Indigenous communities (wherever they may be). Assuming a member is elected to represent a certain community, on deciding whether or not to vote on giving a representation to parliament, they may (and probably usually will) decide to base their decision on the views of the community, but will ultimately make the decision themselves based of various factors. The Voice isn't just a conference of delegates bound to act a certain way, there's a broader purpose and discretion. Similarly, MPs aren't elected to represent their seats views, they also need to consider party politics and compromise. <a href="/wiki/User:Safes007" title="User:Safes007">Safes007</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Safes007" title="User talk:Safes007">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Indigenous_Voice_to_Parliament#c-Safes007-20230824083200-Member_representing_views_of_the_community" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">08:32, 24 August 2023 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Safes007-20230824083200-Member_representing_views_of_the_community"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Safes007-20230824083200-Member_representing_views_of_the_community"></span> </p> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Mitch_Ames-20230824094700-Safes007-20230824083200"></span><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1248585704"><q class="inline-quote-talk inline-quote-talk-marks">The constitutional amendment requires the Voice to be comprised of Indigenous people</q> — No it does not.

It makes the role of members seem more prescriptive and limited than anything the design principles say. For example, the design principles say 'Members of the Voice would be expected to connect with – and reflect the wishes of – their communities.' 'Reflect the wishes of their communities' is a much broader idea than representing the views of a community, as the former gives more leeway to consider other factors.</dd> <dd>I think '... to be comprised of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, chosen according to the wishes of Indigenous communities' gets across this leeway, while still maintaining the link to Indigenous Communities, with the fact that they will reflect the views of their communities being an obvious implication, but one that arises structurally, not due to a legal requirement. <a href="/wiki/User:Safes007" title="User:Safes007">Safes007</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Safes007" title="User talk:Safes007">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Indigenous_Voice_to_Parliament#c-Safes007-20230824142900-Mitch_Ames-20230824094700" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">14:29, 24 August 2023 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Safes007-20230824142900-Mitch_Ames-20230824094700"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Safes007-20230824142900-Mitch_Ames-20230824094700"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Mitch_Ames-20230825095600-Safes007-20230824142900"></span>I still think that, for the first sentence, it is more important to mention the mandatory constitutionally-required purpose of the Voice (make representation to government) than it is to mention how it is chosen (which is not constitutionally required).

They also seek to change the views of their state, campaign on issues or just represent a subset of the State.

Also the last section "State and territory voices" just needs it's own article/s and should be linked in see also. The current article is bloated and is in desperate need of some copyediting.
