Sources[edit]

Okay, so when was on the page, I saw this massive chunk of text in the intro paragraph. So I decided to move it to here:

Source: Much of the material and contents here (specially earlier census figures) are taken from Purushottama Bilimoria, Hindus in Australia, 1988, but is not acknowledged; author is noted as "Notable Australian of Indian Ancestry" (in Wikipedia!). The last sentence here is taken from Bilimoria's work verbatim! And it is nonsensical to say most of the Hindus are of Indian and Nepali origin; it should be Indian (whether India-born or of of Indian ancestry) and Sri Lankan (Tamil); there are more local converts (among Anglo-Celtic, other Asian or migrant, and Aboriginal stocks) to Hinduism than Nepali Hindus in Australia. Wikipedia is not a scholar's hub, that is why lot of falsities and unacknowledged material get put up. For correct and best and most updated account see: The Indian Diaspora: Hindus and Sikhs in Australia, edited/mostly authored by Purushottama Bilimoria, Jayant Bhalchandra Bapat & Philip Hughes, DKPrintworld, New Delhi, 2015. You cannot go past this source, mate. Namaskaram. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hindian1947 (talk • contribs) 13:11, 24 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

External links modified[edit]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Hinduism in Australia. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
