Maybe we need an Australian Project? Private User might be interested but is away for a bit - Private User? Pam Karp?

There are a number of existing Australian projects, plus also:

http://www.geni.com/projects/Australian-Jewish-Online-Resources/11308

Search "Australian" to list the more specific titles.

I was thinking specifically a Monumental Inscriptions, Cemeteries and Graveyards - Australia project Pam

The portal is for listing Australian projects, so there is no clash there.

There seems to be some confusion here, this discussion is part of the project:
http://www.geni.com/projects/Monumental-Inscriptions-Cemeteries-and... hence when Sharyn suggested some Australian sites, June Barnes thought perhaps we need an Australian specific project similar to this one. If one was started it would need to be linked to the Australian Portal.

Thanks Terry - I am happy to set one up unless someone else wants to do it? Something to kick off from. That would mean that people could add links there in connection with Oz.

If you set one up June, I will collaborate and link it to Oz projects if you like. You have the template for the project, so maybe easier if you do. Another script I am working on, project and profile templates for automation :)
I found the project above a bit confusing, because of the "find a grave" searches etc. was why I thought to leave it alone and just follow it.

I am working my way through the territories - haven't launched the Main page yet - will do that when all the territories have been processed. Then over to you.

Have re-worded the references to Find a Grave etc. on this project - hopefully less confusing?

I have been adding the links to the main project as they came in.
Thanks :)
I will copy your setup if that's ok.
I am totally unaware of most of those territoris you know, we do not get taught much about our country at school, or were not when I was young.
I went to an "English Girls Grammar School" too, in Australia,but all English teachings and tradition of the "old country". LOL
