Preceeding and Succeeding

Could someone add to the Australian of the Year nominee articles those boxes saying who preceded and succeeded them? I'd do it, but I don't really feel like figuring out how.--220.238.233.226 15:42, 6 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Please Expand (Apr 08)

I feel that for a topic of high importance, this is a short article. If anyone has done some research on the Australians of the Year, please contribute. A good reference site would be the official site at [1] (there is a link to this on the article page as well. Remember to cite as much information as possible, or it will be marked accordingly and people may not believe you. JJIG ^(t|c) 09:25, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I put my hand up to significantly expand the article. It will take me a little while but am happy to have a stab.~~ —Preceding unsigned comment added by Galah66 (talk • contribs) 06:48, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have added a line space and tab to Galah66s' post for improved readability. 220.101 talk^\Contribs 12:10, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think the article could do with a few more relevant images. I will try to reserach soem images. Comments? Galah66 (talk) 03:59, 5 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
