Welcome to our WikiProject

Project

Our goals are create more quality articles on historical and recent crime in Australia (such as convicts, bushrangers, Aboriginal massacres, rebellons, riots, terrorism, and deaths in custody), Australian criminal biography, and crime-related media. We also aim to fill in, organise, and standardise articles about related topics (such as law enforcement in Australia, punishment in Australia and indirectly, the judiciary of Australia and Australian crime studies and statistics).
