Not a monolith edit
Mount Connor is not a monolith, rather is part of a larger, mostly underground structure that includes The Olgas and Uluru. Garglebutt / (talk) 22:28, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
What, then? edit
Could it be a mesa? I seem to remember my guide using that word, but the word mesa does not appear in the article. And it does look like one. Kelisi (talk) 20:14, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
geology edit
shouldn't there be something on geology?

Mt Connor's nickname - Fooluru edit
I have recently got back from visiting Mt Conner, and when i was there it was referred to as "Fooluru". However, when I searched for that title on Wikipedia, nothing came up. I have never really done any Wikipedia editing before, but I thought I'd add it to the article. However I have noticed that it has been removed as a source is needed. I don't really understand what I need to do for this as it is just a colloquial name rather than any official title. If you do a google search for Fooluru there are lots of photos of Mt Conner, so it wasn't just our tour guide's naming. If someone could let me know the best way of finding a source I'd be very grateful. 86.182.173.88 (talk) 08:44, 16 September 2012 (UTC)
- If it's a common name then I'd think a Google search could turn up a link to a reliable source. Coversely, if a Google search doesn't turn up a reliable source, then there might be a problem. You could also try hitting up the library to track down a source that uses the name. Hope this helps! Doniago (talk) 14:42, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
- I did a Google Search and it looks like finding a reliable source will take quite an extensive search. By the way, one Flickr web page, Mount Connor (Fooluru), stated that it "earned" the name "Fooluru" because many a tourist, tired out by rough roads, mistook Mt Conner for Uluru and turned around and back to Alice Springs before reaching Uluru. Of course, a person also needs a reliable source for this explanation of this nickname. Paul H. (talk) 15:09, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
- Neat anecdote, but yeah, not quite encyclopedic. Sounds like we may have hit a bit of a snag on this one. Doniago (talk) 16:42, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
- So is there anything that can be done? Or does it just have to be left out? 86.176.93.90 (talk) 14:25, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
- Finding a reliable source and citing it would solve the problem nicely. Without verification, though, we can't include it. Doniago (talk) 15:44, 26 November 2012 (UTC)
- Ok, that's not really possible since it is just an anecdotal name. So I will leave it. Thank you for the help though. 86.176.43.175 (talk) 01:12, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
