Hi Pdfpdf, I see you have undone my edit on this page. There is a difference in status here which does need to be addressed. Mitchell was the first Australian woman to be a judge in Australia, but not the first Australian woman to be a judge. May Darlington Lahey, an Australian woman, became a judge overseas in 1928. The lede on Mitchell's page has to be adjusted to reflect this, can discuss here suitable ways to word it clearly. MurielMary (talk) 09:35, 26 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
- I reworded it to remove any doubt. Normally I'd think people bringing up Lahey in this context were being a bit pedantic, but "first Australian woman to be a judge" is clearly wrong. The Drover's Wife (talk) 10:56, 26 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
