Date of birth

I have a note that says he was born 29 January 1947, but I don't know where I got that info from and I can't verify it online. Anyone know if it's true or not? -- Jack of Oz ^{[your turn]} 03:20, 1 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

2016 Election

Senator Dodson was elected, not re-elected, in 2016. It would be more accurate to say he was "returned to the Senate following election". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.154.208.5 (talk) 22:33, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Citations for the central land council

Hello all.

I've just added dates that I can verify for Pat Dodson's directorship at the Central Land Council and Kimberley Land Council. However, I'm not completely sure that the CLC citation is the best it could be: it's necessary to click through to the page, and then click on the "Read" button on the 1985 image for the detail. If anybody knows how better to cite this source, please feel free to correct my citation. Purple Lorikeet (talk) 02:59, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
