A fact from AussieBum appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 18 March 2007. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that aussieBum, an Australian swimwear manufacturer, was founded by Sean Ashby in 2001 when he couldn't find the "Aussie cozzie" style of swimwear he grew up with?

why do we need that wonderjock image on the page? does it really meet quality standards for images here? compared to the other pic, i just dont see the value this picture adds. i know the wonderjock comes in different country variants, but cant it be an aussie one, or even a non-country specific style. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.158.47.154 (talk) 11:43, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The image referred to above is File:AussieBum_wonderjock.jpg (now deleted). It was added to the article in July 2008, and there was a slow edit war about it that continued into September 2008 when it was finally deleted. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 09:22, 13 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"Aussie bum" redirect

"Aussie bum" is a term used to refer to lazy Aussies. I am tempted to convert the redirect Aussie bum to a disambig page, however "Aussie Bum" does appear to be most commonly used to refer to "aussieBum". We could add a hat note at the top of this article to that effect, linking to Aussie and ?? : slacker appears to be the best landing page (see bum and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Beach bum (2nd nomination)) and it doesnt describe it very well.
