Naming conventions & language
[edit]Given that the name of the mountain has been Didthul for presumably thousands of years longer than it's been Pigeon House Mountain, is it worth renaming this article to reflect that fact? I'm unfamiliar with wiki policy on these things but NSW National Parks appears to have updated their terminology to call it Pigeon House Mountain Didthul, which to me is a compromise but seems like a good place to start.
Additionally, I think the etymology desperately needs updating; 'Aboriginal' is not a language, any more than is 'European' or 'Native American'. There are hundreds of Australian Aboriginal languages, and the language of the country which Didthul is a part of is Yuin. Someone with more experience or expertise in the history of the area might have a better idea but as far as I can see the description of Didthul as the 'Aboriginal' name for the mountain is woefully inadequate.
