To whoever in Writing for the Digital World is editing this I am seething. Kurri is my hometown and I would have loved to cover this. Do it justice. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jenaemadden (talkcontribs) 01:08, 21 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

I have just digitized a super 8 film reel, amazingly of Kurri Kurri aluminium smelter in operation, which was recorded by my grandfather Les Whellum (dec'd) many years ago. I think it would be a great contribution to display on this page -- if I upload the video to wikimedia commons could someone please embed it properly for me? --anthony Akjmphoto (talk) 09:50, 8 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

That seems like something that would be a great addition! Well, I'm not completely sure if a video would fit well into an article (it depends on the video), but I imagine still frames from the video would work well since currently the article lacks any images of the smelter, and the whole video would be welcome on commons.
