Comment
Comments: 
According to Breen (1971 MA thesis), the Warluwara G10 people consisted of three groups: Kapula, Parnkara G41, and the Warluwara G10 proper; Kapula is given by Warluwara speakers as a dialect of that language. Documentation on Warluwara G10 may be relevant.

Speaker numbers were measured differently across the censuses and various other sources listed in AUSTLANG. You are encouraged to refer to the sources.

Speaker numbers for ‘NILS 2004’ and ‘2005 estimate’ come from 'Table F.3: Numbers of speakers of Australian Indigenous languages (various surveys)' in 'Appendix F NILS endangerment and absolute number results' in McConvell, Marmion and McNicol 2005, pages 198-230 (PDF, 2.5MB).
