Comment
Comments: 
O'Grady et al. (1966) list Wudjar as being in a dialectal relationship with Idinji Y117. Oates and Oates (1970) give Idin-Wudjar as an alternative name for Yidiny Y117, but no other information is available. Given this, and the fact that the name does not appear in any catalogue records in the AIATSIS collection, Wudjar is listed as Unconfirmed..

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