I'm sure the postings on this list, including those from the person promoting the "Australia is a republic" idea itself, have made it quite clear that a few well-chosen words in Talk: will have the person promoting the idea that "Australia is a republic" repudiating his views and voluntarily reverting his contributions in no time at all.
No, you just point out that he is right, and that "constitutional monarchy" means republic and a little bit more, and if he wants to point that very thing out a little later in the article than the introduction, that is OK. -- Silverback
