The first paragraph says it's a hunting weapon, the the Hunting section says there's no evidence for this. Which is it? Vinsomnia (talk) 05:46, 17 May 2017 (UTC) Jim C
The current version of the article has a section claiming a recent law requires boomerangs over a certain size to be registered with the FAA, and for commercial users to have their pilot's license. The sources actually point to some recent FAA regulations that require registration of drones over a certain size, with no specific mention of boomerangs. Maybe it's possible that the definitions used in the text of the law are broad enough that boomerangs were accidentally included, but wouldn't that fall under original research if it did? There's a lot of citations on there, including several interpretations of the bill, but none of the interpretations mention boomerangs. Owyn Merrilin (talk) 20:19, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
Someone added text with a ref:
but I can't check that article.
Then an IP removed that text without any reasoning given. Could an editor with access via ResearchGate take a look and see what this is about? Shenme (talk) 20:35, 1 September 2018 (UTC)

I have added some citations to Throwing technique, which had none at all, with a view to removing the Citation Template. Please feel free to improve on the citations or make comment. If people are agreed, or there is no response, I shall remove the template within the next few days. Ex nihil (talk) : Ex nihil (talk) 13:08, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
In this page's "History" section, the legend accompanying the map of Australia showing the precolonial distribution of boomerangs there can barely be made out even on a standard full-size desktop PC monitor. Could use enlargement. Mucketymuck (talk) 05:58, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
