Rfv-sense - "a pizza with bacon (or sometimes ham) and eggs."
These citations are not particularly helpful. —JohnC5 21:44, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
- Recorded also in Macquarie Dictionary online -- Australiana2 adjective → Aussie (def. 2). [Australi(an)1 + -ana common Italian ending]. Where Aussie def 2. is defined as: Also, Australiana (of a pizza) having bacon and egg as a feature in the topping. Though, defined there as adjective rather than noun.Sonofcawdrey (talk) 05:48, 2 October 2015 (UTC)
- Are restaurant menus, as a form of print media, considered "durably archived?" Some menu citations from the Australian National Dictionary can be found here. -Cloudcuckoolander (talk) 19:38, 1 November 2015 (UTC)
- I don't think menus are durably archived, but the dictionary exists in print and it is presumably durably archived. Adding, to the one quotation we've already found, citations of only two of the four quotations AND has, and attributing them as "quoted in" that dictionary, would pass the durability criterion, wouldn't run afoul of the ban on other dictionaries' made-up usexes (since these would be real things merely quoted by the dictionary), and might not represent a copyright issue because lawyers have told Wiktionary that independently-verifiable facts are not copyrightable, and our presentation is different from the AND's (however, I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice). - -sche (discuss) 18:20, 13 February 2016 (UTC)

- Incidentally, it seems that "Australian" is also sometimes used in this sense, although I can only find on citation and it's of the phrase "Australian pizza" rather than bare "Australian" (as AND suggests this can be).

- We walked around the town for a while, and then had an Australian pizza for dinner – egg, ham, bacon and mozzarella.
