Tsk tsk, David.  Respect the process.  You must leave the erroneous 
information in, and attempt to reason with the inserter on the Talk: page.  
People who revert are simply thinking like an "edit warrior".  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.
