Open research question

Which community-authorised sources document current transmission, self-designations, varieties, and language maintenance for Gumatj?

This question is an assignment for later subject and community-proximate source review, not a claim about a uniform cultural worldview.

Scholarly boundary

The map point is a Glottolog reference point, not a language-area boundary. The script field is a likely Unicode CLDR assignment, not a complete history of orthography. Information on endangerment and countries follows the linked source data and does not replace current local assessment.
