[edit] Cattai North, New South Wales
Was listed for speedy deletion but is not a speedy candidate. No vote from me. Angr/tɔk tə mi 11:15, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
Keep - substub with very limited info, but info all the same which could potentially be of use. Also has the potential to be expanded.CLW 12:02, 11 September 2005 (UTC)- Precedent is that suburbs should be listed under the city they are in. Delete Pilatus 12:13, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
- Strong keep provided such a municipality exists. — JIP | Talk 16:18, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep All real settlements. CalJW 19:06, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep towns such as D'Lo, Mississippi have articles here for God's sake (even though I don;t think that is notable either).Molotov (talk)
20:40, 11 September 2005 (UTC) Keep the stub. Perhaps it is borderline, but it looks like the members of Wikipedia:Wikiproject Sydney are motivated and intent on improving Wikipedia's coverage of Sydney and its environs. Good on ya, mates!--DavidConrad 21:36, 11 September 2005 (UTC)- Delete, because this suburb does not appear to exist:
- There is a state government body that defines suburbs called the Geographical Names Board of NSW. You can search their database, and I encourage you to do exactly that, because it will reveal there is no suburb called "Cattai North" or "North Cattai".
- There is a federal government body called Geoscience Australia, which is "the national agency for geoscience research and geospatial information", and it has a database on place names of Australia, which you can search here, and I encourage you to do exactly that, because it will reveal there is no suburb called "Cattai North" or "North Cattai".
- Street Directory: The definitive Sydney street directory is called the UBD, and it contains a comprehensive list of "Suburbs and Localities". This list does not contain any entry for "Cattai North" or "North Cattai".
- When I asked the person who added these suburbs about this, they indicated there was "a bit of gunk" in the data they were using.
- This suburb is not shown in the map Baulkham Hill Shire provides of it's own boundaries, nor is it listed in the list of shire suburbs names and their origins.
- The current list of Sydney suburbs should be fairly complete and definitive (errors and omissions can happen of course, but I'd venture to say it's now > 95% accurate), and myself and others have put a lot of effort into making it as accurate as we can, so if something is not on that list then it's most probably not a suburb.
- For all of the above factual reasons, I encourage you to delete this entry. -- All the best, Nickj (t) 00:12, 12 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as per Nickj. The Gregory's Street Directory does not list this as a suburb or locality. Capitalistroadster 00:25, 12 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Kappa 03:08, 12 September 2005 (UTC)

- Delete, as per Nickj. Ambi 11:37, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete per Nickj. It is not listed by Australia Post, either. Nickj has done a good job sorting suburbs localities and local names. --Scott Davis Talk 12:59, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
