If I write an article on Terrigal, a town in Gosford, where would I include it? --dblandford 13:45, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Terrigal is a town in Gosford City Council, rather than in the town of Gosford, New South Wales -- there is a red link on the GCC page you can use. However, if you use this link: Terrigal, New South Wales you won't upset those who care about consistent naming of places. You then change the GCC page to use the link [[Terrigal, New South Wales|Terrigal]]. Hope this helps. Andrew Kepert 01:19, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Thanks Andrew. How do I make my signature/timestamp show my actual name rather than my username? David Blandford --dblandford 10:29, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

There's a user pref for this somewhere - I will look it up and respond on your user talk page. Andrew Kepert 07:52, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Edit 20060515

I couldn't stand the current state of this page, so I fixed it up. There was tooo much boldfacing, duplicated information (both on this page and compared with linked pages), and a lot of stuff with a use-by date. I managed to interlink a few other things. Some of what was left ended up in a list of dot-points, which can be evaluated whether to leave as is, expand or delete. Andrew Kepert 09:09, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Football/soccer

Why "football (soccer)"? Being an Australian article, shouldn't it follow Australian usage, i.e. just "soccer"? --Ptcamn 07:20, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Soccer is now officially recognised as Football in Australia to correspond with international usage of the word. See FFA for more info. Ansend 07:05, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
