removed this statement:

...is also made poorer than the rest of Sydney due to the large number of people with mental problems. They are service [by North Ryde asylum]

it seems dubious, some statistics and studies should be cited. it isn't clear to me that mental patients would necessarily make an area "poorer" (which this statement implies is cause-and-effect), nor is it clear what percentage of the population are mentally ill, or are patients or former patients of the hospitals in question. until this is rewritten with some citations and backup evidence in a NPOV manner, it should not be mentioned. clarkk 08:56, 23 Apr 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Separate page for the Local Government Area

As per discussion at Talk:List of Sydney suburbs, I have created a separate page for the City of Ryde, the Local Government Area. -- Ianblair23 12:58, 30 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Top Ryde merge

I've merged in Top Ryde, which wasn't worth a page on its own. m.e. 08:22, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

Thank you, m.e.! -- All the best, Nickj (t) 23:01, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Rather than get into a revert war

The statement that the shopping center is a youth meeting point has little or no encyclopedic value, I edited it, it got edited back, does anyone have any thoughts on why this has any value to wikipedia at all? Elomis 05:06, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
