[edit] Checklist for the Completed Guidelines

  1. An explanation of the suburb's location.
  2. A history of the area, including (at a bare minimum) how it was created and when.
  3. An explanation of the suburb's name.

For an article to be considered a featured suburb it must be of high quality. It must have all the attributes of a normal featured article (this means a good lead section, excellent prose, etc), and must also have the following information:

  1. A map, showing where the suburb is located in Adelaide. Tip: getting a good map under an acceptable copyright / license is not currently very easy, but attempts are being made to improve this...
  2. Population statistics (I've got the data from the census, and I've used a bit for transport. I'll write up the rest.) Bilby (talk) 10:22, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
  3. Transport information (e.g. does the suburb rely of buses, trains, ferries, etc).
  4. Information about local events if applicable(e.g. community festivals, council-organised events, etc). (I'm presuming that there are none, although there was a festival thing over at Mitchell Park Reserve that might count) Bilby (talk) 10:22, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
  5. Information about local landmarks or features, along with pictures of these landmarks or features.
  6. A more complete section on the suburb's history (e.g. notable historical events, times when the suburb grew quickly, etc).
  7. Notable citizens who were born or lived in the suburb (optional, but if they existed then they should be in the article). Tip: they only need to be in list form, together with less than 20 words saying who they were.
  8. A reference section. All facts need to be attributable to an external source of information (say a newspaper report/cutting, book about the town, local council document).
  9. Information about any prominent local organisations (churches, historical societies, local clubs, etc). If you prefer, you can just include links to local organisations in an External Links section.
  10. Added brownie points go to anyone who researches the area and puts in a section detailing the past aboriginal culture of the area.
  11. Optional: Politics (local issues, what state and federal electorate the suburb is in, who are the current local members, is it a safe Labor seat/safe Libs seat/marginal seat).
  12. Have coordinates

I'm also personally inclined to add:

  1. Industry (mostly Mitsubishi and Tenneco)
  2. Heath services
  3. Shopping

[edit] Scout Hall

I gather that there's a Scout Hall or something just past Cosgrove Hall, according to teh street directory. I'll chase that up, but I have no idea what other clubs might be here. Bilby (talk) 13:02, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
