In case anybody is wondering, I removed the section about the "three smaller localities of Glen Waverley" (Syndal, Tally Ho, and Wheelers Hill), because Syndal is technically a locality of Mount Waverley, not Glen Waverley, Wheelers Hill is a suburb, not a locality at all, and Tally Ho is too insignificant to merit a mention, particularly on its own. - Vaelor 06:55, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

Agree, agree, disagree. Glen Waverley isn't that big, Tally Ho seems relevant for this article. If the article were 20 pages long and you were looking to trim, then fair enough. But it's barely a stub - why chop? Stevage 07:05, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
Not looking to chop as such, more didn't know how to better phrase "Glen Waverley contains, erm, well at least one smaller locality, namely, Tally Ho!". Seemed an awkward sentence once Syndal and Wheelers Hill were removed from the equasion. If you can come up with an intelligent way to mention Tally Ho in the article, please do - it's only that I couldn't! =) - Vaelor 07:13, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
Don't make life hard for yourself. "There is a business park in Glen Waverley called Tally Ho". It's fairly significant, I don't have a list of companies housed there though. Stevage 22:46, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Redundant copied content needed twice?

Erm, the section in this article about The Glen is almost quite literally word for word identical to the Centro The Glen article itself. Seems a little redundant to me. Should not one or the other be removed, possibly based on whether or not The Glen is noteworthy enough for its own article (if so, chop the repetition out of this article, and if not, delete the independant The Glen article)...? Thoughts anybody? - Vaelor 08:39, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

About the mention of The Glen, no-one calls it The Glen Centro, or Centro The Glen who isn't the receptionist at the Glen making announcements of sales with her annoyingly happy voice. Centro are also in control of other shopping centres near-by, eg, Brandon Park, and have failed to force people to call it Centro Brandon Park or vice-versa. It is NOT informally called that. It has only been called by Centro itself, not by the shoppers. BlackSlivers 01:54, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
"Centro The Glen" sounds like a robot from a B-grade scifi. Orderinchaos 05:34, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
