[edit] Riverina Rating

I stewed on the Riverina rating of this town a fair bit ending up choosing Mid because of its relationship to William Jackson, VC (given how few VC's there are in Australian Military History). I have no problem with a Riverina rating that is lower (based on the town being a Ghost Town) but just thought I would leave my rationale on this page.--VS talk 23:08, 23 April 2007 (UTC)PS I should probably add the Black Stump background of the town also raised its importance to the Riverina project a little more IMHO.--VS talk 23:10, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

I understand where you are coming from, but perhaps we should include William Jackson (Victoria Cross) in the Riverina project as a Mid rating. The town was never much and it is literally a deserted hall, an attractive and well maintained church and some tennis courts now.--Mattinbgn/ talk 23:46, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
Yep fair call. Notice you have already - well done.--VS talk 00:24, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
