message: *The Kingston Centre 
*Kingston Heath reserve  
*The Kingston Heath Golf Club 
are all located in Cheltenham not Heatherton. They have been removed from this article, with the Kingston Centre added to Cheltenham, Victoria where it should have been originally. 
Heatherton article does need major work, with correct referencing, because it's apalling to find out that not 1 but 3 places that have been mentioned in this article for quite some time, do not belong to this article but to another suburbs article. I grant that Chetenham and Heatherton are directly adjacent to each other, but there is an 'invisible barrier' between them, look in the Melway and also look at these 3 links above ^^^ they all state that they are part of Cheltenham. 
It may be hard to re-build this article but whats worse than having not that much information--is having wrong information, that clearly does not belong.
If there is anything you want to take up with me, please discuss on my talk page :)
Thankyou.

thread_title:  The Kingston Centre - Kingston Heath Reserve - Kingston Heath Golf Club 

message: According to the history of the Heatherton page it says that you were the first one to add the Kingston Centre in the article. However the only problem, is that the Kigston Centre is located in Cheltenham, Not Heatherton. I have removed that section because it is misleading. The Kingston Centre has been added to the Cheltenham article, where it should have been originally. Thankyou.MelbourneStar1 (talk) 09:07, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

message: Hi MelbourneStar1.  Thanks for your note on my User page regarding your change to my Kingston Centre content on the Heatherton page.  Very good of you to take the time to leave a note - most revisions are done without such courtesy!  I've reviewed your changes, and will be reverting some of them, I'm afraid - a check of the Melways shows that the Kingston Centre is physically in the suburb of Heatherton, though (confusingly) it has a Cheltenham Street adress - I guess because the front gate is on Warrigal Rd, which marks the boundary between Heatherton and Cheltenham.  The Kingston Heath Golf Club is definitely in Heatherton (Google Maps even gives Heatherton as their address), though amusingly they give themselves a Cheltenham address on their website (regardless of the fact that there is no Kingston Road in Cheltenham). Maybe this is because most Melburnians (let alone the rest of the world) have never heard of Heatherton...  Your sandbelt revision is much less clear cut.  I couldn't find an authoritiative definition of what consitutes "the sandbelt", though I did find both that the Kingston Heath and Capital courses are described (and the former self describes) as being "in the Melbourne Sandbelt"  I've added references to all the above accordingly.  Finally, Kingston Heath Reserve is indeed in Cheltenham - my bad.
I guess the underlying message for both of us is that all information on Wikipedia must be verifiable from (preferably multiple) sources - just like it says under the editing box. By definition, it must not contain "original research" - neither your nor my opinion has any validity. I didn't include references to support all of the information originally provided, but have now satisfied myself that the information given is accurate, and have referenced, where appropriate.
