Talk:Waterfall Gully, South Australia

message: "Greenhill Spring Water is from these very springs, and can readily purchased throughout Adelaide." Deleted, because myself and a number of people I've asked have never heard of it. 203.61.6.131 09:38, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

message: I'd suggest a lot of what is presently in the politics section should be moved to the respective electorate articles instead - otherwise almost the same info would need to eventually be added to every suburb in the electorate,, and updated for each election. --Scott Davis Talk 13:16, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

message: Add the dreaded  tag. This is on my watchlist now, so hopefully I'll be able to do some work on it in the future. One thing which really strikes me as bad: the second paragraph. At present it reads:
:Waterfall Gully is rich in history, and has been a popular attraction since Adelaide's early colonists discovered the area in the 19th century. Recent developments around First Falls and the reopening of the Waterfall Gully Restaurant have contributed further to its reputation as a tourist attraction. The suburb's natural beauty attracts residents as well as tourists and could be categorised as upper-middle class.
We don't just want this to be a featured article, we want it to be a good article. Alphax τεχ 03:07, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for the advice, but I think since you only mentioned one specific paragraph that it wouldn't be necessary. That said, if there are any other paragraphs that you want to change go for it - or - if you want, let me know which ones need attention, I'll tackle them. - michaelg 05:47, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

message: I've also got information on native vegetation here and here (Maybe another footnote or two to be added?). - michaelg 07:51, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

message: That was wierd to go to the main page (which I don't usually do) and find an adelaide suburb article that is not only a featured article but on the main page itself! I did some taxi driving a while back and have heard of most of Adelaide's suburbs, but wasn't familiar with this one. Looks like people from the Burnside council area are are fairly active wikipedia-wise. - Diceman 17:33, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

message: I don't think you can use these population statistics here. The article is about the suburb Waterfall Gully. The statistics are from a much larger census area that includes the suburbs of Waterfall Gully, Glen Osmond, Mount Osmond, and a section of Leawood Gardens according to the City of Burnside homepage. So most of the 2,285 inhabitants would be from Glen Osmond then. -- Harro 13:48, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

message: As part of the featured article review, I'm planning on going through this article and fixing up any issues that are raised. The major one is lack of citations, but others should arise. To start with, I've changed the referencing format: it was a mix of two different formats before, and I prefer the footnotes + references model. If there is an objection, though, I'm happy to change it back to references alone. I've also removed a couple of references as being to unreliable sources (signs), but they'll be easy enough to replace. 
So far I've got five major sources to work with in fixing this up, but any all all other suggestions are extremely welcome. :) Specifically, the two pdfs that were already listed as refs, (especially Pamela's paper), The Nature of Cleland by Anne Hardy, which looks pretty good, The Five Creeks of the River Torrens by J. Warburton, and The Paddocks Beneath by Elizabeth Warburton. They should give a good start, all going well. - Bilby (talk) 13:51, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  FAR 

message: I've been working down the article, extending, referencing and restructuring where appropriate. Mostly there have been no significant concerns - I've extended it where the sources I have provide extra information, and made a few changes where better sources gave a slightly different account, but mostly the article was already very good. (The major issue with differing account in the sources was the name of the mythical figure - I went with the name from the Smith paper, as it seemed the most reliable). However, some of the "Development" section was problematic. I've removed:
from the section on the weir, because while it feels accurate, and probably is, I can't find a source for it. Hopefully it can go back in later. I also culled the mining section, which read well but I couldn't source:
Again, better sources might fix that, but I think it unlikely that such sources will emerge during the review, so it has been trimmed to suit what I have available. I also restructured a bit, creating the "Protection" and  "Natural disasters" sections. The content for "Natural disasters" was already well referenced, but I'll need to tackle "Protection" later. - Bilby (talk) 01:22, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
