Talk:Blacktown

message: I moved the page from "Blacktown" to "Blacktown, New South Wales" to follow Wikipedia place-name convention. Techelf 11:42, 9 Dec 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: this is not a general place-name convention, it is only a place-name convention for american locations.   there is presently a vigorous debate about whether we should apply these conventions to australian articles, see wikipedia:australian wikipedians' notice board/Archive 6#Again on Disambiguation.  even though it's an archive i don't feel that the vote has been officially called yet.   the general naming convention only calls for disambiguation where necessary.  clarkk 09:06, 10 Dec 2004 (UTC)

message: Some good ones would be: the historic ones from council's website (with relevant copyright of course), the new library, Westpoint shopping centre, the court house.
The best place for a photo of the railway station would of course be the railway station article....

message: I removed this line:
It has one of the highest crime rates for domestic and public violence in Sydney. Along with Bankstown, it is one of the only areas in Sydney to experience rising crime rates.http://blacktown-advocate.whereilive.com.au/news/story/blacktown-still-the-top-for-violence-at-home
The article talks about the Blacktown Local Government Area which encompasses a far wider area than Blacktown itself. It is likely that the high figures cited in the article are for the surrounding suburbs of Blacktown and not for Blacktown itself. If someone can find a reliable source for figures for Blacktown proper, then by all means include it. But at the moment, this line is irrelevant to the article. 60.240.207.146 (talk) 01:25, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

message: I wonder if there is any controversy about the racist town name? In other countries, the name would have been changed to a less offensive one. 217.233.163.116 (talk) 13:37, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
