Talk:Greystanes, New South Wales

message: "It was from this land that William Lawson, Gregory Blaxland and William Charles Wentworth set out on their successful crossing of the Blue Mountains in 1813 and discovered the Bathurst Plains. The Lawson family crypt still exists today at St Bartholomew's Church, Prospect.[1]"
I propose to delete the first of these sentences as it is incorrect and second because it is not relevant. It was from William Lawson's home Veteran Hall, which is on the Western lower slopes of Prospect Hill (not in Greystanes suburb), that the expedition set out. There is persistent confusion between Veteran Hall and Grey Stanes, the latter being, as stated, the home of William Lawson's son Nelson Lawson. Building of Grey Stanes did not start until 1836. The Lawson crypt is nbot relevant to the Greystanes article.
If there is no comment I will make the deletion. Spathaky (talk) 06:45, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I have now found that the expedition's departure was from Blaxland's farm at Eastern Creek, though Lawson would have first left from his home Veteran Hall. Anyway this doesn't alter the fact that the article was incorrect and, as there has been no comment for a week, I have deleted as I said I would. Spathaky (talk) 11:13, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

message: LibStar made numerous deletion to my work on notable residents. I have since restored this information, as this was my work which I spent weeks researching in the local community, especially at local schools and the Greystanes library. 
Even if a resident does not have a Wikipedia page, it doesn't mean that they are not Notable to this commmunity. Frank Cefai, was the most notable of them all, for example.  
Also, the other reasons provided by LibStar, are incorrect - they include "article doesn't mention this suburb - and? maybe the Wikipedia article is wrong?, grew up in another suburb, played for a club in greystanes only, etc.
If LibStar actually took the time, even to research online, each of the people removed - he/she would find articles about these people and they actually LIVED in Greystanes. Each of these people have lived and been residents of Greystanes at some part of their lives. And the clubs in which they played for, was because they needed to be residents of Greystanes, in order to play or participate. You cannot attend Little Athletics, or play for Greystanes Rugby or Soccer clubs, if you do not live in Greystanes. 
For example, a comment made on Dani Stevens saying that she wasn't from Greystanes - here is an article where is states that her family moved to Greystanes - https://www.athletics.com.au/news/dani-stevens-from-little-athletics-to-the-olympics/. Further to that, she went to primary school in Greystanes and it was her school teacher, ny neighbour, who told me to add her.
The deletion of this content, after thorough research is actually vandalism of my work. Do not touch it.

replies: text: I will remove entries that do not refer to the suburb or no reference supplied that they lived in the suburb. You claim to have evidence for each person, please show that. LibStar (talk) 22:20, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: If you have done the research then include the citation in the article. Accusing me of vandalism is far fetched, I have made over 96,000 edits over 17 years on Wikipedia. No one has accused me of vandalism before. LibStar (talk) 01:36, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
