Talk:Gulaga / Mount Dromedary

Untitled

According to what I've read, this mountain is in Tasmania, not NSW...—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mike65535 (talk • contribs) 09:54, 30 July 2006 (UTCAEST +10 hours)

You read wrong. Moreover, this article has references. Perhaps looking at them before making comments might help. A search of the Australian gazetteer does not bring up a Gulaga in Tasmania. Perhaps you could provide a reference of what you've read. --A Y Arktos\^talk 10:05, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

My comment was based on wiki's redirecting me from Mount Dromedary to Mount Gulaga. It apparently assumes that there is only one Mt Dromedary and that it has been since renamed Gulaga. I believe that is wrong. Unless I misundertand what I am finding, there is conflicting information. In an email conversation with a self-proclaimed Tasmanian resident, I was told there most certainly is a Mt Dromedary on Tasmania. Doing a little searching of my own (first link is somewhat ironically wikipedia itself):

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protected_areas_of_Tasmania_(Australia) -----(look down about 1/2 way under "forest reserves")

http://www.pabha.dhamma.org/ -----(top of page it says: "Mount Dromedary (Hobart), Tasmania")

http://www.realestate.com.au/directory/land_for_sale/tas/east_coast_region/dromedary.html -----(A real estate page which has references to homes on Tasmania that are at "the base of Mt Dromedary")

http://www.istc.org/sisp/index.htm?fx=location&loc_id=146335 -----(A travel guide which references Mt Dromedary on Tasmania)

http://www.indexmundi.com/zm/as/1480.htm -----(this page says there are several mountains in Australia named Mt Dromedary!)

http://maps.google.com -----(enter -42.71666 147.11666 and zoom in and you should find a Mount Dromedary road)

• Firstly, you didn't make it clear in your intital post that you were talking about Mt Dromedary, not Mt Gulaga - bit confusing, another good argument for citng your sources straight up, it would have been then obvious what you were talking about. Happy to note that there is a Mt Dromedary in Tasmania. Is it notable, does it have a wikipedia article? Will it get one soon? As per the Wikipedia:Manual of Style (disambiguation pages), we only disambigate redlinks when we are confident that an encyclopedia article could be written on the subject. ... Adding links to articles not yet written should be done with care. There is no need to brainstorm all occurrences of the page title and create redlinks to articles that are unlikely ever to be written, or likely to be removed as insufficiently notable topics.. For the moment I will put a redirect tag onto the top of this one. Mt Dromedary in NSW named by Cook is relatively more notable in my opinion than the Tasmanian one but perhaps that is my limited geographical perspective. Happy to discuss further when, and if, the Tasmanian article is written.--A Y Arktos\^talk 20:57, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

• • I have created a disambiguation page at Mount Dromedary (disambiguation) and a top link redirect on this article to redirect to that Dab page. There are of course more Mt Dromedary's than those in Australia but to date there appears no conflict with the one at Tilba Tilba.--A Y Arktos\^talk 21:38, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Great article, some citations could be used in the natural landscapes and mining sections. Pepephend (talk) 16:22, 20 November 2012 (UTC)
