Separate page for the Local Government Area

edit

As per discussion at Talk:List of Sydney suburbs, I have created a separate page for the Municipality of Hunter's Hill, the Local Government Area. -- Ianblair23 06:57, 30 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

Spelling

edit

Isn't the name of the suburb Hunters Hill and Hunter's Hill is a misspelling? The NSW Geographical Names Board has no entries for Hunter's Hill at all. Have a think about it and then I'll come back and do a move and a tidy up Bleakcomb (talk) 12:59, 14 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Totally agree with you there. The NSW Geographical Names Board decided quite some time ago that place names will not contain apostrophes. The local council though has not changed the name of the local government area though. I support the page being moved. J Bar (talk) 13:44, 14 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
That's correct - no apostrophes in NSW place names. NSW Dept of Local Government list the LGA as The Council of the Municipality of Hunters Hill. (no apostrophe) The Council website is shite. They can't even get their own name right. They use either the name or the misspelling. Lets get some more opinion here and I'll attack it next week. Thanks for your response JBar.

You should go ahead with the move, this is correct. --User:Adam.J.W.C. (talk) (talk) 00:46, 15 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

One thing I have noticed is that the apostrophe form is used in the ABS geographic dataset. This maybe where some of that usage is coming from in WP. We should retain a redirect from Hunter's Hill if someone comes from ABS based statistics to WP. Bleakcomb (talk) 03:54, 16 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

  Done - moved. I left the redirect deleted beneath its new home since its history was trivial. Splash - tk 23:23, 17 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Masonic Temple

edit

I noticed J Bar you put the picture of the Masonic Temple back in. I had moved it to the lower general gallery (Landmarks, IIRC). I had also deleted the text listing the Masonic Temple from the list of churches. Freemasonry is not a religion and Masonic Halls are not churches. You will probably cause offence by leaving it there and insinuating such. I moved the image to the other gallery so that it wouldn't be dropped off and lost. But, I concede the resulting five images in the lower gallery wrapped, looked ugly and needed to be edited somehow. But the Masonic Temple image shouldn't go back into the churches gallery.

I mostly moved the photo there for aesthetic reasons, but I must admit that I thought Freemasonry was a religion. You live and learn, I guess. Cheers. J Bar (talk) 23:07, 17 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

North Shore

edit

I've noticed that Hunters Hill, Gladesville, and other surrounding suburbs have been listed as being on the Lower North Shore, however, every definition of the North Shore I've been able to find says the North Shore ends and the Lane Cove River. Under this definition Hunters Hill would be excluded from the North Shore and should instead be placed in the Northern Suburbs. Gladesville's page cites a Domain Property article, which lists Gladesville in an article on the North Shore. However, the site does not appear to constantly categorise this area as the North Shore, as Both Hunters Hill and Gladesville have been left off the property map for the Lower North Shore. I do plan to edit all these suburbs to change them from North Shore to Northern Suburbs, I just wanted to check if anyone has sources that would definitively show Hunters Hill is on the North Shore before I made these changes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AbandonedLine79 (talkcontribs) 04:16, 17 August 2020 (UTC)Reply


I agree with this distinction. Even on the linked wikipedia article the north shore is defined as the area between the Lane Cove River and Middle Harbour. Hunters Hill the suburb and the council are to the west of the Lane Cove River. This clearly puts it in the northern suburbs, not the lower north shore. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Finniewinnie (talkcontribs) 04:21, 17 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
