About four years ago or more - 'state suburbs' some 'localities' were sourced from government documentation were either created, or included in existing articles. They were challenged at an AFD discussion, and they were not removed. The 'state suburb' is neither a reality in the geographic sense, nor were they specifically of any 'use' - in that they were simply allocating names to land otherwise 'not allocated' to existing localities. In most cases there not even road signs or indications on current or earlier road maps. They exist as 'named' spaces that in human reality are neither suburb or locality or with any signs to their existence - but a way of 'tidying up' land not otherwise specified in the Tasmanian landscape. As this is one of the lowest visited/looked at state noticeboards, this is stage one of trying to separate the 'localities' that in effect do not exist, to place them in a separate list, and remove the material from existing articles, as running past local resident tasmanians abut the subject show a particular disdain for the specifications.

In the past to get a response here is slow and drawn out. The process of change will be tedious, but it is needed, as such localities are in fact not localities, but paper creations for some very bizarre purpose that does not constitute encyclopediac standards.

There is the possibility that part of the argument for the unusual locality designations come from - https://www.thelist.tas.gov.au/app/content/data/geo-meta-data-record?detailRecordUID=852d4844-2692-4273-8689-6e61ff2d72d3 JarrahTree 09:21, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

There is no way that it is actually a locality in any sense of the word - it needs to be identified as what it is - a 'construct' of otherwise unallocated land. JarrahTree 09:28, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

There is currently a discussion over discussions of merging articles about Ricky Ponting where made incorrectly or not. Some appears to have left a redirect without merging content Servite et contribuere (talk) 04:39, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

There is currently an article for Draft:Cricket Tasmania Premier League that is being drafted. I requested the deleted article to be undeleted so we could provide sources instead of just deleting. If anyone wants to help you are welcome to. Thank you Servite et contribuere (talk) 14:55, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
