What the Central West encompasses

[edit]

I have removed mentions of Dubbo and towns around Dubbo from the article. Neither the NSW government (see here) or the Federal government (see here) consider the area around Dubbo to be in the Central West. The Central West is considered to be distinct from the Orana region (which is how the area around Dubbo is described). This means that the 'home-made' map used as an image in this article needs to be replaced with something more accurate, but I note that there seems to be a bit of disagreement between the NSW government map and the Federal government map as to the northeastern boundary of the Central West region (the area north of Lithgow).

Many of these areas have varied boundaries according to different sources. Mine came from the commonly used Bureau of Meteorology at [1]. These regions are the ones commonly used in the media for forecasts and flood warnings etc. The maps used in the Wiki articles are not good either with spelling errors etc.Cgoodwin (talk) 07:02, 26 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Commonly used does not mean correct; the Central West isn't a meteorological area. Cgoodwin, the edits you have made recently have located many towns in the Central West that properly are part of the Orana region. It's a bit hard to tell because of the size of the state government map, but there does appear to be some discrepancy between the state government map and the federal government map, by the look of it in the Rylstone - Kandos area. However both maps show Dubbo, Wellington and Mudgee local government areas and points north and west in the Orana region. We should look for written definitions for what constitutes the Orana region and what constitutes the Central West, but pending that I am content that the two government maps are pretty accurate.
