Eastern Suburbs
[edit]This template should agree with existing maps of Sydney. In particular, existing government maps generally consider the Eastern Suburbs to extend all the way south to La Perouse Daceyvillain (talk) 08:45, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- Please see discussion at https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/South-Eastern_Sydney, in particular, the article is being considered for deletion. It is not appropriate to add it to this map. Daceyvillain (talk) 08:50, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- Aside from your confounding strong disdain towards the south-east and whether or not it should be on the map. I did add useful accurate regions to the map which didn't exist before. Unfortunately Daceyvillain has taken a strong disliking towards anything I do at this point. 2405:6E00:289:B4FC:A535:DF74:821E:5DAB (talk) 08:55, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- You have been previously told to gain consensus first before making these changes. You have a strong crusade for including South East Sydney on Wikipedia and have failed to discuss/defend your position on the deletion discussion. Secondly you should really create an WP:ACCOUNT rather than switching IP addresses every few days. LibStar (talk) 08:59, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- I feel very attacked for trying to improve accuracy. I understand you're trying to follow the rules on Wikipedia but really at the end of the day all the information I'm adding is really not making Wikipedia worse. I guess no one likes a vigilante. 2405:6E00:289:B4FC:A535:DF74:821E:5DAB (talk) 09:03, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- you have failed to respond to my points. Why the reluctance to discuss on the deletion page where there is no reliable sources defining the South Eastern Suburbs? Why the reluctance to create an account? LibStar (talk) 09:06, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- Perhaps you should read everything from my perspective and imagine your own messages were someone speaking to you. Would you really bother creating an account if this is the treatment you get from other Wikipedia editors when you're only trying to improve Wikipedia's content. 2405:6E00:289:B4FC:A535:DF74:821E:5DAB (talk) 09:10, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- Again you fail to answer the questions, they are not hard. Wikipedia works on WP:CONSENSUS. Something you fail to do. LibStar (talk) 09:13, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- I feel we could end this silly debate diplomatically and in a civilized way but I keep getting shut down. I've even acknowledged that the south-east is part of the Eastern Suburbs in the larger sense because at the end of the day the region isn't that large and cutting it in half makes them both like micro regions. I was the one who wrote that the south-east is a sub-region of the eastern suburbs. The point I'm trying to make which I keep getting dismissed about is that the two regions are significantly different, the contrast is actually very large. I know this because I've lived in the region my whole life and while the 'Eastern Suburbs' may say it's Watsons Bay to La Perouse I know that putting those two ends in one category is kind of humorous. If you ask any person from the east if Matraville and Double Bay are both the 'Eastern Suburbs' they'd laugh because the thought of comparing those two suburbs and putting them in the same category is actually a very funny thought. If you lived in the area you'd understand and agree that while it may all be the 'Eastern Suburbs' the south-east is very different to the rest of the east. Again none of this means much to you because you just want statistics, links, references, boundaries, maps etc but when it comes to cultural, demographic and socioeconomic differences between areas if you live it you see it more than it could ever be on paper. Once again I'm only adding accuracy and real life experience to better improve information. I'm not about to start editing regions of cities I have no experience living in. I've provided you with all the reasons why the areas are different already and the list was long but it's never good enough so why would I keep trying to argue with a brick wall and even bother making an account over something so trivial. I'm not vandalizing Wikipedia and I don't believe the south-east is better than the rest of the east I just know they're completely different areas where residents in each don't really travel to the other and I'm just sharing that knowledge. 2405:6E00:289:B4FC:A535:DF74:821E:5DAB (talk) 09:30, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- Wikipedia is based on reliable sources, not hearsay, personal opinion, or knowledge because you live in that area, that is considered original research. For weeks, you have been stubbornly adding in south east Sydney to suburbs without consensus or reliable sources and actually edit warring and trying to avoid scrutiny by changing IPs and a total avoidance to creating an account. LibStar (talk) 09:40, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- and once again you're attacking me thinking I'm intentionally doing something to Wikipedia's demise and trying to spite you so what's the point in trying to prove myself. 2405:6E00:289:B4FC:A535:DF74:821E:5DAB (talk) 09:44, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- I'm not attacking you merely pointing out how you have not abided by Wikipedia policy. Please read WP:CONSENSUS, WP:SPA and reliable sources. LibStar (talk) 09:52, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- It is OK if different types of people live in the same area. The boundaries of the Eastern Suburbs don't need to be redefined to include only one type of people.
- You keep picking on Matraville for some reason - do you know that the Eastern Suburbs Crematorium was opened in Matraville in 1938?
- https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/239986573
- That area of Matraville is now called the Eastern Suburbs Memorial Park
- https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Eastern_Suburbs_Memorial_Park Daceyvillain (talk) 03:17, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- Good pick up. But according to anon IP it must be called "South Eastern Sydney Memorial Park"! LibStar (talk) 03:26, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- https://www.randwick.nsw.gov.au/about-us/news/news-items/2022/june/community-celebrates-as-new-laws-pass-prohibiting-matraville-incinerator
- Well according to that article by the government site of City of Randwick it's a south-eastern Sydney suburb. But hey what do I know when a suburb like Matraville is so obviously in the same area as a suburb like Point Piper, silly me.
- I guess someone better tell these waste management businesses in Botany and Matraville that the south-east doesn't exist either, silly them.

- business listings don't confirm a boundary or which suburbs make up the "south east region". Where is a definitive map of the south east published in a reliable source?
- Comment From an official report of Council, https://www.woollahra.nsw.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0010/132769/Eastern_Suburbs_Economic_Profile_2013.pdf
- This economic profile is a joint initiative of Randwick City Council, Waverley Municipal Council and
- Woollahra Municipal Council as local government authorities located in the Eastern Suburbs sub-region
- of the Sydney Metropolitan area.
- The Eastern Suburbs study area is a sub-region of the wider Sydney metropolitan area, located east and
- south-east of the Sydney Central Business District. The Australian Bureau of Statistics identifies the
- Eastern Suburbs as an SA3 statistical subdivision that includes the local government areas of Waverley,
- Woollahra and Randwick.
- The Eastern Suburbs extends from the peninsula of South Head at Watsons Bay in the north to
- La Perouse on Botany Bay in the south. The northern part of the Eastern Suburbs comprises the affluent
- suburbs of Vaucluse, Rose Bay, Darling Point, Dover Heights, Double Bay, Point Piper, Watsons Bay, and
- Bellevue Hill. Centrally located to the Eastern Suburbs is Centennial Park, surrounded by the suburbs of
- Woollahra, Paddington, Bondi Junction, Queens Park, Randwick, Kensington, Clovelly and Coogee. To the
- south, the area includes suburbs such as Maroubra, Matraville, Malabar, Little Bay and La Perouse.
- In total, the Eastern Suburbs covers an area of around 58 square kilometres, incorporating 34 suburbs.
- The Eastern Suburbs features an extensive coastline, including some of Sydney’s most popular and best known beaches such as Bondi, Tamarama, Bronte, Clovelly, Coogee, Maroubra, Malabar, Little Bay and
- La Perouse. The region also borders Sydney Harbour to the north and Botany Bay to the south.
- LibStar (talk) 03:44, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- Better tell the Australian Bureau of Statistics they're showing the Eastern suburbs as wrong. https://abs.gov.au/census/find-census-data/quickstats/2021/118 LibStar (talk) 03:49, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- So that report describes the suburbs within Woollahra Council as 'affluent' and goes onto to say that Maroubra, Matraville, Malabar, Little Bay and La Perouse are in the south. Sounds like everything I've been saying is included in an official report, that definitely couldn't be possible considering I've been conducting incorrect 'original research'. Better google some more references that say Matraville is part of the 'Eastern Suburbs' and not the south... 203.49.228.129 (talk) 03:56, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- Better rename South Sydney High School to South Eastern Sydney High School to suit your argument. Haha. LibStar (talk) 03:58, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- Just a school in Maroubra having the title of 'south' is enough for me. haha. 203.49.228.129 (talk) 04:00, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- If Randwick was going to merge with Waverley wouldn't it be right to call it "Eastern and South Eastern Suburbs Council". After all, Randwick Council residents don't shop at Westfield Bondi do they? https://www.randwick.nsw.gov.au/about-us/news/news-items/2015/may/randwick-citys-future-position-announced LibStar (talk) 04:03, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- Give it time and the three of them will merge with City of Sydney to be the inner-city council of Sydney. But yes, residents of Matraville don't shop at Westfield Bondi if that's your question. 203.49.228.129 (talk) 04:08, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- and if you live at Clovelly or Coogee you don't go to Bondi? LibStar (talk) 04:09, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- page 10 of this. https://www.randwick.nsw.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0020/327170/State-of-our-City-Report-2021-web.pdf "Our local government area covers 37.42 square kilometres (3,742 hectares) and includes the 13 suburbs of Chifley, Clovelly, Coogee, Kensington, Kingsford, La Perouse, Little Bay, Malabar, Maroubra, Matraville, Philip Bay, Randwick and South Coogee. It is located in the eastern suburbs of Sydney". Someone at Council better get the sack for not calling in South Eastern Sydney! LibStar (talk) 04:08, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- page 11 of official annual report. https://www.randwick.nsw.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0007/357397/2021-22-Annual-Report.PDF "Randwick City is located in the eastern suburbs of Sydney, bounded by Waverley Council to the north, the Pacific Ocean to the east, Botany Bay to the south and the City of Sydney and Bayside councils to the west."

- Here is what the report from those councils actually says
- "The Eastern Suburbs extends from the peninsula of South Head at Watsons Bay in the north to La Perouse on Botany Bay in the south.
- The northern part of the Eastern Suburbs comprises the affluent suburbs of Vaucluse, Rose Bay, Darling Point, Dover Heights, Double Bay, Point Piper, Watsons Bay, and Bellevue Hill.
- Centrally located to the Eastern Suburbs is Centennial Park, surrounded by the suburbs of Woollahra, Paddington, Bondi Junction, Queens Park, Randwick, Kensington, Clovelly and Coogee.
- To the south, the area includes suburbs such as Maroubra, Matraville, Malabar, Little Bay and La Perouse."
- i.e.
- The report divides the Eastern Suburbs into a northern part, a central part, and a southern part for ease of description
- But the report does not pretend that only the northern part is the actual Eastern Suburbs. Which is what you have been falsely claiming. Daceyvillain (talk) 04:09, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- it does not say "South eastern Sydney" LibStar (talk) 04:11, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- Well I wouldn't say it's a false claim when you can check any map and see which suburbs are south-east of the CBD and which suburbs are actually east. East is generally to the right. 203.49.228.129 (talk) 04:12, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- Re: maps
- We've shown you many government maps which clearly illustrate the Eastern Suburbs, but you have provided zero maps to illustrate "South Eastern Sydney" - besides a map which you tried to create yourself (this page).
- At this point, I think we should delete/merge the South Eastern Sydney page and move on.
- Wikipedia is based about facts, sources, citations, ..., but you are only offering your opinion. Daceyvillain (talk) 04:19, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- hey Daceyvillian, but if a couple of waste management companies say they're in the south east, then surely there must be a defined distinct south eastern region? People at Randwick Council and Australia Bureau of Statistics should get the sack for promoting an all encompassing Eastern Suburbs region down to La Perouse. LibStar (talk) 04:19, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- Someone should tell the people buying $10-$15m houses in South Coogee and Maroubra, or the people buying $4-6m houses in Little Bay and La Perouse, that they are living in non-affluent areas. Daceyvillain (talk) 04:22, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- People of Bondi should be banned from driving on Anzac Parade or going to Prince of Wales Hospital. It should be like East and West Germany, they are different people and must be separated. LibStar (talk) 04:27, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- Sounds like you better contact Woollahra council and tell them that Double Bay is just as affluent as Maroubra, although you may hear cries of laughter from their end.
- But what I've really learnt from you two is that someone from NSW transport better be sentenced to life for creating the 'CBD and south east light rail' and not calling it the CBD and 'Eastern Subrubs' light rail. Clearly neither LibStar nor Daceyvillain sent them the memo that the south-east doesn't exist, silly them. 203.49.228.129 (talk) 04:26, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- where is the official map showing south eastern Sydney? LibStar (talk) 04:28, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- and people unlike in Greater Western Sydney are not allowed to have a region of more than 1 NRL club. LibStar (talk) 04:28, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- Oh no, someone in Mount Druitt is not earning the same as someone living in Parramatta and they follow different NRL teams and drive on different roads!! Yet they both live in Greater Western Sydney!! LibStar (talk) 04:38, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- By your logic we should also sentence the people who designed the Eastern Suburbs Railway to originally terminate at Kingsford/Daceyville?
- https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Eastern_Suburbs_railway_line
- It isn't clear how much thought was given to the naming of the new light rail. Probably very little thought. One of the stops is named after a private leagues club. Daceyvillain (talk) 04:37, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- Ohhhh, do you mean the eastern suburbs railway which doesn't terminate at Kingsford nor Daceyville but actually goes through Kings Cross and Edgecliff terminating at Bondi Junction? That One? 203.49.228.129 (talk) 04:41, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- Did you even look at the page? It was designed to terminate at Kingsford/Daceyville but they had to cut it short due to budget cuts.
- (They also cancelled the station at Woollahra - does that mean Woollahra isn't in the Eastern Suburbs?) Daceyvillain (talk) 04:42, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- The railway didn't go to Daceyville/Kingsford because it would serve the different race of South Eastern Sydney people. Much like how the Berlin Wall separated 2 different demographics. LibStar (talk) 05:02, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

- That's a real interesting article. LibStar (talk) 05:22, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- I was thinking that cars from South Eastern Sydney shouldn't be allowed to visit Bondi westfield, Bondi Beach etc. , perhaps we can make special number plates for South Eastern Sydney residents. Also this week's NRL game between Rabbitohs and Roosters should not go ahead as residents of each area shouldn't mix. It's a recipe for a disaster. LibStar (talk) 05:38, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- maybe we could modify this number plate. https://www.myplates.com.au/#/plate-summary/SS LibStar (talk) 05:41, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- The game is certainly going to be a receipe for disaster with a maelstrom of Matraville and Woollahra residents who previously wouldn't have come into contact with each other. I only hope the stadium is left in one piece.
- The residents of Randwick, Kingsford and Kensington should be told not to catch the light rail to the game however as it has incorrectly defined their suburbs as south eastern by the NSW Government. A Shameful mistake on their end, much like naming a stop after a juniors leagues club.

- The residents of Randwick, Kingsford and Kensington are still yet to see an official map showing South Eastern Sydney. But by forcing it into several Wikipedia articles, they hope it will be adopted officially despite Randwick Council annual report saying otherwise. LibStar (talk) 06:05, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- It's funny years ago I was on the other side of this argument defending the fact that the eastern suburbs encompasses the entire region while I'd have people telling me otherwise and as I got older I started to realise that there was a contrast and distinction between the areas and how strong that contrast actually is.
- Back to what you were saying about people of Coogee and Clovelly shopping at Westfield Bondi. I will say no resident in Woollahra and Waverley council shops at Westfield Eastgardens nor would they visit La Perouse recreationally even if they're from Queens Park or Bronte at the bottom of the region. When you condescendingly mentioned that Anzac Pde should be off limits to those residents in Woollahra and Waverley Council, it's something I would sarcastically say when people in the upper eastern suburbs would say they don't shop and/or have never been to Westfield Eastgardens. Like 'oh is Eastgardens too far south for you?' or 'is Eastgardens out of your area?', it would be such a tragedy if someone from Bronte would have to travel 15-20 Minutes to Eastgardens.
- I experienced this a lot when I Worked in Westfield Bondi and literally no one would ever be willing to drive to Eastgardens to get something in stock there. The responses I'd often get is 'That's near the Airport/Maroubra, it's quite far. I'm not driving there' and some people didn't even know where it was. 2405:6E00:289:B4FC:B013:7BAF:F32A:A32E (talk) 07:40, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

South-Eastern Sydney
[edit]As I understand from previous discussions here is that there was a former south-east article of Sydney deleted and merged with the larger article of Sydney's Eastern Suburbs which apparently got south-east sydney removed from this map. While perhaps the region isn't referenced enough to warrant its own article, on this Sydney template map acknowledging this part of Sydney is still useful as it is acknowledged in government sources (mostly transport and council LGA) to be somewhat different from other parts of the Eastern Suburbs. I don't understand why it's been a touchy topic. From my understanding south-east Sydney is centred around the Randwick LGA. South-Western Sydney is part of Greater Western Sydney but it's still acknowledged individually in its own respect. I've done a lot of research on Sydney regions and the various ways they get divided and I found these reliable sources (mostly government sources) that are dedicated to south-east Sydney giving the impression that it does exist in its own form in some way to warrant an inclusion on the map. I'm not interested however in carrying on any heated debates that previously went on regarding this topic. This is just what I found:

Whatever consensus concludes regarding what regions stay on this map, the coding for the spaced out complete map is:
