one of the poorer images of the city in the article, since it misses so much of the skyline and doesn't really show anything other than a random scattering of buildings - its difficult to get a sense of scale. I suppose there are pro's and con's to either image but I do agree with you that we needed more images of around Melbourne as well as the skyline itself.

We have an unpleasant situation about to develop over this action by one "cyberjunkie" ("cj"), who decided all of a sudden that he'd move the entire History section of the ABC article to a new daughter article, without replacing it with a summary. The history section was almost entirely written more

You have removed the panoramic image of Melbourne/Southbank twice, both times without justification. It is a featured picture and one of the better images in the article and I feel (somewhat subjectively) that it should remain. In future, could you discuss it on the article talk page as I feel have

Well, I was just being bold and putting it back in. I do agree that the image in question doesn't 'tell a story' but it does show the CBD/Yarra River/Southbank areas in relation to each other, which is pretty important for the geography of the city. If anything, the aerial image from the Rialto is

Since this action on 12 September, the section has languished with no text at all under its title, save a link to the daughter article.The action has, in effect, gutted the article, leaving what appear to be insubstantial fragments without a core. It's must be odd to the newcomer to be denied a

Now, it's not that I disagree with him that the History section was written in greater detail than you'd normally expect in summary style. (A related issue is that the rest of the article may need to be fleshed out in the opposite direction to achieve satisfactory summary coverage of the

you've put it if the section were expanded so that three/four pics wouldn't spell clutter. I'm not excluding your work, but I think sticking in photos like post-it notes for a later editorial change is a bit rich. I realise I should have put all this in the edit summary, though.

Diliff, there was a panorama of the city skyline from the Docklands (a featured photo of yours) which I transferred to the top of the article. I thought something really professional should come at the start, but that's since been reverted to the previous skyline shot, from the
