Talk:Victoria Quay, Fremantle

Caption for 1894 plan is too long
The caption for the 1894 plan is far too long. I tried to punctuate in meaningfully, but it's still too hard to parse. If it were in the body text, I'd be using bullet points not one long sentence. I did contemplate just deleting the "notable features" sentence, but that might be just a bit too bold. Any other suggestions? Mitch Ames (talk) 13:08, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Yeah its a bit cludgy, same issue theres too many points of interest to highlight in the one use. Think maybe just remove but the image looses too much value. Maybe just pick whats the most significant point to highlight, there are more maps of freo to come earliest 1833 & 1834 Gnangarra 15:02, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
 * If the image "loses to much value" when you remove the caption, then it is not a very good image. Perhaps one should
 * edit the image to create a copy with points of interest marked (possibly just by numbers - see 3 below) on the image
 * put the image - full size - into the article
 * add descriptive text referencing the points marked on the image
 * Ie if the caption text is valuable (which I'm not disputing) move it into the article's main text. Mitch Ames (talk) 12:57, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Support, per nom. Primary with respect to usage and long-term significance. - Evad37 (talk) 01:29, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Long-term significance: Construction of Victoria Quay in Fremantle began in 1892, and completed in 1897. It has over 100 years of history, and been on the interim register of heritage places since 1999. The Scottish Victoria Quay was constructed between 1993 and 1996. (refs in articles) The Victoria Quay in Dublin is, it seems, not notable enough to have its own article.
 * Usage: Note that the page views are not the only statistic to determine primary usage. Google searches (with  to remove personal search bias) shows: "About 53,100 results" for "Victoria Quay" Western Australia, "About 65,200 results" for "Victoria Quay" Scotland, and "About 44,000 results" for "Victoria Quay" Dublin. None seem to be "more likely than all the other topics combined—to be the topic sought when a reader searches for that term", per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC - Evad37 (talk) 05:42, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
