I could use the map part for other places

Oh yeah. I haven't added the map data module for the SEQ location map. Last time i touched it was a few years ago, no?

Well, if I haven't added the map data module, it can't be a map. It's just a vector image

Template:Location map/Creating a new map definition

Wait... I DID add the map data! Don't know if it's right. And the documentation isn't there Module:Location map/data/Australia Queensland SEQ vs Module:Location map/data/Queensland

Also. Again, I don't want to replace the whole Queensland map, I just want this local map to sit *alongside*. Like how fucking Islip does it with their checkboxes or whatnot

2021-08-24 realised I could just take screenshot of OpenStreetMap, see https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Location_map_Australia_Sydney.png

remember Government of australia? The page we’re kind of working on? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Government_of_Canada May help https://peo.gov.au/understand-our-parliament/how-parliament-works/three-levels-of-government/

In other news, Shijiazhuang is a canonical location of one of the earth rockets, a mountain type (11,000 m tall) in A Wandering Earth. It is at the gateway to the Taihang mountain

It confuses me that the only rockets are in Asia and North America. Nothing on the Southern Hemisphere - or will Earth’s direction of travel be in a more polar direction?

Also, will the biosphere of earth survive the wandering? That’s the whole reason why you are bringing the earth rather than living on spaceships?

eh, maybe it will be like a deep freeze.

also, for anyone else here (ie FUTURE ME), you’re going to be spoiled for A Wandering Earth (novel) - there is a *rebellion* rather than *Jupiter’s tide* causing the problem. Rebellion is after rumours and observations that the sun hasn’t changed AT ALL during THE MANY DECADES (centuries???), hence why tf did we all move - it’s a hoax!

and then of course, once the coalition leaders have been sentenced to death and died (cold exposure with nuclear batteries of their suits ripped out as punishment)… the sun does a Helium flash.

well, I can see why the plot point was changed in the Chinese movie. Sure, the government of the novel was right all along… *but they were rolled!* In a coup! Rebellion! How very anti state. The feelings of the Chinese people are hurt. Ok, not really, it’s very popular novel in China but still. Less than ideal undertones for CCP

Can see why they’d replace it, even if plot to save Earth in film still involves some subversion - it’s against some AI, gone rogue? And not against a human regime nor the idea of moving earth

hawaii dem party apparently big-tent. Or, at least a little big-tentish. Gotten to point where even former GOP members switch over, whether for power or just to get things done

Any significant contributions?
I dunno. Not major but I feel nice about it. Even it its probably not a good idea just in case it gets reverted

when to overwrite maps and revisions
Minor stuff. Adding insets etc should be new file

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Overwriting_existing_files

Add pictures to The Glen. Make a new heading called Gallery and add some there.
Don't know if i should care about Eastland though

Make a page for the PB/5 Pedestrian Button
I mean - there's one for the puffin crossing. And this button, is EVERYWHERE in aus. I think. It's harder to find an old one.

The PB/5 Pedestrian Button, also called the Audio-Tactile Pedestrian Detector is the predominant design of pedestrian crossing button in Australia

Further expansion
In July 2016, Westfield submitted a $500 million expansion masterplan, aimed at competing against other shopping centres such as Eastland Shopping Centre to the City of Manningham and to the Minister for Planning (see First Andrews Ministry) for approval to expand by nearly a third with substantial car parking, and build a 14 story tower taller than the existing office tower that may stand out over the skyline. The plan would add 43,000 sqm of retail floor space and 18,000 sqm of office floor space (north of the existing building), increase the total number of carparking space to 7,575 (currently 2,793), building a 14 storey "gateway tower" on a 2 storey podium, reconfigure the bus interchange and move the main vehicle entrance on Williamsons Road further north. This was approved on the 20th May 2019 by the state government, with the Minister for Planning (see Second Andrews Ministry) Richard Wynne claiming 2,000 jobs will be created during construction, and 2,900 full and part time positions will be created upon completion.

Doncaster Dining
In November 2020, a new rooftop dining precinct, Doncaster Dining, was opened during Victoria's second COVID-19 lockdown. At a cost of $30 million, the existing second floor (in the southern section of the shopping centre, near Doncaster Road) and a section of the car park near Village Cinemas was renovated to include 12 new shops and remake 2 existing shops. The stores include TGI Fridays, an American grill; Dohtonbori, named in reference to Dōtonbori with its second Australian restaurant; Lanzhou Noodle House; and Little Bangkok Thai amongst others.

Eastern Suburbs Melbourne Map
Search up *wikivoyage Melbourne*. There should be a map that divides Melbourne into amongst others, northern western eastern and south-eastern suburbs. Use Wikidata entries for LGAS eg City of Manningham and find a way to highlight it (like down in Wikivoyage) to create a map of Eastern Suburbs; without using an SVG image like Cassowary whatsitface Did for mid-northern and Eastern Suburbs. Maybe I could also do middle or Inner LGA and Outer Eastern LGA (deeper shade of Green)

Add this, to the **suburbs of Melbourne** page

Melbourne - denser than you think
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Melbourne_density.jpg

Most of melbourne has AT LEAST 500 p/km^2, if not more than 1000 p/km^2. Webpage Geography of Melbourne claims average density is 16 p/ha... or 1600 p/km^2. Oh pooh, that actually sounds reasonable. For an average.

tho being fucked I think this https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Melbourne,_Australia_Population_Density_and_Low_Elevation_Coastal_Zones_(5457913124).jpg suggests Geelong is more vulnerable

For North East Link
Interchange table done, but some day should make a design section. Mention the express lanes.

The section about benefits - that's actually uncited. Maybe just rely on the government report.

Section about criticism of one option? Do it, for ALL the fucking routes. ABC, and the NEL report.

Include PTUA or similar criticism. Can't be from a blog

Past Councillors for Manningham, Whitehorse and maybe even Stonnington
Base it off this from City of Boroondara. Note that the page for City of Monash uses a simpler table. Looks messier. Then again they've also had electoral system changes

Use this https://web.archive.org/web/20051129014134/http://www.vec.vic.gov.au/lgelections.html#W

Actually, https://web.archive.org/web/20200328081912/https://www.vec.vic.gov.au/ElectoralBoundaries/WhitehorseProfile.html seems to work too! Even in early 2020 the site was fine but now they've basically just removed results before 2008... just cos.

Won't highlight changes in between councillor terms but would help a great deal, since VEC says you have to go through them for results older than 2008. Before 2008, council election terms weren't set. There were some council elections 2005 for Manningham and Whitehorse, but not Boroondara

''no online results before 2000 sadly. Ah well. Takes a while to get on the internet age.''

From 2000 to present, I have confirmed

Whitehorse had

 * Countback 2011, Koonung Ward (different incumbent had vacated) https://www.vec.vic.gov.au/results/council-election-results/council-by-elections-and-countbacks-timeline

means that a ward has two councillors

would be a three councillor ward

https://vexnews.wordpress.com/2008/09/29/out-peter-allan-quits/ Peter Allan, Central Ward? Hm, that blog suggests he used council money to pay for going into a brothel/strip-parlour in Canberra while on some local gov thing

Also Pauline Richards now represents (2018 state election) Cranbourne in lower house. Neat. Only a two year councillor, but still..

Seems I have to use an archive link from 2019 if I want to get proper urls - nowadays (2020, 2021) - you can get a url for 2008 election results, but when you click on the manningham link - the page changes, BUT YOU STILL HAVE THE SAME URL. ANd when in an archive, clicking on the manningham link doesn't work. ARGH.

do Shire of Central Goldfields? because that has Grace La Vella

If I ever want to know why the Territories have 2 senators each, stuck in a permanent 50:50 lab lib split?
An STV election for a district with only two seats will result in a largely unchanging result of each seat going to the most popular and second most popular party so long as neither party falls below a quota of 33.3% of the vote - similar results to the (non STV) Binomial System in Chile. This can also be observed in Australian Senate representation for the Australian Capital Territory and the Northern Territory; where each territory’s two senators have been divided by the two major parties. Balanced, bipartisan but uncompetitive representation by design

Also, woot/lmao/oh 2022 ACT Election - David Pocock got elected, displacing Liberal Party senator. The balance breaks!

This also relates to adding new states btw
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_proposed_states_of_Australia&oldid=1091257402

In relation to parliamentary representation, the Joint Select Committee on Electoral Reform in 1985 recommended that territories be entitled to


 * Separate representation from the ACT or NT once they have more than half a quota of population (for a House of Representatives seat)
 * A floor of two senators for the ACT and NT each
 * One extra senator for every two lower house members

and that new states should not have representation any more favourable than Territories as prescribed in the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918

MHS academic results
Swapping rows and columns. Only columns can be sorted. It would be more useful to sort ATAR between years, than ENTER vs ATAR vs Perfect score within one year (apples to apples, vs apples to bananas)

Also of note - results post 2008 don't actually have sources. Hm.

In terms of checking - copy original table, transpose in excel, then post my new table over it

Table for... cube root legislatures?
darn it was fun messing around in excel but it's a pain trying to convert it.
