Hi, I notice that you've been editing telephone numbers in Australia quite a bit. I work in Directory Assistance for one of Australia's largest telcos, and I'd like to make a suggestion ... maybe we could fix up the "geographic numbers" section? For example, the (03) 57xx area is described in the article as "Alexandra, et al." Alexandra is an almost dead little town, but in the version of Electronic White Pages I use at work, the (03) 57 directory is called "Wangaratta", the largest town in the 57 area.

Maybe it would be better if the geographic numbers section if the area codes were named after the electronic versions of White Pages I use?

Thanks for your comments - they are much appreciated. I agree, and I'll watch out for more similar limitations, and I did change a few already. I took most of them from the ACMA data, and I found a few errors there, including some numbering ones. An other resource is a "Green Pages" CD, from May 2003 - a shame directory CDS aren't readily available any more. I wasn't all that familiar with rural Victoria, and checked some on the Net as well. Do feel free to make any further suggestions, too! Xgentric (talk) 08:52, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
