 * Keep Apparent a major government statistical publication. Does need better refs.    DGG ( talk ) 23:27, 9 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. It's a fundamental government statistical publication. Don't be dopey. Rebecca (talk) 00:42, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. Well-sourced to national government websites, well-written, interesting, and notable. A search of Google books finds "reliable sources that are independent of the subject" numbering in the hundreds. First Light (talk) 02:28, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep As creator, I agree that it needs better refs, but it's the primary measure of advantage/disadvantage produced by the official national statistical agency for Australia and can be used to like-for-like compare different areas in Australia. Its main use would be by NGOs, academics and government agencies (especially those dealing with low socioeconomic areas, such as housing, health, etc.) One example of its broader use is (actually an article critical on overdependence on it in policy making), and this academic paper in an independent national journal which used it to examine mortality in Sydney by area over time.
