Talk:Crime in Western Australia

Move

I'm thinking this should be moved to Crime in Western Australia. It would be inconsistent with Crime in Sydney and Crime in Melbourne though. Any thoughts? -- Moondyne ≡ talk 08:51, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

As no-one objected, it's now moved. -- Moondyne ≡ talk 13:39, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

Street gangs

In the process of cleaning up Sword Boys, I have compiled some reason on other perth gangs: User:Jayvdb/Crime in Perth. I am not sure whether all of these street gangs require their own article; would it be appropriate for each street gang to be mentioned briefly here first? John Vandenberg 13:56, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Probably mention him? It was even one of the top 6 o'clock news stories on tv. here in *New Zealand*! We very rarely get crime way over in Perth mentioned here, thus must be quite big.

Why keep this article?

It seems to me that there is very low interest and work going into this article. The template at foot indicates that no other Australian state has a corresponding article, only the NT (and that, too, is very sketchy and uncomprehensive). I would suggest that we put both articles up for deletion--they are unencyclopedic and have negative value unless properly detailed and documented. Cheers, Bjenks (talk) 04:00, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

I've started doing a bit of a tidy-up of the structure of articles about crime by state, and although this one is still pretty thin, a couple of the others are being more actively worked on and I'm hoping that someone might get to this one sometime... Many of the citations are dead links and there's a bit of tidying to do before re-building. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 07:14, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
