First Victorian lockdown

The page says "On 30 June, the Victorian Government re-enforced local lockdown" but never states when the FIRST lockdown was.

Would be nice to have a section that is just dates of lockdowns. ie VIC 1st Lockdown March xx - Jun xx yynumber of days

  VIC 2nd lockdown July xx - Oct xx  yynumber of days

Article split required? Prose Size >100kb

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.

The result of this discussion was to split the articles into yearly segments 2020 and 2021 as done for other country timelines. Aeonx (talk) 01:30, 14 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This article is too long, the document statistics as of 12 August 2021:

HTML document size: 1172 kB
Prose size (including all HTML code): 173 kB
References (including all HTML code): 615 kB
Wiki text: 295 kB
Prose size (text only): 103 kB (17258 words) "readable prose size"
References (text only): 84 kB

Following WP:SIZERULE, I believe this article is due for a split, my initial suggestion is to separate by year, ie. 2020 and 2021.

We can do what they did with Timeline of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States, splitting it into 2020 and 2021. JMonkey2006 (talk) 07:26, 12 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support a by year split, this is only going to get longer. CMD (talk) 07:40, 12 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Agree @Aeonx: Split into years. 220 of ^ßorg 12:06, 12 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: @Aeonx: I think the Statistics of the COVID-19 pandemic in Australia page is even more in need of trimming, splitting or whatever as many cites (№ 202 – 241) don't appear at all on that page. 220 of ^ßorg 12:27, 13 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
