Untitled[edit]

This page has just been created and has been updated once already and will be updated further when my references are to hand. I have stated why SOS is signifcant. Just google 'save our suburbs' and you will see instantly that this is the case if you are in any doubt. Please allow me to proceed in good faith rather than just deleting it. If you have anything to add about SOS, please do so. Thanks, Eyedubya 02:53, 28 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That's already a good start, and that indeed is what the {{hangon}} tag is for. Given that you're likely hard at work editing it, I'm sure passing admins will give it some time before deciding. Coren 03:02, 28 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Good job. You need to source those claims, now, but they are certainly sufficient to not warrant speedy deletion. Happy editing! Coren 03:33, 28 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Save Our Suburbs has been on the WikiProject Melbourne list for a long time. Good to see that someone has made a start on the article. - Cuddy Wifter 03:42, 28 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'd recommend adding a criticisms section. Nick carson (talk) 11:22, 17 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

community group or party?[edit]

Is the article about the community group or the political party?

The article says:

Save Our State (SOS), formerly known as Save Our Suburbs, is a community group ... ... SOS [secured] registered political party status in New South Wales ... The party changed its name to "Save Our State" in 2010.

The external links indicate that the community group is still called Save Our Suburbs, not ... State. Perhaps only the party changed its name, not the group. Mitch Ames (talk) 02:22, 26 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
