Are they all in the CBD?

[edit]

The lead sentence of List of streets in Perth is "Perth and Northbridge", the article is in Category:Streets in Perth central business district, Western Australia, but Perth#Central business district stops at the railway line and excludes Northbridge. Actually Perth#Central business district says "the railway reserve formed [past tense] a northern border ... Perth City Link ... the railway line, to link Northbridge and the CBD". Do we now consider the CBD to include Northbridge? Do we have a ref that says so explicitly? Should we reword the aforementioned article section to say so explicitly? Note that "linked Northbridge and the CBD" does not mean "Northbridge is now part of the CBD". (The Narrows Bridge links Perth (suburb) with South Perth, but the former does not include the latter.)

Category:City of Perth

[edit]

The article is in Category:City of Perth, but I don't think this is correct. If we think it appropriate to categorize a list of streets by LGA then Category:Streets in Perth central business district, Western Australia should be in Category:City of Perth, and thus List of streets in Perth would not need to be in Category:City of Perth directly (per WP:SUBCAT).

According to the Northbridge article it was part of the CBD until 1982, it this suburb name complexity that makes it logical to incorporate the two in one list as most historical document refer to the area as Perth. We also have category Streets of Perth which is referring to Perth Metro area rather than suburb or LGA. I think Category:Streets in the City of Perth is the best option as many will overlap multiple burbs anyway. Gnangarra 12:57, 14 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
