Goals

  1. Write accurate, NPOV articles about topics related to Sydney.
  2. Be friendly and courteous to all participants - even if they do live in Melbourne ;)
  3. Respect the views of all parties, knowing that it's OK to disagree but not OK to abuse the other person for those views (or disagreements with your own views).
