Port Macquarie

edit

Port Macquire being a city is not a matter that you or I or random websites decide. It is the NSW Government who decides. Legislation from 1966 gives the NSW Geographic Names Board the power to manage these things. Please see their Glossary of designation values in the Geographical Names Register. It defines a city as "A centre of population, commerce and culture with all essential services; a town of significant size and importance, generally accorded the legal right to call itself a city under, either, the Local Government Act, the Crown Lands Act or other instruments put in place by government." Under which of those acts or instruments has the NSW government declared Port Macquarie to be a city? If there is one, then it's a city. If there isn't, it isn't. I have previously advised you of more effective courses of action to demonstrate the importance of Port Macquarie through improving the article's coverage of its economy, facilities, etc. Kerry (talk) 08:56, 23 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
