Hi - I'll make copyedits as I go (please revert if I inadvertently change the meaning) and jot queries below: Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 03:16, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

• Prosesize is only 15kb, so room for expansion if needed :)

• As of 2021, the local group continue to pursue native title rights over the suburban region, including Bedford - worth expanding if any extra information is available.
  • This statement was written by another editor, and to me, sounds vague. Yes, there is land being transferred to traditional owners in the south-west, but not in Bedford. Steelkamp (talk) 05:53, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

• It was decided that the housing commission did need to built shops - "build"?
  • Fixed, thanks. Steelkamp (talk) 05:40, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

• The expanding population also caused the Catholic Church to establish a primary school on Wood Street in Bedford. A Catholic church was already existent in the suburb, and so St Peter's Primary School was constructed next to the church. - can be streamlined into 2 or 1 sentence
  • Simplified into 1 sentence. Steelkamp (talk) 05:40, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

• By the early 1970s, the development of Bedford was complete, the last road being Gummery Street in the suburb's north - ok this is the last street, but not sure that holds for development as a whole....?
  • Changed to "major development". Steelkamp (talk) 05:40, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

• Maybe the Name section should go further up the page...? Near establishment?
  • I've merged that section into other paragraphs. Steelkamp (talk) 05:53, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
    • Nice work Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 06:15, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

• The school moved down the street to a new site in 1942, that being its current site - why not just "The school moved down the street to its current site in 1942"
  • Done. Steelkamp (talk) 05:40, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

Looks pretty comprehensive overall. A nice read. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 04:15, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

I have addressed each of your suggestions. Steelkamp (talk) 05:54, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

NB: earwigs copyvio is clear

• If possible, add when the trams stopped running down Beaufort St.
  • Done. Steelkamp (talk) 04:19, 28 July 2021 (UTC)

• I guess - anything on most expensive residence sold (just thinking about giving as big a nudge as possible to FA-hood) - if no source nevermind...
  • I’ll have a look later. Steelkamp (talk) 04:19, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
  • I've had a look, and couldn't find anything on this. Steelkamp (talk) 13:48, 28 July 2021 (UTC)

• Nothing else newsworthy ever?
  • I’ll have a look later. Steelkamp (talk) 04:19, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
  • All I found was some news items on car crashes in Bedford, and this homicide from 2007 which I don't consider important enough to include in the article. Steelkamp (talk) 13:48, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
    • Thanks for looking. Agree those items are not notable. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 14:59, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
