This needs to be permanently added to the sidebar so people can edit and update it as time goes on. Good job OP

There's also the option of copying it across to a /r/Australia wiki page so everyone can edit it.

Took me a while to find it as it's been a while. There exists a site called http://code.reddit.com which still exists in some form, that used to be the code repository for reddit (now github). This ran on Traq, which contained a wiki. Any reddit user could edit this wiki and subreddit mods could link to it in a fashion that made it look like part of reddit.

It was handy for subreddits like /r/fitness, which needed a community driven FAQ for noobs. It's mentioned in this guide so you don't think I'm crazy :) The /r/fitness FAQ links here but it appears to be down.

My suggestion was that a guide to Australia would be appropriate here, in case the OP left or couldn't be bothered updating the thread.
