• Luna Park Sydney - Former employee (Have performed a massive rewrite and expansion of the Park's article, with no input by any other members of staff or management. Also created articles on a major incident back in the late 1970s, and the parks former roller coasters. I am willing to go to whatever lengths to keep these as unbiased and NPOV as possible)
