newspaper article external links and I AM NOT A LAWYER
I've wikified and edited and practically rewritten the whole article, but have left the lnks alone. I'm not sure if the links to articles are relevant to a wikipedia article. what do others think? I've also made it very legally based- nothing much more than a re phrasing of a few articlees summarising legalities elsewhere. anyone care to elaborate on the sociological, historical etc issues, i think that would help a lot. I'm not a lawyer, and may have missed crucial bits.WotherspoonSmith 14:33, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- I have added in some historical background, but there is an extensive sociological literature Mgoodyear (talk) 18:28, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Organisation
It may eventually be necessary to create separate pages by jurisdiction, with summaries on the main page. With such different systems in each part of the country, footnotes should probably indicate which State or territory they apply to. (I have done this for all notes to date) Mgoodyear (talk) 18:48, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
- I fail to see why we need a discussion of prostitution laws around the world in the first section - I suggest it be removed or moved to a general article on prostitution Mgoodyear (talk) 22:29, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

References
Unfortunately switching embedded external refs to footnotes creates a new problem, the links will all have to be converted from URLs to titles. I fixed a few Mgoodyear (talk) 18:58, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
- External links need cleaning up too Mgoodyear (talk) 02:34, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
Legality
There seems to be a little bit of discussion at the moment on the legality of prostitution in Australia. When I have time I will reference it, but for the moment my understanding is that there is a general prohibition on prostitution, except in the limited circumstances outlined in the article (i.e. at registered brothels). Comments welcome VeryRusty (talk) 06:51, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
- This document [[1]] while old, appears to have a good summary of the legality/illegality of prostitution. My conclusion is that while in some states an individual arrangement may not be illegal, that many of the related activities (advertising, finding a location, etc.) are in fact illegal. —Preceding unsigned comment added by VeryRusty (talk • contribs) 06:56, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
Split article
This article should be split, with the intro, the sections "History", "Health" and "Human trafficking in Australia" remaining part of this article, and each state/territory being moved to its own new article. eg Prostitution in New South Wales. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:2F0A:501F:FFFF:0:0:50C:DC01 (talk) 04:23, 12 March 2013 (UTC)
