Port Phillip Bay[edit]

There should be a picture of the bay in this article. It's kinda important. And probably something about the Mornington Peninsular, since it is within the boundaries of the greater urban area. 203.97.184.160 (talk) 21:41, 21 December 2015 (UTC)

Good idea, eg a picture of the Melbourne skyline from the Bay. 09:53, 27 October 2016 (UTC)Stuart Onyeche (talk)

Video[edit]

Play media

Mid 1950s Melbourne showing period automobile, fashion, trams and the facade of The Australian Hotel with Pilsener Beer advertisement.

Hi there, I have added this video twice but it has been removed. Why? It is a short, very broad scope video snippet which I think shows a huge amount of 1950s Melbourne. It is ideal, unique, Wikipedia only content. Why not keep it? prat (talk) 00:24, 29 April 2017 (UTC)
