Merge
I am proposing to merge this article into Melbourne/Eastern suburbs. Individual suburbs rarely get their own articles, and this one is of no such significance. While I get that this is one of two major hubs of the eastern suburbs, it's not a tourist spot.

 * Without prejudice to the merge proposal, I disagree with the premise that "Individual suburbs rarely get their own articles". There are articles for many suburbs of New York, Paris, San Francisco and many other cities around the world, and why shouldn't there be? Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:53, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Ringwood isn't that popular as a Melbourne suburb. Really, it may be notable in the eastern suburbs, but it only makes its name on freeways in the eastern suburbs (like this one). SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta.wikimedia) 03:27, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Like I said, I'm merely stating that the premise for the merge is wrong, not opposing the merge. Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:36, 10 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Support, from experience it's just a residential suburb of Melbourne. Not exactly a destination that a lot of tourists would want to visit on its own. -- Lively Ratification  (talk)  21:00, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Support. There is nothing wrong with having an article about a place that tourists don't visit. Wikivoyage is a travel guide. People travel for a lot of reasons, including work, and visiting friends or family. Wikivoyage can provide information to these readers, too. But a list of bus routes and car rental places doesn't warrant an article. Hotels, restaurants, and maybe a place to see would warrant a separate article. Ground Zero (talk) 04:19, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
