Talk:Melbourne Museum

Museum Victoria

This article gives no indication that the Melbourne Museum is part of Museum Victoria along with Scienceworks Museum and the "Immigration Museum, which is a redlink. There is not even a reference to these two Museums in the article, or a back link from the Scienceworks article. What is the best way to proceed - write Museum Victoria or just cross link between the articles. I welcome advice before wading in. --Bduke 07:35, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Exhibition redevelopment

Currently (late 2008) the Evolution Gallery is closed down completely, as it is being dismantled as part of the science exhibition redevelopment. Number 1 of permanent exhibitions is therefor not correct, as it is no longer permanent (until the new exhibitions are open that is). Should this be noted here?Rolf Schmidt (talk) 03:31, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Temporary exhibitions misplaced

Temporary exhibitions are listed as permanent exhibits. Article needs quite a bit of work. Nurg (talk) 01:22, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Largest Museum in the Southern Hemisphere claim

The article mentions that the museum is "...the largest museum in the Southern Hemisphere", with a reference to a website escape.com.au which makes the same claim, and which in turn has a link to the Melbourne Museum's website. There doesn't seem to be any such claim on the Melbourne Museum website. What is the metric to back up this claim, and where can it be found? Perhaps it's referring to visitor numbers or floor space, but there doesn't seem to be any indication of that.
