This article has turned into more of a list. Perhaps it should be renamed and recategorized as such. I suggest "List of reasons for being in Australia". Any objections or suggestions for a better name?

Actually, I think I would like to keep it as is. It follows the United States in LOST model, and I have just created a page for Iraq & South Korea which follow the Nigerian model, and will create one for the UK. That way, we have the major countries Lost and Lost flashbacks are set in, and I will add them as templates to the Locations portal. --PandoraX 19:53, 1 September 2006 (PDT)
New look[]
Made a few changes to the page that I hope people like, such as the table for reasons of travel, and the floating table for main characters in each country (also did this for the other 5 important countries). I just wanted to leave a note about Oceanic here... the info I found about it being an Australian-based company was from the old site, before it was changed. I don't have it recorded anywhere, though, so just writing down the source here for posterity's sake if someone's looking for the source. --PandoraX 16:15, 19 February 2007 (PST)
Sam Toomey[]
I've added Sam Toomey to the living in Oz section rather than the native Aussie section because of Martha's comment in "Numbers") "MARTHA: That's right, they served together in the U.S. Navy.". According to About.com, "While the following Navy Ratings (Enlisted Jobs) do not require U.S. Citizenship, one must be a legal immigrant (with a green card) residing in the United States in order to join any branch of the United States Military. The Navy cannot and will not assist with immigration. One must legally immigrate first, and then apply to join the U.S. Navy. Once an immigrant joins the U.S. Military, normal residency requirements are waived and they can apply to become a United States Citizen, after 3 years of active duty (sometimes less, during periods of hostilities). One must be a U.S. Citizen to become a commissioned officer, or to re-enlist in the military.", which leads me to believe he was American. -- LOSTonthisdarnisland 23:48, 9 April 2008 (PDT)
