There is a little inconsistency in naming of the JUG group pages:-
MJUG: joomla.org.au/the-melbourne-joomla-user-group/

Most of the others are of the form:-
SJUG: joomla.org.au/sydney-user-group/
PJUG: joomla.org.au/perth-user-group/ etc.

Personally, I would prefer URLs of the form joomla.org.au/melbourne-joomla-user-group/ ie with the "joomla" but without "the". Most important, though, is that we should be consistent. It looks like the "the-" in the MJUG URL comes from the dreaded SH404SEF.

I note with interest that AJUG has redirected the link to their comunity forum page joomla.org.au/community/jug/joomla-user-group-adelaide. I hope to do that too when JomSocial gets bedded down a bit better.

Patrick and the SEO mob first set the names in the footer links 'melbourne-user-group' so i just ran with them, naming the menu entries accordingly. However someone (in the meantime) changed the Melbourne menu entry. Dont know who or why - who needs 'the'?

So I'm still happy with 'XXX Joomla User Group' myself. Altho more correctly it should be 'Joomla! User Group xxxxx'

Adelaide redirected from a dead blog to an active community page. I suggest we will all do this once I get the community and home page integrated as one entity. The home page is essentially not useful as is and it's my next job to rejig it.
