Does anyone have a definitive reference to say whether it was The Northam, Toodyay, and Victoria Plains Agricultural Society, or The Toodyay, Northam, and Victoria Plains Agricultural Society?
Google finds mostly instances of "Toodyay, Northam ..." (even when I search for Northam, Toodyay and Victoria Plains Agricultural Society without quotation marks) including multiple contemporaneous newspaper articles from the 1800s. The only Trove articles I could find that say "Northam, Toodyay ..." are:
so I'm inclined to think that "Toodyay, Northam ..." is correct. Mitch Ames (talk) 00:48, 18 June 2017 (UTC)
It is a fallacy to think there is/was a correct name. Rabbit hole and waster of time. The usage of trove (which has verbatim copy of how it appeared in the 1870s) is sufficient - to actually consider whether the reporting of the name in variant manners deserves no time, no extra thought. You find a ref, use the form found - to ponder whether there is such thing as correct misses the point of what references are about JarrahTree 04:17, 18 June 2017 (UTC)
(In response to e-mail of 2018-04-10 from Elrebe56, re these edits )
@Elrebe56: All West Toodyay articles should appear in Category:West Toodyay (or subcategories thereof), and you can get to that category from the Category link at the bottom of each West Toodyay article.
We could create a standalone list article "List of places in West Tooday" article, and/or a navigation template. ("Towns in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia" at the bottom of West Toodyay is an example of a navigation template. We can have more than one of these, and they can have more complex formatting - see the bottom of Perth for example.)
Personally I'm not a fan of the duplication with the category, but WP:NOTDUP explicitly allows such duplication.
In some cases the "See also" section is an appropriate place to link to other related articles, but it is not suited to listing all articles in the area.
(I haven't checked the other refs yet to establish whether the Depot is part of the "precinct", but WP:SYN might be a problem.)

I disagree with these edits, adding to the list of places in the heritage listed precinct, for two reasons:
Perhaps, per #West Toodyay "landing page" above, a navigation template would be better. Mitch Ames (talk) 13:22, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
Independently of the #List of places in the precinct, the map is quite good (kudos to Samwilson for creating it). Given that the map follows the text "The precinct ...", is it feasible to add the boundary of the aforementioned precinct (e.g as inHerit does) to it. Mitch Ames (talk) 13:29, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
