NSW newspapers
- Newspaper title - should also be the title of the Wikipedia article created for the newspaper
- Other title - other titles of the newspaper throughout its history, may include titles merged with the newspaper
- SLNSW catalogue reference - each newspaper should have a catalogue entry from SLNSW which can be used to verify publication dates, locations, etc
- Local library catalogue reference - where the newspaper is also in the collection of its local library, this catalogue record may also be used as a reference
- Other references - eg Country Conscience, which can be used as a reference for many regional NSW newspapers (NB - all newspapers listed in the table below are referenced in Country Conscience)
- Kirkpatrick, Rod (2000). Country Conscience: a history of the New South Wales provincial press, 1841-1995. Canberra: Infinite Harvest Publishing Pty Ltd. ISBN 0646402706.
