Electoral district of Pyrmont
Pyrmont was an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly in the Australian state of New South Wales that was created in the 1904 re-distirbution of electorates following the 1903 New South Wales referendum, which required the number of members of the Legislative Assembly to be reduced from 125 to 90.[1] It consisted of the abolished seat of Sydney-Pyrmont and part of the abolished seat of Sydney-Denison.[2][3][4] It was abolished in 1913 and the district re-distributed to Belmore, Darling Harbour and Phillip.[5]

gollark: No, it's bee.
gollark: Well, you might want to put a link to the page "Bees" in the middle of a sentence saying something like "the best kind of bee is an apiaristic bee". But `the best kind of [[bees|bee]] is an apiaristic bee` looks slightly bad. So if you give the "Bees" page the name "Bee" too, it looks nicer.
gollark: (it should be simple enough using the existing fuzzy search infrastructure)
gollark: I intend to add tab-completion later.
gollark: You could simply remember it, instead.
