[talk-au] Highway page and Aus tagging guidelines page is inconsistent

[Luke Woolley]

I go by the http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Australian_Tagging_Guidelines 
  Australian Tagging Guidelines which I edited a while back to say  
that for alphanumeric routes, motorway = m (if it's freeway  
conditions), trunk = m  (if it's dual carraigeway but not freeway  
conditions for example, the South Gippsland Highway) or trunk = A,  
primary = B, secondary = C and for South Australia, tertiary = D. This  
is how I have been tagging roads around Victoria. I need to fix up  
some roads around Kinglake which are marked primary when they should  
be secondary. The international tagging table in the highway article  
needs some fixing up.
