Taiari / Chalky Inlet
- ... that according to Māori legend, the inner arms of Taiari / Chalky Inlet were created when the demigod Māui slipped over? Source: Kā Huru Manu ("There are two accounts of how Māui created the Sound. The first states that Māui slipped over and fell forward, causing both of his arms to instinctively extend out, creating Moana-whenua-pōuri and Te Korowhakaunu.")
- ALT1 ... that in 2022, over 100 traps were set to catch a single stoat on an otherwise predator-free island in Taiari / Chalky Inlet? Source: Department of Conservation ("The stoat on Chalky Island has been seen on-camera, but so far has avoided the 100 stoat traps that have been set.")
ALT2 ... that photos taken in Taiari / Chalky Inlet by Alfred Henry Burton contributed to support for establishing Fiordland National Park? Source: Te Papa ("His Views of Fiordland helped to convince authorities to have the area set aside as a national park.")- Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Drake (musician)

Overall: 
@Turnagra: Good article. But, there's a hook citation problems. Alt2 doesn't even mention the chalky inlet so I can't verify that hook in there. Either tell me where it mentions the inlet or get rid of the hook. Onegreatjoke (talk) 13:41, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks Onegreatjoke - would it be enough to include it alongside the photo from Burton in the article with some minor rewording? This way it'd be showing that his photos of Fiordland, as referenced in the source, included trips to this inlet. Turnagra (talk) 17:43, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
- @Onegreatjoke: just wondering if you had any thoughts on my suggestion above? Happy to remove that hook if necessary, but I think the image could be a good inclusion anyway so wanted to float that first. Turnagra (talk) 10:19, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
- @Turnagra: The problem with alt2 is that the source doesn't seem to mention the Chalky inlet at all. So I can't verify if what the hook is saying is true. Onegreatjoke (talk) 19:22, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
- @Onegreatjoke: I was hoping that including the photo he took in the inlet would demonstrate that the photos he took of Fiordland per the source included this inlet, but all good - I'll just strike that one. Turnagra (talk) 19:39, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
- @Onegreatjoke: apologies for the follow up ping again, just wondering if you had any further thoughts or if it'd be possible to progress this? Turnagra (talk) 05:20, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
The others are fine. Onegreatjoke (talk) 13:35, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
