Hi Grey Rotorua. I notice that almost all your edits to NZ-related articles have been reverted. This can be a bit discouraging, so what you need to consider are the reasons for those reverts:

First, any edit summary which says "this is TRUE" or similar is going to raise a flag for any editor who looks at a change log. Editors normally assume that edits are correct unless there is reason to suspect otherwise.

Any non-trivial factual change you make must generally be accompanied by a reference to support that change.

Wikipedia strives to be factual - you can't just add opinions without attributing them to some reliable source.

In accordance with the Wikipedia:Manual of Style single digit numbers are spelled out as words (section 11).

Rather than have hard numbers for populations which might need regular updating, various links are used to automatically get the most up-to-date values.

I hope this gives you some idea as to what you need to consider when editing.

I will watch this page for any changes, so if you wish to discuss things further, just add your thoughts following this message. Murray Langton (talk) 21:05, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
