Wadestown page move

Hi, I originally created the Wadestown page, and I specifically named it Wadestown, New Zealand because there was already a Wadestown, West Virginia page at the time. The Wadestown, West Virginia page was created in 2010, two years before I created the Wadestown, New Zealand page.

I would prefer to leave it the way it was, to show respect to the Wadestown, West Virginia people. Marshelec (talk) 07:35, 15 February 2021 (UTC)

Hi there. Sorry, Wadestown, West Virginia didn't come up in my search. I have converted Wadestown to a disambiguation page. Paewiki (talk)
Good outcome Cheers, Marshelec (talk) 21:57, 15 February 2021 (UTC)

Editing on some of the local authorities' specific templates

Why are you editing on some of the specific templates of the local authorities of New Zealand? Such as Hauraki District, Matamata-Piako District and South Waikato District. Is it because you don't appreciate how all and every populated places are organized by ward, etc? jlog3000 (talk) 11:07, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi jlog3000. I have re-added the ward divisions to all the templates. I have not put all the redlinks back in yet, as I can't find evidence they are all legally recognised or covered in reliable sources as per WP:NGEO. Some appear to be Census tracts. Do you have a source, showing they are legally recogised / notable? Paewiki (talk) 01:26, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
I mean I don't mind you revamping a bit on the templates, but also keep the full populated places (within their grouped wards). Plus, tonly sources I could provide so far are from one of these sites: http://www.linz.govt.nz and https://www.topomap.co.nz/ Any doubts or questions, feel free to ask. jlog3000 (talk) 01:45, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
Hi jlog3000. I have added the removed localities back in as hidden, so they can each be assessed on a case by case basis. Paewiki (talk) 07:57, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
Hi. Well, if you say so. As I haven't yet focused on the templates on the other local government districts of New Zealand, which are still in the works. jlog3000 (talk) 11:52, 1 March 2021 (UTC)

New Zealand localities and suburbs

Kia ora Paewiki, fantastic work on New Zealand localities and suburbs! Thanks so much for creating all these articles. I'm currently going through the list and tidying up the corresponding Wikidata entries. Many of the localities now have two entries in Wikidata and whilst it's not much effort to merge those, I wonder whether you know that you can create a link to Wikidata yourself once you've created an article? There should be an entry for every locality on Wikidata already, but there isn't necessarily one each suburb yet. When you've got an article published, head across to Wikidata, type in the name and see whether there's an entry already. If yes, easily add it by editing the field under the heading "Wikipedia". The code that goes into the first box is "en" (for English WP) and the second box takes the article title. Hit "publish" and that's all there is to it.

So far, I've merged dozens of Wikidata entries. Having separate items on Wikidata isn't the biggest problem on earth, but sometimes, there's a link to Commons there and that will only appear in the left sidebar if the correct entry has been linked to. Any questions, please ask. Keep up your good work. Schwede66 23:22, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

Kia ora. I have added my latest new article Okaiawa to Q25660885 -- hopefully that's right? Thanks for the advice and the positive feedback, really appreciated. Paewiki (talk) 08:35, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
That's spot on! And you may have seen that having done so now results in a link to the respective article on the Māori Wikipedia showing up in the left sidebar (bottom link). Schwede66 19:18, 24 February 2021 (UTC)

List of hospitals in NZ

Belated thanks for your work re-formatting and tidying up this page. It's a huge improvement on what was there. I'd like to add the Karitane hospitals. Do you think they should be added as a group or individually like the St Helens hospitals?Gertrude206 (talk) 02:14, 12 March 2021 (UTC)

Thanks Gertrude206! Great idea adding the Karitane hospitals. I think it would work best to add them separately (like St Helens and Southern Cross), with their respective coordinates, locations and details. Paewiki (talk) 05:51, 12 March 2021 (UTC)

NZ Conservation Parks

Hi Paewiki - good to see you creating lot of small articles on NZ protected areas... can I ask that you add a stub template to them, though? Preferably either {{NewZealand-geo-stub}} or one of its regional subtypes? Cheers - and keep up the good work :) Grutness...wha? 11:40, 19 September 2021 (UTC)

Sorry, I seem to have forgotten to do that, will try to make sure I do so in future. Thanks for the feedback :) 00:53, 26 September 2021 (UTC)

An article you recently created, Kaipupu Point Sounds Wildlife Sanctuary, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

POPULATION

Hello, how did you find the population for the town of Huia? What did oyu reference — Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.180.98.131 (talk) 08:59, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

Hi User:139.180.98.131. I did not add the population figure to Huia, New Zealand. It is an unreferenced and outdated figure someone added a long time ago. I've removed it. Paewiki (talk) 09:15, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
