256:. As you started this draft, do you want to submit it for review, or do you think I should do so, or shall I simply move it to article space? I was thinking when I started work on it that I might create similar lists for other regions of New Zealand, but I've had my fill of the subject for now so I don't intend to pursue that idea in the immediate future.- 772:
explained they don't have a suitable source on the talk page. The IP then removed their own talk page message. There's nothing problematic here if you accept this is one person using two different devices, or one device somehow connecting to the network in different ways, and they're obviously not trying to pretend they're different people.-

Hi, now that school holidays are over(!) I'm wondering if I should set up a project page, even if it's just a dairy of what I'm up to. Would that be appropriate? If so, where would be a good place - a sub page of the NZ notice board, or of my user page? I suppose I could make a start and then move it

Wonderful! For the article, I'd suggest formatting the images slightly differently - splitting them up into 1 main image per section, with galleries for some sections such as the fauna/flora. At the moment on my screen they tend to run-on, which means some of the images aren't placed in the sections

Hi, I have found what appear to be legal land boundaries for Bushy Park on the Horizons Regional Council GIS system. I have taken a screen shot and roughly marked up in red, my understanding of the outer perimeter of the Bushy Park property, including the homestead and its gardens. Here is a link to

Te Papa is hosting an edit-a-thon on Saturday 13 July 2024 between 10am and 4pm. Lunch will be provided. The theme of the edit-a-thon is Te Papa Expeditions and editors will be working on updating wikipedia articles and wikidata on expeditions, people, places, ships, and species. Come along to learn

was heavily involved in the restoration of these carousels - particularly the restoration of the carousel horses. The article about her could do with some improvement, so I may give this a go. I found an email address for her and sent a message inviting feedback about the two carousel articles, but

You have put a huge amount of work into this list - wow :). I am travelling at present and time is a bit limited. I will have a good look over the list article and get back to you with feedback (if any) within a few days, and then I suggest you move the article into mainspace. Once that is done, I

The IP uses both 2407:... and 49:... ranges (judging on similarity of edits, and they're both Vodafone mobile). They added that the mayor is right wing with one, and added a minor controversy with sources with the other. I removed the assertion he is right wing because it was unsourced, and the IP

It seems wrong that an IP editor has completely reverted a talk page comment. Even if you don't agree with something posted on a talk page, unless it is your own post, or is slanderous or otherwise illegal, then surely it should not be reverted ?? I wasn't quite sure what action to take ? Can you

I think it might be possible if you create a way in OSM for the border around the town, split the Kaikoura District boundary way at those two points, then create a relation that's the new boundary and the remaining parts of the district, both labelled as "inner" for the relation. I've never tried
466:
I've also noticed some repetition in content in the wetland/education/visitor centre sections - I wonder if some of these could be combined, or if some of the sections would flow better with a different format (the homestead section feels like it should be above the visitor centre section, since

was absolutely great - a fantastic restoration job, and a wonderful symbol of the revitalisation of the Geelong Waterfront that was undertaken from around 1996 to 2000. We were big kids and took a ride. Have a look at the video.:) I hope to get feedback on this article and new sources from the

I see that there is a territorial boundary (Administrative Boundary in OSM) for Kaikōura District in Open Street map. Is there a way of producing a copy of this boundary that can be used for the map of the sanctuary, and can be edited to show the "take-out" for the town (and is that the most

again I have not had a response. If you are interested, have a look at the two articles - I would love to expand these with more details of the restoration work, but I have not yet found suitable sources. (Hence my queries to the City of Geelong, and to Patricia Mullins.)_

I have previously looked into Open Street Map (and I have a user account). What steps would I have to go through to create a decent outline of the perimeter of Bushy Park in OSM, ie what approach is most practical for drawing/ tracing the boundaries

Just letting you know that User:Ganesha811 has begun the review on the Foveaux Strait article. They noticed a couple of editors have been collaborating closely on the article. Feel free to respond to comments they provide. Thanks.

Thanks for such a massive amount of work on this.:) Is there a need for any expansion of the lead ?? Apart from that point, I suggest you move the article into mainspace. I am happy to link to it from the

Perhaps you can have a look at what might be needed, and if you think it should be possible for me to do this, please give me some pointers. This newspaper article shows a map of the sanctuary.
567:, I found that there is an even older fully-restored and heritage-listed carousel at Melbourne Zoo (must see this on my next visit). I have created and published a second article: 444:
Yay, thanks for the help. I found another article with a template for including the OSM link into the map, and copied that, and bingo. I have an outline. Thanks so much :) See:

Hi, I thought you might be interested in a couple of articles I have created about carousels in Melbourne and Geelong, after a recent visit.
645: 651:
It would be great to add a map to the article, but I am still not sufficiently experienced in Open Street Map to do this without help.
426:
Aha - it's the infobox type which wasn't displaying the OSM polygon. How does that look? (we can also change the colour of the border).

It's beyond my experience (so I might recommend starting with something else), but I'm sure there are people out there who could help!
