A WikiProject you may be interested in...

ICT dab links
[edit]Hm that's strange, looks like a bug in CorHomo, the program I was using to fix links to disambiguation pages. Thanks for letting me know. —Dylan Lake 16:27, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

Category:Porirua vs Category:Wellington Region
[edit]Hi Leigh. Since Category:Porirua is already in Category:Wellington Region there should be no need to categorise pages like Porirua and Whitby as Category:Wellington Region, should there? That's the normal approach from elsewhere... The fact that the Hutt Vallye doesn't have a sub-classification more reflects the fact that nobody in particular seems to be looking after that area. I'm not even that convinced about the existence of Category:Wellington Region vs. Category:Wellington, really, but if someone can apply consistent separation to those it would probably be a good thing :-) Karora 09:11, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
- Hi Karora, I'm happy either way - I noticed when I went to Category:Wellington Region that Porirua and Whitby weren't there, but I had missed Category:Porirua at the top of the page.I think, as you say, it probably needs to be more consistent - anyway, I've removed the duplication. :-) Cheers, --Leigh (talk) 09:56, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
Rollback
[edit]Hello Leigh, I have granted rollback rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe I can trust you to use rollback correctly by using it for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Good luck and thanks.

- Hi Acalamari, thanks for granting me rollback - I'll try and use it wisely! ;-) Cheers, Leigh (talk) 22:01, 18 June 2008 (UTC).
- You're welcome. :) Have fun. Acalamari 22:04, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Hello! I am working on the russian version "Burnside High School" article, which currently has short history section in wikipedia. I am writing you to ask - is there a possibility for you to visit a National Library at Welligton and obtain an electronic copy of book "Choosing the right path : Burnside High School 1960-2010 / Paul O'Connor" (http://natlib.govt.nz/records/21643829), and put some information into the article? Also I can buy a hard copy of that book. Could you give me an advice, if it's possible? I'll be happy to get any version and any part of that book. Thank you for your time, --Voyagerim (talk) 13:27, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

Edit-a-thon in Wellington, May 29
[edit]Hi there. I'm organising an edit-a-thon at Te Papa on Sunday May 29th, focussed on adding NZ flora and fauna species to Wikipedia. It would be good to have some more experienced editors along to help any complete beginners, and I wonder if you might be interested in attending. If so, feel free to add yourself to the Wikipedia:Meetup/Wellington/2016_Edit-a-thon. It would be great to have a good turnout and show Te Papa there's an active local editing community.

[edit]Invitation to an in-person meetup in Mohua / Golden Bay
[edit]Thinking about your summer break? Think about joining other Wikipedians and Wikimedians in Golden Bay / Mohua! Details are on the meetup page. There's heaps of interesting stuff to work on e.g. the oldest extant waka or New Zealand's oldest ongoing legal case. Or you may spend your time taking photos and then upload them.
Golden Bay is hard to get to and the airline flying into Tākaka uses small planes, so we are holding some seats from and to Wellington and we are offering attendees a $200 travel subsidy to help with costs.
Be in touch with Schwede66 if this event interests you and you'd like to discuss logistics. Schwede66 09:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
