Wānaka
Reverted good faith edit. The Te Aka Māori Dicitonary page I added gave the translation for Lincoln University, which is “Te Whare Wānaka o Aoraki”. The word “Wānaka” here is pronounced the same as the town -there are no homophones in Te Reo Māori- and also means the same thing (Wānaka is South Island Māori for Wānanga, meaning learning or place of learning). This is a perfectly good citation.Tags: Manual revertRevertedVisual editMobile editMobile web edit

2022 Wellington protest
is this better? because i was making a genuine point about confusing language. And, in case you don't agree, any showering against the side of a war memorial honouring our country;s heroes is inherent desecrationTag: Visual edit

2022 Wellington protest
This isn't a biased edit- it should be rephrased like this to emphasise that 156 people out of 520 announced they supported the protest, not literally 30% of the country. Stop making it deliberately vague. The sample size is too small for this to credible.Tags: Visual editMobile editMobile web edit

Frank Ocean
In 2015 he legally changed his name to Frank Ocean, so it's obviously correct to have "Frank Ocean" at the start of the article, where the person's real name is. His birth name is mentioned in the "early life" section and in the infobox.Tags: RevertedVisual edit

I can't find a source saying "3-4 million new zealanders have some english ancestry", but, seeing as initial immigration to New Zealand was overwhelmingly from Britain, and these trends continue in many respects to this day, it's definitely true. One source I cited says they are by far the biggest source of ancestry in this country. So several million is another way of phrasing that. Plus we need the flagTag: Reverted

New Zealand ethnicity is measured statistically not by ancestry, but by birth and citizenship. This is irritating as it is, but also it complicates Wikipedia pages, which often grossly underestimate the true number of New Zealanders with heritage from a given countryTag: Reverted
