Image:New Zealand War Memorial.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Most of this article is copied wholesale off the war memorial website 203.211.68.246 ( talk) 08:29, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
Don't know why the article is in the category Category:Art and cultural repatriation (?) Hugo999 ( talk) 23:35, 24 June 2017 (UTC)
The article currently lacks any significant coverage of the on-going issues about the earthquake strength of the carillon tower and the long periods that the building has been closed to the public. This topic was in the news today: [2]. There are many news items on this topic over the past few years. Is anyone interested in creating a new section or sub-section ? I can put this on my to-do list but it will be a while before I can get to it. Marshelec ( talk) 05:55, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
Looking at the Ministry for Culture and Heritage website: [3], they show the National War Memorial and the Pukeahu Park as separate entities (they were developed at different times, and have different histories). This existing article is not overly long at present, so possibly this suggestion is premature, but there could be merit in having two separate articles: one for the National War Memorial, and one for Pukeahu Park, with appropriate inter-linkages. The benefit would be a clear focus for each article, and they would be shorter and easier to read. Marshelec ( talk) 08:11, 4 February 2023 (UTC)
I would like to put the History section before the sections on the carillon and Hall of Memories, and possibly change its name to something like 'Background' or 'Planning', then reorganise the text as some of it would flow better if it was under the specific sections for carillon and Hall of Memories.
