Hello and welcome! I tried to help you wikify the Oswald Birley page you started as much as I could. I'm not very familiar with the knight orders and stuff like that, so I suggest you look to pages on other people that were knighted and try to put the information about Birley in a similar way :) If you have any questions, drop a note on my talk page. - Missmarple 20:59, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Hello, Wellyboy, I've never talked to you, as far as I recall. But I decided to say a few friendly words to everyone in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikipedians_in_Wellington since joining that category recently. (Incidentally, if you tweak your page link to that category, by adding a pipe then your user name, you will appear in proper alpha order instead of under "U".)
Good to see some serious biography and university work. But is "Prof" really an approved Wikipedia prenomial??
My employer operated in or near Te Aro (College and Vivian Sts) when I started there in 1993. Now in the real coffee belt in Willeston Street.
Kind regards -

Thanks for creating articles on members of the Order of New Zealand. I am concerned that the articles are too similar to the biographies at ONZ Biographical Notes. It's fine to use such sites as a source of information, but in some cases you appear to have copied entire sentences. I'd appreciate it if you could revise the articles by rewriting such sentences in your own words.- gadfium 04:27, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

site bans,
topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The
arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to
review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on

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. Schwede 66 09:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
