Hi, just saw what you have done to this page. The full and official name of this bridge is Wuhan Baishazhou Yangtze River Bridge, not just Baishazhou Bridge. See [1] in Chinese. Baishazhou (zh:白沙洲) is a common name in China, referring to any island with white sand. If you have contradicting source, please provide them here. Otherwise please undo what you have done. Same thing goes with Wuhan Junshan Yangtze River Bridge and any other bridges you have renamed to a shorter one. See [2]. --Howchou (talk) 04:50, 14 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Robert McClenon was:

Thank you for your submission, but the subject of this article already exists in Wikipedia. You can find it and improve it at Spalte Glacier instead.

 The comment the reviewer left was:

This draft is either essentially the same as the article with the same name, or a subset of the article with the same name. The draft will be replaced by a redirect from draft space to the article.

Two copies of this page have been created, in draft space and in article space. It is not necessary to create two copies of the same page, and it annoys the reviewers. This is sometimes done in order to bypass Articles for Creation review. However, if a submitter is ready to have the article in article space, it can be

proposed for deletion

.

If the article is kept, this draft should be redirected to the article. If the article is deleted, this draft may be kept for future improvement.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to
  Draft:Spalte Glacier
  and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
• If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to
  Draft:Spalte Glacier, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7
  }}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
• If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
• If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

I'm writing here in the hope that we can see eye to eye, and so that if I do move some (not necessarily all) of these pages back, it won't seem like a personal attack or an affront to your efforts to improve Wikipedia. I suspect you have your own motives for moving all these pages, and I already said so on the Clutha talk page, but my reversions are certainly no move to stifle the Māori language, or silence NZ's multi-cultural nature. — HTGS (talk) 23:55, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You may be able to find some references at Papers Past. See this newspaper search although the first few entries appear to relate to the Māori-language word rather than the locality. The top of the search page also offers searches of magazines and parliamentary papers which might also be relevant.

Thanks for yoiur fixes at Tutaekuri River and Waiohiki. I mistakenly added macrons to Tutaekuri River on the Waiohiki page because I saw that the article for the river had macrons in the name. And I assumed that either the name wasn't updated, or someone removed the macrons, because apparently some people on Wikipedia don't like to use them in articles for NZ places. But thanks again for your fixes. Michael60634 (talk) 00:03, 22 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, I'd done the same earlier this week. The page was under the incorrect name with the macrons. ShakyIsles (talk) 00:23, 22 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Kia ora ShakyIsles, thanks again for doing the maps for the marine reserve page and sorry that it took so long for me to suss the rest of it out! In the process, I've just noticed that some of the maps for a few of the reserves include the land of islands they're surrounding, rather than just the water and stopping at the shore. How difficult do you think it'd be to exclude the land from the maps, given that presumably the paths all exist already? I'm happy to try and give it a shot myself if you reckon it'd be straightforward enough, or if you have time and were willing to do it that'd be awesome too!

Postcard from the West Coast Wednesday 8 Nov, 2023

A bit of a gap since the last postcard, but what a great time we've had with the Wikipedian at Large project in the interim • The highlight has been having Marshall and Lyn join me on the West Coast for a few days, visiting Fox Glacier and Whataroa • We now have good photo collections for the newly-created Waitangiroto Nature Reserve, and a a much improved article with galler • The Whataroa article has been improved with local history and links to the White Herons • We also have much better coverage of Fox Glacier, including new Ngāi Tahu viewing place Te Kopikopiko o te Waka, and photos of Te Weheka Walkway/Cycleway and the South Side Walkway/Cycleway • Could I get you all to check back through your contributions and add anything extra you've done to the [Progress page as we wrap up • Also—I'm hosting a catch-up meeting on Sunday November 12, 2:30 pm, online at my Whereby chat room. This is a chance to go over anything you'd still like to see improved, talk about how the project went and possibilities for future ones, and announce winners of prizes for most or best contributions. Drop me a line at mikerove.wiki if you can make it (or can't but have ideas about the project) • Thank you all for your contributions, however small, and chat soon. — Giantflightlessbirds

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)[reply]
