I first began editing Wikipedia in 2011, but was mostly inactive between 2013 and 2019. I got back into it with renewed enthusiasm in 2020. After attending WikiCon Aotearoa/West Coast 2021 I have become involved in a diverse range of other topics. In 2022, I made a significant contribution to the project WP:GLAM/WestCoastWPAL/2022, creating 12 new articles on West Coast topics and expanding many others.

I am currently a member of the management committee of Wikimedia Aotearoa New Zealand, an Incorporated Society and Registered Charity in New Zealand.

This editor is a Veteran Editor III and is entitled to display this Silver Editor Star.

Planning

Update/expand

• Alpine Energy
• Electricity sector in New_Zealand - generally out of date
• HVDC Inter-Island - needs more inline citations and rescuing/archiving links
• National Grid (New Zealand)
• New Zealand Electricity Market
• Northpower
• Pureora Forest Park
• Reefton Power Station
• Treaty of Waitangi claims and settlements
• Vector Limited
• Water in New Zealand - High Importance but not well developed
• Water supply and sanitation in New Zealand - still many gaps to fill
• Wellington Electricity

Develop new articles:

• Coastal hazards in New Zealand
• List of Treaty of Waitangi Settlements
