Minor edits
editHi again - I notice you've marked some of your additions to History of Otago as "minor edit" - that's really only used for very small things like fixing spelling or punctuation, or adding a catgory link. Adding whole paragraphs aren't considered minor, so you shouldn't be ticking that box! BTW, good work on the article - it's huge already and hasn't even reached 1848!

Invitation to an in-person meetup in Mohua / Golden Bay
editThinking 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)
