Oh, hey, forgot to do one of these for a while. Here's another one for Heritage New Zealand's registry of historic sites; still got a long way to go to get through all of these! Upper Hutt is a small commuter town outside Wellington, but it has a suprising amount of cool historic architecture, including a number of fashionable houses by James Chapman-Taylor, one of New Zealand's most notable architects.

  • The table needs a caption.
    • It has one, no? - G
  • I don't think the sticky header is working.
    • I realized I don't really need the sticky header for this one, since it's a fairly short list. - G
  • No issues with the prose.
  • Wouldn't it be better to use a <br> between "List" and "number"? There seems to be an excessive gap in between.
    • Ooh good point. Fixed. - G
  • In the source, it reads "Historic area". Why capitalize the "a" in the text and in the table?
    • That's a good point, decapitalised. - G
  • In the caption of the first image, again: is it necessary to capitalize "Historic Place"?
    • Ditto. - G
  • There's no reference for Remutaka Incline Rail Trail.
    • Oops. Fixed. - G

That's all I saw. Nice and thorough work, Generalissima. Alavense (talk) 09:19, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

One more thing, Generalissima. "Upper Hutt City is a city" reads a bit redundant. I think "Upper Hutt is a city" would be better. Thanks for your edits. Alavense (talk) 06:29, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Alavense Ah, good point! fixed. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 09:54, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • " jail, private residence, and scouting center" - given that we are dealing with a Commonwealth country, I think the last word should be spelt "centre"
    • Oop, yep. - G
  • "although plaster and jarrah timber was also heavily used" => "although plaster and jarrah timber were also heavily used"
    • Fixed. - G
  • "the area became a mobilization camp" => "the area became a mobilisation camp"
    • Fixed. - G
  • "A veterinary center constructed " => "A veterinary centre constructed "
    • Fixed. - G
