Lists of Statutes of New Zealand → Lists of statutes of New Zealand – Statutes in this context isn't a proper noun and should thus not be capitalised. Yes, I acknowledge that when lawyers write about acts, statutes, bills, ordinances, or the like, they will almost always capitalise that word. The New Zealand law style guide, however, says that we aren't dealing with proper nouns. If I had heaps of spare time, I would include all the list articles on this page in a multi-move proposal, but whatever consensus we come to here shall simply apply to the sub-articles, too (as per the KIS principle).

 * Support – "statutes" is not a proper noun. The same should go for the chronological "subpages". (That said, those subpages are a mess of improper formatting; I'm also not sure if they meet the notability guideline for stand-alone lists. Also: Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information.) V2Blast (talk) 06:45, 30 June 2017 (UTC)


 * This is done, how do we stop the bot? – Nixinova ⟨T|C⟩ 21:40, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Do you mean "start the bot"? To deal with the sub-pages? If so, I've done it manually.  Schwede 66  09:33, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
