My source was included: The Evening Post 12 April 1881, National Archives of New Zealand. Why is this not an acceptable source? 2407:7000:A105:4999:C994:6EA8:3FFF:6739 (talk) 08:15, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Your post said "in October 2020 researchers at the National Archives in New Zealand noted...", and it seems unlikely that a newspaper article from 1881 would verify that. Had you worded your post differently, I would expect you to include the newspaper page number and article title, so the reference could be verified.- gadfium 08:28, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
