Macrons
Most place names in New Zealand are spelled without macrons. See Naming conventions (New Zealand) for the guideline.- gadfium 22:00, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

Kia ora, gadfium.

Please let me know if my replying to you in this way works. I don't know how else to attempt to do so.

In a couple of your revisions of my editing, you said that macrons are not used in place names. Taupō District Council do use the macron in their name, and Taupō is what is shown on road signs. BridgeBuilderKiwi (talk) 00:32, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
 * It seems I am mistaken - the District Council does use the macro. However, the New Zealand Geographic Board does not include it in their Gazetteer (downloadable from LINZ), or in their separate list of all place names including macrons.


 * I will ask other New Zealand Wikipedians for their opinions. See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject New Zealand.


 * You can reply to me here, and I'll see it because I have this page on my watchlist.- gadfium 04:14, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
