 * A warm welcome from me as well. I thought the above template had a link to referencing, but it doesn't. Please see this page: Help:Referencing for beginners. Enjoy. Ask questions anytime; here's good (I've put your page onto my watchlist).  Schwede 66  02:32, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Kia ora Schwede66, thanks for your help and your patience with me. I really appreciate the link to referencing for beginners as well as I have found that tricky :) thanks so much!

Kia ora
Kia ora, I responded to your suggestion on the talk page of Kate Sheppard House just now. Feel free to edit the page if you see something missing e.g. information about the name. I also noticed on your user page that you are asking "what is CSS" and that you are having problems with visual editor. Have you asked at the Tea House about these issues? I don't know how to resolve them but I'm sure someone will be able to! All the best, MurielMary (talk) 11:48, 26 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Well, they are cascading style sheets but how that’s related to your browser crashing is beyond me. The Tea House is the place to ask.  Schwede 66  18:53, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Kia ora @MurielMary, thank you for the response! I hadn't thought to ask at the Tea House (I have a bad habit of forgetting to ask questions when I need help). Thank you also @Schwede66. I will definitely try out the Tea House and refrain from editing references as well until I figure out what is going on :) It's very lovely to make connections with you both here on Wikipedia, the community aspect makes it very enjoyable to be here.

 * Sounds good! Are you based in Aotearoa New Zealand? We have regular meet-ups online and in person in some locations. You'd be welcome to join if that would be useful for you? There are some very knowledgeable people around who are very willing to help others out! MurielMary (talk) 04:02, 27 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I am! How do I find out more about these meet-ups? Caligulady (talk) 23:17, 27 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Well, we have one online this Sunday: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Aotearoa_New_Zealand_Online/23 There are regular get togethers in Wellington, less regular in Auckland and Christchurch and then there are individual editors in places like Hokitika, Dunedin, Golden Bay and Picton. Also do you use Facebook? We have a facebook group where editors ask and answer editing questions. It's Wikipedia New Zealand (the cover photo at the moment is an autumn scene by a lake). You need to ask for access and I'm one of the administrators so I'll let you in! MurielMary (talk) 23:45, 27 April 2022 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!
