A bit strong
Just looking at my watchlist (articles that have had troubles before) and saw your edit with the immoderate edit summary
 * "Some one can not be "part" Maori. They either are Maori or they aren't. Saying someone is "part" Maori is a racist term."

If I said about myself that I am "part Swedish", would I be being racist? If it was said about me, would me getting my hackles up and loudly claiming "Saying someone is 'part' Swedish is a racist term" be reasonable? No.

Now if what you are upset at is someone saying a person is "part foo" or "tainted with znekdom" as opposed to normal (aka 'European'), then I guess I can imagine the cause of your upset. Though you would then have to be comfortable with your interpretation of what was intended. Is mention of some characteristic a slander or just an interesting aspect?

Anyway, can you find a better reference than some random sports page that claims "Māori heritage"? And who knows, he might be something weird on the other 'side', like Icelandic? I can't tell those island peoples apart... Shenme (talk) 01:39, 10 December 2015 (UTC)
