Flags
Hi there. In case you haven't read my edit summaries at 2008 Super 14 season and 2009 Super 14 season, the Wikipedia policy on flagicons is that they should not be used purely because you think they look nicer than text. According to WP:ICONDECORATION, one person's decoration may be another person's distraction. Furthermore, using text allows us to link to the rugby union represented by each referee, and also negates any similarity between the Australian and New Zealand flags when shrunk to 22px. – PeeJay 00:36, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

Invitation to an in-person meetup in Mohua / Golden Bay
Thinking about your summer break? Think about joining other Wikipedians and Wikimedians in Golden Bay / Mohua! Details are on the meetup page. There's heaps of interesting stuff to work on e.g. the oldest extant waka or New Zealand's oldest ongoing legal case. Or you may spend your time taking photos and then upload them.

Golden Bay is hard to get to and the airline flying into Tākaka uses small planes, so we are holding some seats from and to Wellington and we are offering attendees a $200 travel subsidy to help with costs.

Be in touch with Schwede66 if this event interests you and you'd like to discuss logistics.  Schwede 66  09:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
