Edit war

If editors are in disagreement about Maoris versus Maori versus Māori, how about following the established Wikipedia procedures of seeking consensus via a talk page discussion? For now, I have restored the version that existed before the edit warring started. Schwede 66 00:42, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks @Schwede66. Note that Māori with macron is standard on Wikipedia when referring to Māori people: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%C4%81ori

Further, despite the argument that having a macron is not English, it is the spelling used by the Oxford English Dictionary: https://www.oed.com/dictionary/maori_n?tl=true

From the examples there, it can be seen that using a macron has been standard for the last 20 years, and (like sheep) it is no longer pluralised with an 's'. Thedugganaut (talk) 11:49, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
