K.e.coffman (talk) 21:53, 7 July 2021 (UTC)Evans Bay article - some thoughts
Hi, here are a few thoughts about the Evans Bay, New Zealand article that you discussed at our Wellington meetup this morning.
Overall, the existing article is not too long. The typical guideline for splitting based on length is around 4 times as long as the Evans Bay article at present.
However, there is a great diversity of topics covered in the existing Evans Bay article, and I think there is merit in splitting out separate articles based on content. This depends on the "notability" of these subtopics, and whether there are enough citations. My initial suggestions are to consider establishing new articles for at least these topics:
- Greta Point Patent slip
- Flying boats in Wellington
I leave you to consider the best titles if you go down this track. Hopefully, it would be possible to gather a set of images to illustrate each of the new topics, and put these images into a Gallery in the new articles.
For any subtopic you decide to create a new article, I recommend you leave a heading and a sentence or two about the subtopic in the main Evans Bay article, and add the "main" template see: Template:Main, to link to the new article on that sub-topic.
I am happy to chip in and help with these, if you get in touch, and I will put the Evans Bay article on my watch list Cheers, Marshelec (talk) 22:43, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
Thank you. I was thinking that the Patent Slip deserved its own page.Wainuiomartian (talk) 23:40, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
Marking edits as minor
According to WP:ME, minor edits "include typographical corrections, corrections of minor formatting errors, and reversion of obvious vandalism. A minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute." Your removing the systemic racism statement on David Seymour (New Zealand politician) was not per WP:ME. I recommend a considered approach to the minor edit tick box in future. Your edit was, however, helpful. It highlighted a point that required citation. It is for this reason I thanked you then and now. Te Karere (talk) 19:50, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
