Welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you will enjoy working on the site. -- Anon.
I ran across your little contribution to Mana. Although the article has since been much improved, that addition of yours was the most important, I think—so I moved it to the front and expanded on it a bit. - Marshman 17:39, 6 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- Thanks. :-) It's a word that is used in day-to-day speech in New Zealand (in the polynesian sense of respect) and, hence, to me is shorn of all 'magic' and 'life-force' connitations. The mana of various Maori figures has occasionally caused interesting situations in the politics of this country. Tenbaset 05:00, Jun 13, 2004 (UTC)
Specifically New Zealand subjects[edit]
Greetings, Shannon. I see you've had a busy week at WP.
The reason I haven't talked to you before is that I wasn't aware of your presence. One reason is you weren't on the list of NZ Wikipedians; the other is that since I joined you've been doing things "outside" NZ (except maybe "Cessna"!!).
Now I've discovered your major contributions to "Iwi". I hope we can persuade some Maori speakers to translate it for my stub on the Maori WP.
I hope you continue to enjoy contributing.
Best wishes from the Capital. Robin Patterson 00:40, 18 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Hi, You might want to consider adding {{User NZ res}} to the top of your user page, which will add you to this category automatically and also add a nice graphic. Onco_p53 08:42, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
