thread_title: airport or airstrip

message: This vandalism is very strange, especially all the effort that this person has gone through obviously. its quite funny as we have a large international airport according to wikipedia, 5.7 million people and several universitys/schools. also a large CBD? im sorry but where do I find all these sky scrapers that line the Waikouaiti River, Where do I find the 5 Runway International Airport with several terminals and many aircraft companies?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.239.67.92 (talk) 13:36, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

message: I feel that there needs to be much more about Cherry Farm hospital as during my time in the area in the late 1970's early 80's its influence on the town was quite profound.--62.31.135.43 00:40, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

message: on ya Simon for killing that quick. what is it with the nutter that repeats the myth? the place is nice without an airport, an airport would spoil the remote beauty of the place, take away its special qualities. There are only a handful of int airports in nz and not many in th esth island for sure.moza 12:46, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: and again, at least i get a laugh out of looking at the wierdness of it all, so funny.. we need more of that as well, but perhaps humour that can stay would be a good path for this contributor to take, but I am not gonna hold my breath.moza 04:13, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

text: it is a strange form of vandalism. I wasn't logging into wikipedia for a few days so I missed the latest change for a bit. It might be a good excuse to followup on something that was discussed at the meetup. - SimonLyall 05:03, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

dated 1966, how are we looking on copyright infringment?Nankai 00:10, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You're right. The copyvio was introduced on 31 January 2006, so I've rolled back the article to that date. I'll selectively restore untainted sections.-gadfium 03:55, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

message: I've never seen it. If it exists I suppose it deserves a mention. I just moved it down the page, I think it can be truthfully said to be of tertiary importance, after the road and railway. Nankai 07:07, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've removed it. Civil aviation doesn't list it. It's just a bit of grass. The only reason it is mentioned at all is due to regular vandal. I'm sure every other town in NZ has a airstrip nearby but not worth mentioning it. - SimonLyall 11:25, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  That bloody airport 

message: Should the red link Mainland Poultry be changed to Zeagold Foods? I made the original red link,. is there a time limit for if no-one writes a redlinked article that you unwikify the words?Nankai 07:09, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I see no other article links to either Mainland Poultry or Zeagold Foods, and it's a small business by international standards, so I think unlinking it would be sensible.-gadfium 07:59, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: The article is semi-protected due to a pest who occasionally changes it to look like a major city (with a population greater than that of New Zealand). The pest is unlikely to edit within any given two month period, so this does not appear to me to be a reasonable candidate for the trial of pending changes. More appropriate candidates for the PC trial which are of interest to New Zealand editors would be John Key or New Zealand.-gadfium 06:27, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
