Another New Zealand historic place list. Carterton is a sleepy little farming town, and many of these historic sites are certainly part and parcel from that background. Nevertheless, I hope you find this close up look at rural New Zealand life interesting. Thank you very much as always for your reviews!

- "The town has emerged as a tourism center" => "The town has emerged as a tourism centre" (Commonwealth English)
- "The first publicly owned hydroelectric power facility in Wairarapa" - in the lead it was the Wairapa.....?
- "stenciled or written on the walls" => "stencilled or written on the walls"

Gotta say I haven't seen the word plinth before. I wiki-googled it and it seems to be synonymous with pedestal, which is a more common word if I'm not mistaken - maybe replace it with that instead, or else wikilink plinth?
Other than that, the prose looks great. I also took a look at the images, and found no issues:
- All images have adequate alt texts.
- All images contribute encyclopedic value to the list.
- All images are appropriately licensed for either public domain or Creative Commons.
- Where applicable (i.e. not the uploader's own work), the source URLs of all images verify where they came from.

- 'ties to the Ngāti Māhu hapū of the Ngāti Kahungunu.' should say tribe or iwi after Ngati Kahungunu.
- Added. - G
- urupa should have a lang tag.
- Added. - G
- The reference for Wakelin's flour mill is contemporary with the proposed demolition and does not support the fact the building was saved (but can be easily verified e.g. [2]) unless I missed something in the Heritage NZ report the report does not seem to have been written at a time when demolition was confirmed to not be going ahead 'The NZHPT was contacted, and negotiations with the owners to retain the building are underway.'
- There's a bit under the Physical Description section under the Detailed List Entry at the bottom, but you're right that source is good to use here.
- This one is personal preference but I think the Carter Home should say men's retirement home, as it was established as such and for most of it's lifetime was exclusive to men.
- Good idea. - G
- Sayer's Slab Whare should probably say remained and not resided, as he did not choose to live in the area because of his friendship but instead his friendship caused him to remain when his father left the area.
- Good fix. - G
- A description for the Mayfield Station would be nice although there does seem to be a dearth of digital sources. If you locate anything physical available in Auckland I might be able to take a look at it.
- I dug quite a bit for that, and just could not find anything, not even things I could ask a friend in NZ to get. Usually when something on HNZ is that loosely covered, its due to some sort of privacy concern. - G
- The Glendower Woolshed should say circa 19th century as the Heritage report states: 'it was most likely built in the nineteenth century'
- Good fix. - G
- A homestead originally built by John Milsome Jury in 1864. should say circa 1864 per the report. Should also say 1935 instead of 1934, presume that is just a typo.
- Fixed! -G
- Otherwise everything cited is supported by the references given. Traumnovelle (talk) 03:37, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Traumnovelle: thank you very much! Made the fixes. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 07:43, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Support one more minor thing: the heritage nz website you cite contains digitised reports which is what most information is obtained from. These are given a date and author which are good to include for attribution and letting the reader know how up to date the information is. I was going to add them myself but I came across partial names (J. Doe) and wasn't sure on citation styles which are important in a FA class article.

Support from Crisco (and image review)
- File:Postcard. Public Library and Reading Room, Carterton (1900s) (21449016408).jpg - Are there any more specific tags relevant to this item?
- Added. - G
- File:Old Carterton Bulk Store - panoramio.jpg has a check categories tag.
- Fixed. - G
- File:St. Mark’s Anglican Church, Carterton.jpg looks good.
- File:Carterton Public Library.jpg looks good
- A photo of a church with a tall spire in a grassy environment should probably be "photograph" to be more formal
- Fixed. - G
_(21449016408).jpg){kind=link}
- Pā and Hapū are not italicized, while urupā is. Has the last not been incorporated into NZ English?
- Neither pā or hapū are generally italicized in any of the sources I've seen - but to be honest, neither is urupā, although it is far rarer. I'm not totally sure what to do, but I defaulted to italicizing. - G
- A World War I memorial - Does New Zealand prefer World War I or the First World War (as it would be in BrE)? Same for World War II and Second World War
- Follows BrE generally - good catch, fixed. - G
- Shares the site with Mayfield Station Stables (#7163) and Mayfield Station Woolshed (#1291). - Not a full sentence, so no full stop
- Fixed. - G
- Shares the site with Mayfield Station Shed (#7164) and Mayfield Station Woolshed (#1291). - Not a full sentence, so no full stop
- Fixed. - G
- Shares the site with Mayfield Station Shed (#7164) and Mayfield Station Stables (#7163). - Not a full sentence, so no full stop
- Fixed. - G
- The stables of a sheep run established sometime before the 1860s. - Not a full sentence (established ... modifies sheep run) so no full stop.
- Fixed. - G
- A couple more sentence fragments precede full sentences. Not sure how you want to deal with those. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 02:23, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Essentially italics aren't used by the style guides in NZ for Maori words regardless of if they have any widespread use in English or not. [3] [4] [5]
- So really to italicise or not should fall back on MOS:ITALICS. Both terms are included in the OED: [6] [7] and pa can be written as pah so should be considered loan words. Traumnovelle (talk) 02:38, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey man im josh
This review is based on version of the article.
Source review: Passed
- Reliable enough for the information being cited
- Consistent date formatting
- Consistent and proper reference formatting
- Appropriate wikilinks where applicable
- Spot checks on 10 sources match what they are being cited for
Feedback:
- The abbreivation for the ref column should be Ref(s), with the full word as "References" given that some cells have more than 1 ref
- I'm a little confused because of the classification for the Waikēkeno Historic Area. My understanding was historic places were meant to be either Category 1 or Category 2, but this is a third designation which isn't explained in any capacity anywhere in the article
References are good though. Good stuff as always Generalissima. Hey man im josh (talk) 19:14, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Hey man im josh There we go - added an explanation for historic areas, good catch. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 19:18, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Here's #20 in this series for your consideration. Fans of Family Guy may be interested to see Chuck Mangione listed here (apparently - I have never seen said show so don't really know what the gag is but somebody mentioned it to me........). Feedback as ever will be most gratefully received and swiftly acted upon -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:08, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Images are correctly licensed and have provided alt-text (not a requirement but always nice to see. Prose is quality as usual, no complaints there; and the table is correctly formatted. Support. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 23:37, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Source review (pass)
The sources are reliable and high-quality, particularly for a list about music. The citation structure is consistent and well-done. I have done a spot check, and for the most part, everything from the source matches the citation and what is being cited in the list. I did run across one small issue. The Hollywood Foreign Press Association source (here) no longer supports the cited information as the website has not updated to only show the most recent win. It may change again in the future to show all of the wins and nominations, but it is likely best to just use the archived version (here) as it will stay more consistent. Otherwise, great work as always, and once the small point with the one citation is corrected, I will pass this source review. Best of luck with this FLC! Aoba47 (talk) 00:21, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Aoba47: - I went for a totally different source in the end -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:45, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- That makes sense as it is better to use a source specific to the song and its win. Thank you for addressing this point. If possible, I would appreciate any feedback for my current FAC, but I completely understand if you do not have the time or interest. Great work as always!

I also did a source review, just because I typically like to. The only change that I viewed as necessary was changing "Huffington Post" to "HuffPost" to match the target article. I also ran IABot but no additional archives were added. Great stuff as always Chris. Support Hey man im josh (talk) 19:00, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
