16px quality article on good sources, with an excellent table of historic sites. Minor question, for article and properly sourced hook: the source says "Puari, ... a the Waitaha settlement",.not "the Waitaha settlement". I suggest to mention "Puari" in the article and use in the hook "Puari" with only one of the two blue links which lead away from the article, something like "Puari, a Waitaha settlement". The image is free and licensed, but not attractive that size. How about the top one? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:23, 23 August 2013 (UTC)

• I have changed the img and made the Puari clarification in the article. Also, here is
