User:Konstable/Māori terms

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Note: This is not a bot. It is operated manually. I may have a bot running on some similar articles, User:KonstableBot, but what is described on this page is not the bot. If the edit is made by my User:Konstable account it's definitely not a bot.

I intend to go through some articles with AWB correcting some Te Reo Māori terms into their proper spelling; also while doing that I will apply general AWB fixes. For most instances capitalisation will be unchanged, but for things like place names the first letter will be converted to upper case. To those concerned about AWB, it will not be run automatically - I will oversee all the edits and will make sure things like links, reference titles and external link addresses are left alone.

Here is a short list that I am using right now. This list is for imformative purposes to those interested in what I'm doing, if you would like me to add something to it or if you think I got something wrong please point that out on the talk page:
