Admin move requested[edit]

The standary Wikipedia naming convention would seem to support a ", New Zealand" or a ", Christchurch" qualifier, not the "(New Zealand)" qualifier. Can an admin please change that - as these redirects already exist, I can't do it myself. Ingolfson (talk) 00:41, 9 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Closure[edit]

Hi, I live in NZ and I'm pretty sure the museum has since closed after its reopening on 2nd Sep 2011. Could someone please double-check the fact and add the info on the page? Thanks in advance! --Bakerychaz (talk) 06:40, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
