Te Whare Waiutuutu/Kate Sheppard House

Kia ora koutou,

I am thinking it would be good to add a section to the article on the name of Kate Sheppard House. It is now also known as Te Whare Waiutuutu^[1], probably due to the fact the house is situated next to Waiutuutu stream. It was also known as Waimairi (presumably named after the area which was also known as Waimairi) during the residence of John Joseph Dougall^[2].

Kia ora, yes I agree that the article should include the expanded name of the building. The first line states the full name. If you'd like to add a section explaining the name or how it received it etc go ahead! MurielMary (talk) 11:45, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
