good work on getting this page online heres a great resource of info for this topic http://www.teara.govt.nz/NewZealanders/NewZealandPeoples/Dalmatians/1/en --Chaos2501 (talk) 00:42, 15 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

I find it surprising that there's nothing on here about Croatian Kauri Gum Digging, which to some extent is an extremely important part of early Croatian New Zealanders. AbeSeverinsen (talk) 03:03, 26 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

It can't be referred to as 'Croatian' per se (see Te Ara). Care must be taken not to conflate Dalmatians in the broad territorial and cultural sense that the term was used with what the ethnicity explicitly referred to as 'Croatian' is in the contemporary understanding of nation-states. At best, there could only be a cursory allusion made in the history section. Iryna Harpy (talk) 06:16, 27 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
