The Conservative Debate edit

If you live in my city you will know that The Christchurch Press is a conservative paper. Everyday there is a front page headline attacking the centre-left government while praising the opposition. This isn't my opinion but if I have to blog this including some of the headlines and then cite it I will. Bactoid 05:17, 20 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Looks like publishing this sort of article (without asking other scientists their opinion) is definitely very right wing! Don't know how to 'prove' it for wikipedia http://www.stuff.co.nz/the-press/news/2669207/Climate-change-down-to-nature 129.215.25.154 (talk) 12:47, 25 July 2009 (UTC) lionfishReply
The last paragraph of the building's official heritage register entry backs up that the Press is a conservative newspaper. Schwede66 19:31, 30 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Today section title edit

Should it specify some years instead of just saying "today"? Seems like it will date itself pretty easily if it isn't changed. VioletVines (talk) 07:28, 31 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Cellarius (name) edit

Cellarius (name) redirects to Cellarius (disambiguation), for the usage as pseudonym by Samuel Butler (novelist) in his letters to the editor is ambiguous. --Pawyilee (talk) 15:27, 13 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

I share your concern, and for that reason, I once unlinked the term. Somebody else put the link back. I shall remove it again. Schwede66 17:03, 13 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
I greatly fear you don't share my concern, which is that readers of the article get a chance to see the list of Cellariuses from which Butler chose his pseudonym, and that bots know the link is intended. Please put it back again so (q.v.) makes sense. --Pawyilee (talk) 07:12, 14 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
I completely misunderstood you. Sorry. Schwede66 08:40, 14 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for putting it back. I'm sorry my attempt to disambiguate turned out to be ambiguous! I believe Butler was honoring Christoph Cellarius, but with the link restored, readers are free to take their pick. --Pawyilee (talk) 13:07, 14 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Editors edit

E. B. (Binney) Lock was editor after A. R. Cant. Perhaps someone in Christchurch could look for him in the phone book and ask for the details.Redactor33 (talk) 02:35, 31 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
