quality article on good sources, with an excellent table of historic sites. Minor question, for article and properly sourced hook: the source says "Puari, ... a the Waitaha settlement",.not "the Waitaha settlement". I suggest to mention "Puari" in the article and use in the hook "Puari" with only one of the two blue links which lead away from the article, something like "Puari, a Waitaha settlement".
