Default The BE NZ WIKI is looking somewhat bare.

The Really Useful thread will soon become un-stickied.

So perhaps the time has come and some of us should start adding pages of useful information to the BE WIKI as that is now the place for................. really useful information.

The pages seem to be able to be edited and there is a place where we can post suggestions or discuss the Wiki page thats been created.

I'm a fine one to talk though as I've been a right lazy tart and not put in anything about NZ plumbing yet .

Once the page is up and running it's possible to stick a link to the page at the top of our NZ forum. Then newbies can dip in and out of the info. on the Wiki and then come back to us here on the forum for our personalised fountains of wisdom or just to get a drink or three in the bar.

Wha'd'ya say? Any chance of a Wiki Fest?

You would perhaps put on helpful information about Tauranga.

Schools.
Areas.
Description of the place.

stuff like that.

Also hints and tips about stuff in NZ.

Stuff about shipping cats and dogs.
Cost of Living
How to set up a bank account
NZQA



just helpful stuff.

I should do something on plumbing here as I said and perhaps Nelson.

If I get some more quiet time in the office I certainly will - do I get a complimentary bottle of Bolly for being helpful bunny?

I will give you a bottle of water and suggest that people talk to you (Am Loolah) about house purchase in Mount Maunganui and Papamoa, as you are local house purchase mentor!

All you have to do is go to the page you want to post on, click the "edit" tab, add the info and scroll down to the bottom of the page and hit "save"
Hey, if technophobe me can do it, I'm pretty sure you can too!
