Tūmanako

Nō te mea kua tohua tēnei o ngā tuhipānui hei maramara, kua huri ōku whakaaro ki te kōrero mō Rātā me tana rākau. Ko te tūmanako kia waiho te maramara nei mā ngā tāngata matatau ki te reo Māori, ki tērā o ngā taonga o Aotearoa nei, e whakapai i runga i ngā tikanga whakapai, kia tupu ake hei rākau whakaruruhau mō te Tūī, mō te Kākā. Tēnā, whakaputaina ō whakaaro ki Wikipedia:Kōrero. Nō reira, tēnā tātou katoa Kahuroa 21:51, 13 Poutū-te-rangi 2007 (UTC)

Hawai'i rānei Hawaii

I believe its called Hawaii in Māori and not Hawai'i as Māori doesnt have the okina. So should we move this page to Hawaii? Thomas Norren (talk) 01:56, 30 Hepetema 2022 (UTC)

Do you have a source for the name in Māori? There doesn't seem to be an entry in maoridictionary.co.nz. If there is no source, then what we name the article is a judgement call, and since the English Wikipedia uses an okina even though the English language doesn't have one, I see no harm in leaving it at the current title.-gadfium (talk) 05:26, 30 Hepetema 2022 (UTC)

Ok, I suppose we can leave it like that until a there is more written in Māori about Hawaii Thomas Norren (talk) 07:51, 30 Hepetema 2022 (UTC)
