A fact from New Zealand School Journal appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 20 May 2022 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that the New Zealand government has officially apologised for articles published in the New Zealand School Journal about the Moriori people in the early 20th century?

... that the New Zealand School Journal has featured artwork from leading New Zealand artists like Colin McCahon(artwork pictured)? Source: [1] for the image; page 119 of offline source A Nest of Singing Birds (O'Brien, 2007) cited in the article discusses the contributions of McCahon and his wife Anne in detail
ALT1: ... that the New Zealand School Journal, an educational publication for children, was described by Margaret Mahy as "one of New Zealand's leading literary magazines"? Source: [2] and [3]
ALT2: ... that the New Zealand government has officially apologised for articles published in the New Zealand School Journal about the Moriori people in the early 20th century? Source: "The Crown contributed to the dissemination of this myth through the publication of The School Journal. ... The Deed of Settlement also includes a Crown apology to Moriori for its acts and omissions ... These include... the Crown’s contribution to the stigmatisation of Moriori as a racially inferior people who became extinct." [4]
Overall: I assume good faith on the references that I have no access to. I prefer ALT2, but the promoter can choose the hook. SL93 (talk) 23:15, 2 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
