Article title

edit

This page has been redirected to "Parliamentary Debates (Hansard)" from "Parliamentary Debates (Hansard - New Zealand". However this could cause confusion because most parliaments that are modeled on the Westminster system have a record of parliamentary debates which are referred to as Hansard. Therefore I think it would be more informative to retain the words New Zealand in the page title (i.e. either remove the page redirect or redirect to a page called "New Zealand Parliamentary Debates (Hansard)". — Preceding unsigned comment added by NZHistoryResearch (talkcontribs) 08:43, 26 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

@NZHistoryResearch: You make a very good point. However, I chose the page title as it reflects the official name of the publication, and so distinguishes it from the other Hansard. What I will do is redirect Hansard (New Zealand) to this page, and add a hat note explaining the significance of the difference in name. (One more thing: when you leave notes on talk pages, sign them by adding four tildes ~~~~ to the end of your post.) Of course, if you or anyone else have any better ideas I'm keen to hear them.

Thanks for moving the article. To me, it now seems to be correctly named. Schwede66 18:49, 26 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

Does the volume section feel a bit... off to anyone? It feels like a WikiHow on how to access Hansard, and less an article on Hansard? Nauseous Man (talk) 09:16, 22 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
