Welcome and hope you can continue to contribute. There is a learning process, so patience is often required. You can see some examples of suggetions we made to, say Kawaikini. Wikipedia has what we call "templates" that you just insert within curly brackets for some common uses. The {{Hawaiian Dictionaries}} template gives direct access to the Hawaiian language databases provided by UH. {{GNIS}} gives access to the USGS database of official place names, and {{Coord}} gives a way to get non-commercial maps. These provide a bit of protection from the "Link rot" effect, as does the {{Cite web}} and related mechanisms. Also, to rename an article, the "move" function is available via a menu off the little down arrow near the top of the page, between History and Search. This leaves behind a redirect from the old name. The Wikipedia:Manual of Style (Hawaii-related articles) might also be useful as a guideline, to say, use diacritics when appropriate (Hawaiian language does not use appostrophe but ʻokina). Feel free to ask questions. W Nowicki (talk) 18:45, 3 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
