You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.200.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 16:45, 10 February 2025.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

[[File:Papatoetoe electorate, 1993.png|thumb|200px|Papatoetoe electorate boundaries between 1993 and 1996.]]
'''Papatoetoe''' is a former New Zealand parliamentary [[New Zealand electorates|electorate]], and is part of greater [[Auckland]].

==Population centres==
The 1977 electoral redistribution, initiated by Robert Muldoon's [[Third National Government of New Zealand|National Government]], was the most overtly political since the Representation Commission had been established in 1886 through an amendment to the ''Representation Act''.((sfn|McRobie |1989 |pp=8–9, 51, 119)) As part of the [[1976 New Zealand census|1976 census]], a large number of people failed to fill out an electoral re-registration card, and census staff had not been given the authority to insist on the card being completed. This had little practical effect for people on the general roll, but it transferred [[Māori people|Māori]] to the general roll if the card was not handed in. Together with a northward shift of New Zealand's population, this resulted in five new electorates having to be created in the upper part of the [[North Island]].((sfn|McRobie|1989|p=119)) The electoral redistribution was very disruptive, and 22 electorates were abolished, while 27 electorates were newly created (including Papatoetoe) or re-established. These changes came into effect for the ((NZ election link|1978)).((sfn|McRobie|1989|pp=115–120)) Papatoetoe was created from parts of the ((NZ electorate link|Mangere)) and ((NZ electorate link|Manukau)) electorates in the 1977 redistribution.

The electorate is urban-suburban, based on the suburb of [[Papatoetoe]], and was in [[Manukau City]], South [[Auckland]]. At various times it also included parts of the suburbs of [[Otara]], [[Wiri]], and [[Māngere]]. To the north it bordered on the [[Tamaki River]], and between ((NZ election link year|1984)) and ((NZ election link year|1987)) it reached the eastern edge of [[Manukau Harbour]]. It also bordered on the electorates of ((NZ electorate link|Otahuhu)), ((NZ electorate link|Hunua)), ((NZ electorate link|Manurewa)), and ((NZ electorate link|Mangere)) from 1978 to 1984, and ((NZ electorate link|Panmure)), ((NZ electorate link|Otara)), Manurewa, and Māngere from 1984 to 1996. The Papatoetoe electorate was eventually absorbed into Māngere and the newly created ((NZ electorate link|Manukau East)) electorates for the 1996 election.

==History==
The electorate existed from ((NZ election link year|1978)) to the introduction of [[Mixed member proportional representation|mixed-member proportional]] (MMP) representation in ((NZ election link year|1996)) and was represented by two [[New Zealand Labour Party|Labour]] MPs. In the 1978 election, the Papatoetoe electorate was won by [[Eddie Isbey]], who had been MP for the ((NZ electorate link|Grey Lynn)) electorate since ((NZ election link|1969)).((sfn|Wilson|1985|p=207)) Isbey retired at the ((NZ election link|1987)) and was succeeded by [[Ross Robertson]]. When the Papatoetoe electorate was abolished in 1996, Robertson transferred to the Manukau East electorate, which he represented until 2014.<ref name="parliament bio">((cite web |title=Ross Robertson |url= http://www.parliament.nz/en-nz/mpp/mps/former/50PlibMpsFormerRossRobertson1/robertson-ross |publisher=[[New Zealand Parliament]] |access-date=29 May 2015 |date=22 September 2014))</ref>
