I created my Wikipedia account in November 2019. I got introduced through an edit-a-thon in Aotearoa / New Zealand at the Dowse Art Museum.
In general my areas of interest are the Treaty of Waitangi and past events in Aotearoa, art, theatre and performing arts especially from Aotearoa and increasing the quality and presence of women, LGBTIQ+ and POC on Wikipedia.
I have a conflict of interest with some performing arts subjects as I have worked in a freelance manner in performing arts over a number of years. I am managing this conflict of interest by declaring it on this page or in relevant articles. Since December 2021 I have been working for Te Rākau Hua o Te Wao Tapu (Te Rākau), Jim Moriarty and Helen Pearse-Otene. I get support of other editors from time to time depending on the nature of the conflict. Creative New Zealand payed me to teach Wikipedia to new editors from December 2021 to April 2022.
I am Pākehā and my heritage is English and Scottish. I was born in Aotearoa and grew up in Te Whanganui-a-Tara (Wellington).
My user name 'pakoire' is a Māori language word that means to imitate bird sounds. My pronouns are she / her / ia.
I attended Wikimania in Singapore in 2023 and enjoyed being overwhelmed by a massive conference all things 'Wiki'.

Pacific Arts Creative New Zealand Wikipedian in Residence
Sophia Coghini and Lisa Maule presenting at WOW 2022
Building from the Performing Arts Aotearoa Wikiproject Creative New Zealand contracted a Wikipedian in Residence project to increase content about Pacific Arts. At the core this outreach project I trained and guided three Pacific Island heritage people to run their own projects increasing content about Pacific Arts on Wikipedia, Wikidata and Wikimedia Commons. The WOW2022 conference in Sydney has accepted a paper about this project by Sophia Coghini and I.
An informal project expanding content about Matike Mai: Independent Working Group on Constitutional Transformation and related areas of Māori self-determination and relationship to the New Zealand Government.
This was a showcase that wove multiple disciplines of Pacific arts created and performed by proud descendants of Te Moana Nui-A-Kiwa, a group of young artists from Aotearoa, New Zealand. They illustrated the distinct voices of Tonga, Samoa, and Niue, through traditional and contemporary visuals, movement and song. It was presented on 17 August (Thursday) from 1:45 PM to 2:15 PM (5:45 - 6:15 UTC) at the Plenary, Halls 401/402 Suntec Convention Centre.
In recognition of the legacy of Ada Lovelace and hosted by Our Lady’s Home of Compassion - Te Piringa Pūaroha o Te Whaea Tapu in Island Bay, Te Whanganui-a-Tara an editing event where people can come together to learn about editing.

Te Hau ki Tūranga - wharenui at Te Papa
If one considers the Rongowhakaata wharenui Te Hau ki Tūranga, which was built in 1843, roman text is used to identity tūpuna within the wharenui. It is but one of several non-customary mnemonic systems to enter the wharenui. (Bob Janke p34[1])
