Thanks Mike. Well given my feedback, hopefully it will be soon! Are you going to create an article for the reserve? I've decided to spend some time this morning working on the list of reserves article. At least adding Wellington scenic reserves.

I've expanded the Wikidata item for the reserve, created a Wikidata item for its management plan, added it to the Wikipedia article list of scenic reserves (that article NEEDS work) and contacted the New Zealand Gazetteer as it doesn't seem to have any record of this scenic reserve.
