I am Jonathan Ah Kit, of Lower Hutt, New Zealand, a New Zealand Wikipedian. As such, I usually only speak New Zealand English. I have too many websites for me to remember; they are eventually found from http://www.electric.gen.nz/. E-mail sent to me at hydro@electric.gen.nz (mailto:hydro@electric.gen.nz) gets to me, subject to my SpamAssassin installation (though lately it seems some of the SMTP servers electric.gen.nz uses have showed up some odd errors for people writing to me).
I have just discovered Wikipedia on February 12, 2003, after needing an entry during the course of my studies at the Wellington College of Education.
(Yes, I am the hapless author-publisher of ISBN 0-473-09997-7, a spring break project of mine.)
I have no idea how to pronounce my surname, though there are several misspellings of it going around.
- I am not a relation of the Northern Territory, Australia politician John Ah Kit, nor his son Jonathan Ah Kit.
- To confuse things, however, I briefly lived in Darwin. Rather nice place.
My current favourite books are ISBN 0747551006 and, since I got it as a birthday present a few weeks ago, ISBN 0-553-26375-7.

- Archives New Zealand (I am listed as making the second edit, but I wrote the first article before I discovered the Wikipedia login box and created myself this username just now)
- Lower Hutt/Hutt City (added and corrected spellings of some suburbs, and noted that Hutt City's name is still Lower Hutt legally (so has somebody else), though many to my chagrin call it Hutt City now)
- God Defend New Zealand (added a note on a 1978 official alternative to the original arrangement)
- New Zealand Wikipedian (added myself)
- Australia (added myself)
- complete alphabetical listing (added myself)
- Wellington College of Education
- Department of Internal Affairs
- Treaty of Waitangi (minor grammatical changes)
- State sector organisations in New Zealand (makeover of article, grabbed data off the SSC website, and merged it with data from some agencies' sites)
- Air New Zealand and Freedom Air (grammatical corrections and cross links between the two)
- Provinces of New Zealand – they’re still used today in a minor form, so why not list them? As a result, I added a list of provincial anniversary days. :)
- On that same tangent, I did a list of New Zealand cities and (historical) provincial districts.
- I've edited some of the articles pertaining to Niue to familiarise myself for a t-coll assignment.
I've contributed quite a bit of stuff, so obviously not everything is listed here. :)
In case you hadn't noticed, this is modelled on the entry on Carey Evans.
