Nēnē is the correct usage of Hawaiian diacriticals, not Néné. What's the deal with the acute é. The obscure, unusable Néné title warrants a move of this page to Hawaiian goose, the more widely used term internationally with a redirect from nene, currently a disambiguation page.

moved to capitalised form as per Wikipedia convention for bird articles. All 1500 or so species articles are capitalised, so I wish people would check what they are doing before moving pages. also mover hadn't evenbothered to fix redirects. jimfbleak 04:56, 29 Jun 2004 (UTC)

I think this page needs more information on the current project to breed these birds and release them into captivity. This species is often used as a case study on genetic diversity, and there is little information about this. Smashrgrl 8:10, 28 July 2005

[edit] Vulnerable

No wonder it is vulnerable if it is a sandwich goose :). It should be interesting to find here what measures, other than reintroduction, are locally taken to protect the species. Thank you. --DLL 21:31, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
