[edit] Most consistently misspelt?

Is it worth noting Midhirst's claim to the title of "New Zealand's most consistently misspelt place name"? (This is the observation of an old mail-sorter.) Maps sometimes show it as Midhurst, and this spelling even occurs on business signs in the township (probably work of a slipshod New Plymouth signwriter). I pass over the occasional cruelly facetious reference to the place as "Mudhurst".—Koro Neil (talk) 14:29, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

No, we shouldn't say it's the most misspelt place name unless there's a reliable source, and even then it would be trivia. However, I have added a hatnote to the article Midhurst should people be looking for this article instead, and a hatnote on this article for people looking for that one.-gadfium 23:49, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
