As proposed on this page, I've split off the part of the article that was the bio for the person who this park is named after. As I thought, once you do the split, there's not much left of the park itself. Having now had a look to check notability, I must say that there is rather little. WP:GEOLAND states that there is no such thing as inherent notability for parks. I sense this one won't make it. Schwede 66 20:24, 13 October 2020 (UTC) reply

A long-term long-time Wellington City councillor was involved (before I came along) and so was the city historian. For me she asked the historian for precise land location info etc (it may in fact be part of Zealandia and the "park" is a consolation prize) and then there was Covid. I'll go back to the councillor now by email. If the decision is to delete this then the new info can go to Wellington's green belt article. They can name even their highest mountain and a strait after you (Cook) but never fear, they'll find a reason some day to change the name. Mutability, good name for a bit of verse.
