I didn't really have a presentation for my demonstration at the NDF, but the event team have asked for presentations, so here are the notes for my practice demonstration that I did within the library. The notes served as an advert to attract punters to the demo; as a conversation starter in the actual demo and as a set of bookmarks of the URLs I wanted to open.
Depending on what people are interested in, I'll be doing three things
*) Demonstrating basic editing, perhaps by creating a page from the requested articles at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_New_Zealand/Requested_articles
*) Discussing some of the quality control processes I've been involved with (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_pages_patrol)
*) Discussing how wikipedia handles authority control issues using redirects (https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Wikipedia:Redirect ) and disambiguation (https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Wikipedia:Disambiguation )
I'm also open to suggestions of other things to talk about.
