Aus-NZ or NZ-Aus edit

"Why should Australia always go first?" is a compelling question. One answer is that it usually goes first in things like ANZAC, ANZCERTA, Aus-NZ Food Authority, SANZAR, and everywhere that the distinction can be made on List of Australia-New Zealand-related articles. Australia shouldn't always go first. It should only go first in published names and agreements such as the examples already given. Otherwise New Zealand can go first, or Australia. Being first named is being first thought of, but not being more important because neither is more important in the explanation of this subject matter. It wasn't an Australian who first successfully made it to the top of the world's highest mountain, it was a New Zealander and a Nepali working together . —Preceding unsigned comment added by Popecreator (talkcontribs) 06:48, 16 May 2010 (UTC)Reply


this was raised a short time a go the preference should be in all cases to follow alpabetical precedence in all cases where there is no clear distinction e.g. mount everast new zealand should go first, this allows for simplicity and reduces the potential for edit wars where ppl keep moving back and forth based on ideological grounds.
