- Hi Gadfium, can you refer me to the specific guidelines on alphabeticalised alumni and linked names being required for this section. The vast majority of NZ schools do not adhere to either of these requirements in any strict manner.

- Each article establishes its own pattern. Alphabetical by surname is common. You took a single entry, which the school might not want to be prominent, and moved it down the list, while also removing detail from the entry. You also added a couple of entries of people who may not be notable. I see you have now changed the order to be alphabetical by first name. If you believe this is the optimal order, I will leave that to others to decide.-gadfium 09:04, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230418090400","author":"Gadfium","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Gadfium-20230418090400-The_wiki_architect-20230418070200","replies":["c-The_wiki_architect-20230418092600-Gadfium-20230418090400"]}}-->
- Thank you for the clarification. The previous edit was made without knowing whether the first or last name alphabetization was being used.
