New Zealand Government Branding

Given that the New Zealand's State Services are meant to be apolitical, I find it interesting that the link to New Zealand Government in this article links to Politics of New Zealand via a redirect. The State Services Commission has launched all of All-of-Government brand identified as New Zealand Government or newzealand.govt.nz if online. I am thinking that this needs better explanation as the political articles neglect to mention the state sector agencies that are part of the organs of government.

Merger Proposal

There is no need for separate articles on the State Services Commissioner and and the State Services Commission. The Commissioner is simply head of the Commission. I propose the Commissioner article be merged into this article about State Services Commission.Outsidetherocks (talk) 07:00, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Te Kawa Mataaho Public Service Commission

It has just been brought to my attention that that State Service Commission has been renamed as Te Kawa Mataaho Public Service Commission yet this Wikipedia article continues to be named State Services Commission. I believe it should be renamed but I thought I'd also raise this for community consultation here in case anyone might object. - Ambrosia10 (talk) 21:54, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As a pakeha? Raised firmly in what you might know as Maoritanga - in my case as a lad in the world's only self-governing Maori country, Avaiki, Cook Islands. Love our bilingual signs .. finally ! What, 170+ years? Kia ora!

But as us editors here on a wiki? If it's an english wiki, an english description always comes first. Same for French. Every other language wiki or website. Otherwise, confusion. For example!

"Fonction publique française" to headline an English-reading audience to the "French civil service" would be, what, kind of too much wiki ?

tl;dr long story short - love, respect te reo Maori - and should be right there in the description.

Just not as the headline/title?
