Assumptions of reader knowledge about NZ

I added an explicit reference to New Zealand in the lede, but I still wonder if a casual reader of this article would have a hard time realizing that it was about New Zealand government, unless they had prior knowledge about the names in this article already. As a non-Kiwi user, it at least disoriented me. Joe Schmedley^T* 17:07, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

In the long run

An editor changed " many of the promised economic benefits of the experiment never materialized" to "did not immediately materialise." His source is a NZ government report that says that economic growth returned after 1993, which would be about ten years later.

However the source makes no connection between Rogernomics and later recovery and it is synthesis to say that. If there are sources that make the connection, they should be presented. We could then establish the degree of support it has in reliable sources.

I have opened a discussion thread at the "No original research" noticeboard. TFD (talk) 00:43, 25 July 2014 (UTC)

Is this resolved? I agree with TFD that if the source doesn't establish a connection, then it shouldn't be stated. I am not, however, opposed to simply describing the subsequent historical outcomes without comment as to causation. EllenCT (talk) 19:44, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

The IP has never responded. I do not see the point of what happened later unless some source draws a connection. TFD (talk) 20:43, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

Immediate results section issues

The current "Immediate results" section does not seem neutral, reading the section you would think that there is not a person in the world with a positive thing to say about Roger Douglas. Much of the section particularly the third paragraph is sourced directly by government statistics. These sources simply record the statistics mentioned - this is original research. I am sure something more neutral can be written. Omcnoe (talk) 09:35, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
