[edit] Renaming

Why on Earth move this from Lyttelton, New Zealand? If there's any disambiguation necessary, Lyttelton itself is available, as is Lyttelton (New Zealand).

I moved it to Lyttelton, New Zealand (not realising it had been there previously) because that is the standard form for NZ place names. Only in cases where a NZ city is the best-known usage of a word worldwide is the name alone used. - but (location) was dead ugly and not used for any other place name in NZ. Lyttelton is also a surname, of course, but will probably always be preceded by a first name for articles about people. dramatic 11:00, 9 Jul 2004 (UTC)
