RfC : National Identifier

[edit]

Four years ago there was an RfC surrounding the what national identifier to use in association with this company in its lede sentence. Recently, there seems to be a consensus that the language arrived at in that RfC is not great. This RfC is an attempt to see if we can come to conensus on new language.

Here are possible options for what national identiefier to use to describe this company in the lede sentence.

Option A - Status quo. Maintain the last RfC's indicated language (i.e. "American aerospace manufacturer ... New Zealand subidiary")

Option B - Describe as an "American" company

Option C - Describe as a "New Zealand" company

Option D - Describe as a "America-New Zealand" or "US-New Zealand" company

Option E - Describe as "founded in New Zealand and headquarted in the US"

Option F - Don't use a national identifier in the lead sentence. Explain national identity further on in the lead.

Option G - Describe as a "multinational" company

Please tell us what you think below! If you could format your response in the following way, it would be helpful.
