Second only to Ponsonby Road, what about Parnell Rd and Cuba St in Wellington?

Notable Residents: Criteria for inclusion?
I've been adding a lot of people with little thought for this criteria apart from they have had some kind of major impact in their particular field. However, Darius_Dhlomo has been adding NZ field hockey players to notable residents lists for every city and small town in NZ. Do these people really warrant inclusion? Surely, if we include every representative sportsperson (rugby, netball, league, cricket etc.) then this list will be completely out of control.
At the same time, I think Daniel Vettori as one of NZ's top all time cricket players (a widely popular sport after all) warrants inclusion.

Absolutely Daniel warrants inclusion - even went to my school St Paul's Collegiate School - I am not sure about some of the others (I've never heard of the billionaires alleged in Monaco - and does money warrrant inclusionanyway?)
I don't think that field hockey players should be included, it's not like hockey is a huge spectator or participant sport in NZ.
