Order of elected officials

As in this edit to the article for Mendham Borough, New Jersey, you have reordered elected officials with the edit summary that "Members should be in chronological order of election, following mayor/council president". Why is it that they "should be" ordered in chronological order rather than alphabetical order? Alansohn (talk) 14:02, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

@Alansohn: Chronological order is used in the Morris County Manual, which incidentally is used as a source for this information. Find it here >[Manual].

The Morris County Manual is not *THE* source; it's *A" source. The Borough Council listing for Mendham Borough is in alphabetical order. The order is inherently arbitrary (there is no "should be" here) and there appears to be no reason to switch the order to match one source and not another. Alansohn (talk) 14:45, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

@Alansohn: I wish you no ill will, you have an incredible record as an editor, creator, and all around beneficial person. Maybe "should be" was not the best choice of words, but that being said, I still believe that they should be ordered in the order they were elected. I believe that organizing in such a fashion is no more "arbitrary" (to use your phrase), than alphabetical order. However, if there is no agreement we can come to, and feel that you must change it back, make sure you keep that Mr. Badal is the Council President, that fact isn't on the website or the manual but rather in the reorganization minutes I added as a source.
