You should do the best of Queens street. (is the construction done there by the way?) Or Queens street/ K road fun facts. like...how many burger kings are there on q street? >10. haha.

How about how poor the education system is and how it disadvantages boys? Or how about the poor quality roads? How overpriced everything is? Nonexistent service? How about how anti male the country is? I would use the term facist to describe the NZ government system, but most Kiwi's through lack of any suitable education system would not recognize the style of government or even understand the term.

you need to focus primarily on what tourists want to read,

1)good places to wine and dine,
2)accomodation,
3)shopping and of course
4)tourist attractions (dont forget rainbows end for this one, lol)
and even guides on how to get to these points, including transportation options and easy to read maps. being a regular tourist myself, tourists CRAVE easy guides on these 4 things

Something for the tourists – Free or cheap stuff to do and see around Auckland – ‘See Auckland on a budget’

How about some info on neighborhoods, food options, local parks (Shakespeare park is cool and the Gannett Colony), the surrounding islands (Tiritiri Matangi Island is amazing), shopping, history, where to stay, how to get from the airport to akl (this is quite a challenge for newcommers!). Hope that helps.....? Oh, maybe music scene, neighborhoods to avoid.
