Use these identifiers accurately

The two-letter code AQ is the compact ISO identifier used in addresses, locale selectors, and many data feeds. The dialing prefix +672 belongs at the start of an international phone number. Time zone names such as Antarctica/Rothera should be preferred over a fixed UTC offset because they carry daylight-saving rules.
