My main reasons why Q should always be maxed first:

1) Q has a longer Reach then W,  which is better for running enemies

2) Q has a shorter Coolddown then W

3) Q has lower Mana Cost

4) Q effects Minions

5) Q procs On Hit Effects (FM, Wits, Sheen, LB,  Life Steal, etc.)

6) Q is scaled in both AP and AD.

Reasons to max W first:

1) Hits muli targets

2) Slows/Increases ally/enemy DPS users attack speed (Fiora, Master Yi, etc.)

W is a great skill but surely, it not as effective as Q overall. It helps when you face high DPS champions, and since most DPS don't build much MR it is strong, but effectiveness in laning is minimal to say the least unless you decide only to attack Champions and have a low Minion Kill, which would give a low gold output to get anything good.
