Merge with President[edit]

This page should be merged with President. Chart123 01:14, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose. Presidency includes the whole executive branch under the President. It is equal to Administration (government) and should be separated from the article President. --Neo-Jay (talk) 01:25, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose for the same reasons. Tomtom9041 (talk) 16:10, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support I know that I'm 13 years late, but a lot of this article (as noted below) relates to Prime Ministers, most of it is unsourced (so shouldn't be on Wikipedia) and all of it overlaps with various articles, including President of the United States and President (government title). Whatever is of actual value on this page should be moved to these various pages, though I can't find anything in particular. Unlike the users before me, I don't see what value this page adds to the area of the executive branch under the President. Apologies if this sounds harsh.

Deleting Prime Ministers[edit]

A Prime Ministership is concretely different from a presidency. It's an absurd Americanism to maintain all heads of executive branches as kinds of Presidents. --175.125.118.89 (talk) 14:13, 17 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Impact of recent student edits[edit]

This article has recently been edited by students as part of their course work for a university course. As part of the quality metrics for the education program, we would like to determine what level of burden is placed on Wikipedia's editors by student coursework.

If you are an editor of this article who spent time correcting edits to it made by the students, please tell us how much time you spent on cleaning up the article. Please note that we are asking you to estimate only the negative effects of the students' work. If the students added good material but you spent time formatting it or making it conform to the manual of style, or copyediting it, then the material added was still a net benefit, and the work you did improved it further. If on the other hand the students added material that had to be removed, or removed good material which you had to replace, please let us know how much time you had to spend making those corrections. This includes time you may have spent posting to the students' talk pages, or to Wikipedia noticeboards, or working with them on IRC, or any other time you spent which was required to fix problems created by the students' edits. Any work you did as a Wikipedia Ambassador for that student's class should not be counted.

Please rate the amount of time spent as follows:

  • 0 -No unproductive work to clean up
  • 1 - A few minutes of work needed
  • 2 - Between a few minutes and half an hour of work needed
  • 3 - Half an hour to an hour of work needed
  • 4 - More than an hour of work needed

Please also add any comments you feel may be helpful. We welcome ratings from multiple editors on the same article. Add your input here. Thanks! -- LiAnna Davis (WMF) (talk) 20:21, 27 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
