are the external links here all necessary?
I would suggest moving the external links to more specific pages, rather than linking to every official prime ministerial page in the world from this one. For example, move http://www.premier-ministre.gouv.fr/en/ from here to Prime Minister of France; move http://eng.forsaetisraduneyti.is/ from here to Prime Minister of Iceland; and so on. Any objections? --Delirium (talk) 20:42, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
List of prime ministers by country
The removal of Palestine from the list of PM's by country has been reverted and the following message left on my home page. Surely this article discussion page is a better place for the explanation.
Hi. I reverted your last edit to that article, I'm afraid. You removed Palestine from the list of prime ministers by country, arguing that Palestine is not a country. While this is obviously technically true, I don't think it is an uncontroversial edit. As such, I think you should discuss on the talk page first whether or not Palestine should be removed from the list. If, then, consensus is reached that it should be removed, you are of course very free to remove it again. I hope this is okay with you, and you should by no mean think that your contributions are not appreciated. -Lilac Soul (talk • contribs • count) • I'm watching this page so just reply to me right here! 16:43, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

- It's a list of Prime Ministers. Palestine has a Prime Minister so it should be listed here. Catchpole (talk) 18:09, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- Not quite. It is a list of PM's by country. Palestine is not a country. However, the Palestinian National Authority does have a person identified as PM, but it also is not a country. I have therefore now corrected the list to say "Government" instead of "Country," so that an entry might be included for this PM. I have also corrected the identified government to Palestinian National Authority from Palestine. It would be nice if, consistent with WP recommended guidelines, there was some effort to improve edits rather than merely reverting. Doright (talk) 18:42, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
