message: I tried working on the timeline in the Fifth Republic: Presidents section, but I can't quite get it to work right. The problems with it, as I see it are: its bad links (for Georges Pompidou and Valery Giscard d'Estaing), it's unreadable (light blue on blue?), and Mitterrand's block is red for no apparent reason.

replies: text: Have you considered that Mitterrand's block may have been in red because he was a Socialist? Just a thought. -- Lincolnite 23:36, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Presidents Timeline

message: Monsieur Poher isn't usually venerated as a true président de la République.  If nobody's really against it I'll take his name off the list and put a note down below or something.  As it is, he looks just as important as de Gaulle, d'Estaing or Mitterand.  Any comments or suggestions ?  Take a look at the French version to see how they do it, too.  --Aquarelle 23:10, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Just for your information, Alain Poher is considering as a real President, even if he was not elected. Constitutionnaly speaking, in case of vacancy of President (death or over big reason), Senate President have to assure the Presidency, with smaller rights, to organize new election (same as vice president in United Stated, with rigth smaller !)

message: To Fifth French Republic (I am proposing this change for all French Republic articles.) 
Fifth French Republic is a more precise translation of Cinquième République Française. The official name of the country is the French Republic, and it is the fifth one.  Funnyhat 07:02, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Let's keep the discussion unfragmented, since we will either make all these name changes or none of them.  Could everyone please respond on Talk:French Fourth Republic? Phaunt 22:35, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

message: This article should probably be brought inline with the formatting of the other republic articles in the series. I've copied the template over, but unfortunately the country template doesn't seem to offer support for linkages to former incarnations. Other tweaks are also necessary. --Belg4mit (talk) 17:26, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

message: Is France still a republic? I doubt it. I recon all of France has been under foreign occupation again since about the time of the Millenium. That would make Jaques Chiraq the final president of the fifth republic.

thread_title:  Ignore This 

message: So, the English Wikipedia has articles entitled First and Second French Empire.  Number, then nationality - which is proper according to the rules of adjectival order in English.
This is not a matter of empires vs. republics, as we also have articles on the First and Second Spanish Republics.
Yet we persist with this inaccurate and inconsistent "nationality, then number" rule for the French Republics. I'm going to assume that a non-native English speaker made the innocent mistake of writing "French First Republic" (and continued from there) in the beginning ... but do not understand why we insist on perpetuating this mistake.
But then, we spent two decades displaying the wrong flag of Austria-Hungary, so I guess we're a stubborn bunch? 2600:1702:6D0:5160:D9B3:92CC:9790:303E (talk) 20:49, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Opposed. Usage and WP:COMMONNAME  trumps WP:CONSISTENCY, so you'll have to deal with the former, if you can. You can start with this ngrams. Looks like you might have had a point, up until around 1980 or 1985, but since then, there seems to be consistent support for the current name in books. Mathglot (talk) 06:07, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
