Talk:2008 Italian government crisis

message: I think it's just a little early in the year for an article to be properly named "2008 Italian political crisis".  Although for the sake of Italians that it is the only political crisis this year.  -- SEWilco (talk) 20:21, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Now this I do agree with... it's not a "crisis" yet.  I'd say Italy is starting to get a knack for changing governments, seeing as it's a near-annual event. :) I haven't really looked into it: do we have any history of articles on transitions between Italian governments?  We may wish to use them as a naming template -- might as well define a standard now so we don't have to figure out a name for the 2009 article! --Bossi (talk • gallery • contrib) 03:23, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

text: I suggest 2008 Italian cabinet crisis. If there should be one more cabinet crisis this year, it could be renamed January 2008 cabinet crisis. --Oddeivind (talk) 22:09, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

text: I'm inclined to agree with what the anon brought up: BBC and Reuters are certainly good validation for using "crisis".  As that word was really my only concern, I'd now support the name change and I'd also be OK with what we have now. --Bossi (talk • gallery • contrib) 18:07, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Overly broad article name 

message: Now that the article is approaching completion, I think it would be appropriate to merge this into Italian general election, 2008 as a Background section.  This article is still a stub, so it'd effectively be like renaming the article.  We can then continue to expand Italian general election, 2008 as new info comes in.  Thoughts? --Bossi (talk • gallery • contrib) 12:30, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Not experienced enough for discussing editorial changes of this size - however, I agree that this article is basically finished, and that there should not be many more changes. --Dr.falko (talk) 13:09, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd incline to keep the two articles separate. Firstly, they are about distinct events: not all political crises lead to general elections nor all general elections are a consequence of a crisis. Secondly, the article about 2008 general election is bound to be quite long, what with the new parties (like the newborn Democratic Party), the concurrent local elections and so forth. See Italian general election, 2006 for the sizable article about last elections. Goochelaar (talk) 13:27, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: IF it should be merged, your proposal is the best one so far. This just shows that it was right to wait before taking a decision. --Oddeivind (talk) 08:40, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm inclined to keep this article, but at any rate I'd wait at last until the elections, to see the final size of the Italian general election, 2008. If it's too big, the "Background" section, formerly "2008 Italian political crisis" it's likely to be split out anyway, so waiting a few weeks can't hurt. GhePeU (talk) 13:10, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. --Bossi (talk • gallery • contrib) 16:40, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
