Template talk:Politics of Palestine

message: This page should not refer to "politics of the Palestinian National Authority", since it is the template for several movements who are not part of, do not recognize, or are even actively hostile to the Authority (such as Hamas and the PFLP). If it is considered controversial to use "Politics of Palestine" (in the nation-sense, not the independent state-sense), then may I suggest "Palestinian Politics" as a compromise?

message: I do not understand why this template includes "State of Palestine."  This is a reference to a 1988 declaration that did not actually create a State of Palestine, which does not exist.  That "State" has no relationship with the Palestinian National Authority, which is what this template is about.  Of course, the PNA would like its efforts to result in "A" State of Palestine, but the empty declaration of 1988 is not that "State."  See Talk:State of Palestine.   6SJ7 20:53, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I listed both Salam Fayyad and Ismail Haniyeh as Prime Ministers, since Hamas claims that Haniyeh's dismissal and Fayyad's appointment were illegal, and therefore Haniyeh is still PM (see e.g. ). I don't think Wikipedia should take sides in this controversy. -- uriber 18:07, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with this. In line with NPOV Wikipedia should ackowledge that the post is disputed.--Peter cohen 22:01, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it would be better to take out both names and where the name of the PM would be, put "Disputed" with a link to whichever article best describes the current situation. At present, there really is no PM as that term is commonly understood, so why bother giving names -- just say it is disputed and point to an article with the names.  6SJ7 22:21, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'll be happy with that option too. What I'm not happy with is the inconsitency where the Politics of the Palestinian National Authority lists one PM and here lists two, or indeed none. --Peter cohen 23:24, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Current Prime Minister 

message: Abdel Aziz Duwaik (assumed
office on Jan. 9, 2009)?
Although legally he is to assume office in case the President does not call for elections within one year of the constitutional term, Duwaik never assumed office and was never recommended by the Legislative Counsel as the constitution states. In other words the presidency of Duwaik is merely a political opinion, with nothing related to any constitutional documents. He is infact the acting-president of the Palestinian Legislative Council, as he was never officially reinstated for a second term by the Legislative Counsel. I recommend that such details be edited, to avoid the politicization of the article entries and ensure Wikipedia qualities.

replies: text: The State of Palestine is not the same thing as the Palestinian National Authority (tough they may be in the process of merging). This template covers the State, the Authority, and the Palestine Liberation Organization.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk • contribs) 08:07, 17 February 2013 (UTC)
