Talk:Major Ministry

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

My apologies for the confusion- I appear to have created a duplicate article, however i.m.h.o & from my experience the title Major Ministry is perhaps worse than mine, John Major's Cabinets, as few people will find this page when searching for the Cabinet of the UK from 1990-97, unless they know where to look- however this one seems a little more detailed- perhaps 'Major Ministry's' content & John Major's Cabinets as the title?

I think the pages should be merged but this one is far better, both because of the layout and links, and because 'Major Ministry' is a more appropriate name (constitutionally, they were not 'John Major's Cabinets' but the Queen's, as all ministers are appointed by the Crown on the PM's advice). Definitely support a merge into this page.Peeper 17:39, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

This is certainly the better layout, however I don't like the title. I take the point that they are actually the Queen's minister and departments but at the end of the day they are effectively the PM's ministers, name a ministerial appointment the Queen has rejected in her time as head of state!

Does the MOS not suggest the most obvious titles? Well "Major Ministry" is not that. I found this page out of curiosity from a "what links here". I didn't know what I was going to find, however if the link was "John Major's Cabinets" it is self explanatory. I propose this article is merged into John Major's Cabinets, but full credit be given to the author of this page for the excellent work! Mark83 23:10, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

This version got replaced for some reason: [1], but I don't know the article well enough to know whether to revert. —Pengo 02:16, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
