Merger proposal[edit]

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.

The result of this discussion was Merge all. It's been over a week sense the other articles were added to the nomination, and support for the merge was unanimous, other then the sole oppose from the creator of the "Gaza Strip" articles. Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 07:51, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The article Finance Minister of the Gaza Strip should be merged here. There is a consistent effort to portray the Gaza Strip as a separate entity or country, but the truth is that the existence of two PNA cabinets is a dispute over legitimacy and the position as such is the same (but with two claimants). --Soman (talk) 20:07, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - it is irrelevant - nobody is "portraying Gaza Strip" here, it is the offices of Hamas and Fatah are separate and the ministers are different, including responsibilities. If you like we can rename it to Finance Minister of Hamas (both can be sourced).Greyshark09 (talk) 21:46, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support Per nom and Al Ameer son's statement at Template_talk:Cities_in_the_Palestinian_National_Authority_areas#PNA_vs._Hamas. Better to handle this the way President of the Palestinian National Authority and Prime Minister of the Palestinian National Authority do. Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 22:40, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Adding Education Minister of the Gaza Strip/Education Minister of the Palestinian National Authority and Interior Minister of the Gaza Strip/Interior Minister of the Palestinian National Authority to nomination. Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 22:08, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- As for Interior Minister of the Palestinian National Authority there's nothing to merge. Greyshark removed info about the Hamas Government despite asked to discuss before making such changes. I reverted the removal.Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 22:35, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support As with all other PNA ministry articles. The Finance Minister in Gaza is still the Finance Minister of the PNA, albeit as part of a different administration. The official website itself proclaims the ministry as part of the Palestinian National Authority. [1] It should be mentioned in this article, in addition to the background events of 2007, that Zaza heads the ministry in Haniyeh's de facto administration and Fayyad heads the ministry in Fayyad's administration. This is how all ministry articles should be treated until the Gaza Strip officially secedes or the two administrations enter a unity govt. per the unity deal (which is apparently delayed indefinitely.) --Al Ameer son (talk) 23:24, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
