Talk:President of Singapore/Archive 2

Presidental Elections Committee

I edited the article President of Singapore to add a section on the Presidential Elections Committee not in order to remove the qualification but to make it clear who decides who can run for president. The article needs to make this much clearer. However, I leave the wording of that section to you. --Ghormax 14:46, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Oh, I see. Well, although there's already a separate article on the Presidential Elections Committee, I suppose it would be a good idea to have some more detailed mention about the Committee in the 'President of Singapore' article. Perhaps you could start off the new sub-section by working on a summary of the 'Presidential Elections Committee' article? Cheers, Jacklee 21:48, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Merger proposal

I propose that the stub article "Presidential Elections Committee" be merged into this article. The present article is already quite substantial, and I feel there's no reason to have a short, separate article on the Presidential Elections Committee when the Committee's sole purpose is to approve candidates for the Presidency. "Presidential Elections Committee" can be changed into a redirect page pointing to the present article. Views? Cheers, Jacklee 05:54, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

There was no response after ten days, so I went ahead and merged "Presidental Elections Committee" into this article. Cheers, Jacklee 01:26, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

Infobox

Hi, an anonymous editor recently added an infobox for this article about the President of Singapore. I removed it because I felt that it's unnecessary – this is the only article that the infobox can possibly appear in. More importantly, it disrupts the layout of the article since it displaces the {{Politics of Singapore}}, thus creating masses of white space. Also, the formatting of the infobox needs cleaning up. Views, anyone? Cheers, Jacklee 13:03, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

Nathan's portrait

Perhaps a portrait/photo of the current president should be added? ĞavinŤing 15:22, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Realized there was a Wikimedia Commons image of President S.R. Nathan available, so your wish is granted. — Cheers, JackLee ^–talk– 23:06, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Ong.jpg

Image:Ong.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
