File talk:Countries with Female Heads of State and Government.svg

Finland
Finland should be filled in dark green because in the country the head of state is separate from the head of government and the country has had women in both posts

United Kingdom
The UK should also be coloured in Green as they have had female heads of state and government. Yes you could argue as Elizabeth II is not elected she shouldn't be on there, but why is Canada, New Zealand and Australia then coloured in green, and not the UK? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.25.220.193 (talk) 23:06, 5 January 2013 (UTC)

It can be said New Zealand, Australia and Canada have Governors as their heads of state, in a sense, which is a political/assigned position and not hereditary. The UK only has the monarch, so their status differs (I don't know if any of those governors were female, but I think NZ had). But I would say it would make more sense to mark the UK (and other countries in similar status) as green as if the role were combined. Yellow implies they have still improvement to make, which is untrue. --Adi Stav (talk) 01:25, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

South Korea
The president there is head of state, whereas he prime minister is head of gov. So, South Korea must be marked green. --49.147.169.249 (talk) 08:03, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Slovenia also needs added in yellow since their new PM is a woman -- Darthdyas (talk) 13:18, 6 April 2013 (UTC)

Israel
Israel had Golda Meir as a female Prime Minister (head of government) and never had a female President (head of state), and so should be marked yellow and not green. --Adi Stav (talk) 01:25, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

China
People's Republic of China currently has neither a female Head of State or Head of Government. It should not be colored in.

Poland and marking countries currently having female leaders
A new government is forming in Poland. Ewa Kopacz was nominated to become a PM by the president on 15.09, not 22.09: [News in Polish, use Google Translate]. Can we distinguish countries having a woman leader at the moment?--86.3.42.147 (talk) 08:55, 19 September 2014 (UTC)

Denmark
Denmark has had a female head of government since 2011 in addition to a female head of state. --Svippong 11:18, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Nevermind, this is not a current list, it is just have had list. --Svippong 11:19, 31 December 2014 (UTC)

Query/Clarification
Canada ?????? So Trudeau is female ?????? even governor-general David Johnston is female ??? (He is not Head of Government) ... and Australia ???? Turnbull ?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.200.118.90 (talk) 16:43, 31 October 2015 (UTC)
 * The map tallies the history of female state leaders, not incumbents. Therequiembellishere (talk) 06:01, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

Switzerland
The Presidents/Federal Council serve as heads of state and government, and so should be light green. Therequiembellishere (talk) 06:01, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

Title
Also, given the confusion regarding the map not reflecting female monarchs, perhaps the map could be re-titled something like, "Non-Hereditary Female State Leaders"? Therequiembellishere (talk) 06:04, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

Myanmar
I note that Myanmar is marked in grey on this map, although Aung San Suu Kyi is de facto head of government and listed as such in the article. Does the map need updating? Grutness... wha?   01:13, 23 August 2016 (UTC)
