Talk:2024 Puerto Rico gubernatorial election

Descriptors of elective positions ('territorial' vs other descriptors)
There has been a bit of a back and forth on this article about attaching the word territorial to positions such as senators or representatives. While Puerto Rico is an United States unincorporated territory, the official titles of these positions do not include that term. They are either district or at-large Senators or Representatives. Is there some reason for this insistence on this terminology here? Rashido16 (talk) 16:21, 24 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Just "senator" or "representative" creates confusion. Are you talking about the U.S. Senate or the Puerto Rico Senate? This is why pages about mainland elections use the titles "state senator" and "state representative." But Puerto Rico is a territory, not a state. Hence, "territorial senator" BottleOfChocolateMilk (talk) 04:05, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
 * But that makes no sense. Puerto Rico is not a state. Therefore it does not elect either U.S. Senators for Puerto Rico nor congressmen (but a resident commissioner). It adds nothing, as opposed to the current "district/at-large senator/representative" label. There are no senators or representatives to the Federal legislature that would be feasibly from Puerto Rico, hence no confusion. Rashido16 (talk) 18:14, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Alternatively, I do not see why, if we are going to attach unnecessarily unofficial portions to official titles, why this is not extended to the Governor. Why not territorial governor, lest someone confuses this with a state governor?
 * I digress, but I will avoid attaching updated content to this page (of which there is plenty to include) until this is addressed in a rule that is consistent and logical throughout. If that rule is that for some reason "territorial" must be attached in front of every archipelago-wide position, or to positions appertaining to the gobierno central, as is locally termed, then so be it: territorial Governor, territorial At-Large Senator, territorial Senator for the XX District, territorial Secretary of Justice, etc. I hope it is not, as it would be rather odd, but if that is the decision, then so be it.
