Talk:Declaration by United Nations

big four?
I tried to find a reference that there were indeed a big four in WWII. I found a lot of reference to WWI big four, but hardly any using the term in WWII context; and of those few using it, France is included more often than China. Do we have reliable references using the term big 4 in this context???? For now I put up tags asking for a reference. Arnoutf (talk) 19:36, 9 April 2015 (UTC)

 * No, the document's title is "Declaration by United Nations" hence this article's title. Paul August &#9742; 11:34, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Ok. Just seemed to be bad grammar. Discussion closed 69.165.196.103 (talk) 23:37, 12 January 2017 (UTC)

Philippine Commonwealth
The government of the Commonwealth of the Philippines was a national government, and it did have a government in exile. The following is a snippet from the lead section if the WP article on it:

"The Commonwealth of the Philippines [...] was the administrative body that governed the Philippines from 1935 to 1946, aside from a period of exile in the Second World War from 1942 to 1945 when Japan occupied the country."

This article currently places countries with governments in exile during WW-II into a distinct table section. If this is to be done, the Philippine Commonwealth government ought to be included in that table section.

I see that the Philippines [sic, should be the Commonwealth of] is currently identified as a later signatory in the table (having signed the declaration on June 10, after establishing the government in exile instead of on January 1 as the Philippines was reeling under Japanese invasion; see e.g., this for some background). I just stumbled on this article today and have not previously been involved in its development, so I'm not going to jump in at this point and suggest how this problem ought to be resolved. I do suggest, though, that it be resolved. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 08:19, 17 April 2017 (UTC) I have added mention of the Philippines to the In exile section of the table. The table now mentions the Philippines in two separate sections. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 01:10, 19 April 2017 (UTC)

text source in League of Nations Treaty Series
The text of the declaration was registered and published as a treaty in the League of Nations Treaty Series, volume 204, p. 381 (treaty number 4817)

In that publication, it was accompanied by the texts of the Atlantic Charter and of the Tripartite Pact-- Bancki (talk) 08:59, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
