Talk:Third Churchill ministry

Ministry/Government
Most of the pages for specific British governments have

(1). a page with only those ministers who actually sat round the Cabinet table, called '[Name of Prime Minister] Government

(2). a page which also includes junior ministers, called '[Name of Party] Government, 19xx - 19xx'. Compare Callaghan ministry and Labour Government 1974–1979.

As this one falls into the second category, I propose to revert the redirect. Alekksandr (talk) 14:32, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

“Ministry” means all members of government, not just the cabinet. Furthermore, Cabinet members are easy to find in this list, since they are bolded and emphasized. There is no reason to have one barebones article with just the cabinet members. This provides a comprehensive list and eliminates redundancy. The reason the 1974-1979 one remains is due to the fact that it is harder to split, as it includes both the ministers of the Callaghan and the Second Wilson ministries.

 * A separate cabinet list is definitely helpful, especially since some of these ministers joined the cabinet at various points, and the simpler list makes it much easier to find the specific cabinet list. It could be included here at the top, as is done in most of the other articles on ministries, if someone could find a good list (I don't particularly trust what we have now). john k (talk) 04:39, 28 December 2015 (UTC)

Merge?
Is there any reason for not merging this into Later life of Winston Churchill ? Mcljlm (talk) 15:34, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
