Bodindecha
(Thai: เจ้าพระยาบดินทรเดชา, personal name Sing Singhaseni, สิงห์ สิงหเสนี 1777–1849) was one of the most prominent political and military figures of the early Bangkok Rattanakosin Kingdom. Bodindecha was both a top military general (แม่ทัพใหญ่) and Chief Minister in charge of civilian affairs as the Akkhra Maha Senabodi (อัครมหาเสนาบดี) of the Samuha Nayok สมุหนายก) during the reign of King Rama III. He was known for putting down the Laotian Rebellion (1826–1828} (ปราบกบฎ) of Lord Anouvong of Vientiane (เจ้าอนุวงศ์ เวียงจันทน์)[1] and for campaigns during the Siamese-Vietnamese Wars of 1831–1834 and 1841–1845. —Pawyilee (talk) 15:23, 30 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It'd probably be worth creating a separate list for pre-reform Samuha Kalahom and Samuha Nayok. --Paul_012 (talk) 06:09, 5 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
If left up to me, it'd have only one name. What I don't know how to handle is that Bodindecha was contemporaneous with Andrew Jackson; and Bodindecha's war on the Lao preceded Jackson's Indian Removal Act of 1830 by a couple of years. The 1832 journal of Jackson's special agent Edmund Roberts (diplomat) has highly undiplomatic remarks about the former, seemingly oblivious to the irony if compared with the latter. Don't know how to call attention to that in ether's articles without being reverted for OR. —Pawyilee (talk) 03:58, 6 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

– The "List of..." construct isn't necessary here, since these articles (should ideally) also cover the posts themselves. Compare Chief of Staff of the United States Army, Chief of the General Staff (United Kingdom), etc. Paul_012 (talk) 10:21, 14 December 2017 (UTC) --Relisting.

  • Oppose. It's an interesting question, but I think as long as these are mainly just lists (the prose part is very small), it's more common to keep them as "List of..." See for example
    List of Presidents of Gabon are styled "List of...". The difference, as far as I can tell, seems to be that the Armenia article has a lot of sectioned information about the post etc. while the Gabon one is really just a list. I don't know if this convention is codified, but it probably makes some sense.  — Amakuru (talk) 10:45, 22 December 2017 (UTC)[reply

Since moving to the full title was not opposed, I moved the articles to "List of Commanders-in-Chief of ...". I made a mistake resulting in some inconsistent capitalisation, but they have since been de-capitalised. --Paul_012 (talk) 21:30, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
