Could we get a section at the bottom called 'Recently removed from list'?

It would be interesting to see what rulers had been voted out, deposed, term-limited, died, etc... in the recent past (last 1-2 years).

The president of Latvia asked on 24 august Evika Silina to form a government making her Prime Minister designate of Latvia, and on 9 September Andry Rajoelina President of Madagascar was replaced by the president of the senate as an acting president. Can someone update the page? 178.197.214.200 (talk) 22:06, 12 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Spajic is set to become Prime Minister on 24 October 178.197.210.14 (talk) 14:42, 17 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Change arbitrary table breaks between different years to two tables "List of state leaders by date of assuming office" and "List of upcoming leaders". This will make the list easier to use externally. AnSchulz (talk) 10:15, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{Edit semi-protected}} template. JTP ^{(talk • contribs)} 00:23, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Following up on this one. Would be really good with just two lists of current leaders and upcoming leaders. Year would then have to be added to the date from 2020 and unwards. AnSchulz (talk) 08:58, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This shouldn't be here. It's gone, up and vanished. Some of these opposition claimants like in Belarus are likewise questionable inclusions. Killuminator (talk) 15:16, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest we combine the different list into two lists: "List of current state leaders by date of assuming office" and "List of upcoming state leaders". This will give a better overview as well as making it easier to export and maintain. Year would then have to be added to the date from 2020 and unwards. Apologies for the crossposting, I am new to Wikipedia. AnSchulz (talk) 07:47, 16 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Should a note be added to record that Ibrahim Iskandar of Johor is the son of a previous Yang di-Pertuan Agong? It looks like this isn't normally done for hereditary heads of state in this list, but the position is elective/rotational, so not every holder will be the son of a previous one as not all of those eligible will live long enough for their turn to come around. Any thoughts? 217.155.59.206 (talk) 11:49, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Should a note be added to record that Prabowo Subianto is the son-in-law of former President Suharto? Or is that not significant enough as a relationship? Seems very pertinent in the context of Indonesian politics. 217.155.59.206 (talk) 11:49, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Should Nayib Bukele be moved (temporarily and with a note explaining the circumstances) to the 'upcoming' list, while keeping Claudia Rodríguez de Guevara in the main list for the time being? Not a straightforward case I know, but without context it looks odd to have a president and acting president for the same country both in the same list.217.155.59.206 (talk) 11:49, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

None of these family notes should be in the article, it's

WP:TRIVIA. If someone wants to write an article around the prevalence of political dynasties and/or lesser nepobabies in politics, they should do that. Therequiembellishere (talk) 05:51, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply

"The first day he could give the exploratory mandate to GERB was Wednesday. According to the Constitution, GERB should receive it as the first political force in the current parliament. Once she receives it, she will have seven days to return it to the president with a cabinet proposal. If it fails to form a government, the mandate will go to the party next in terms of votes - PP-DB. If the second attempt to form a government is also unsuccessful, the third mandate is given to a party of the president's choice. In case she also fails to fulfill the mandate, Radev appoints a caretaker government whose main task is to organize early parliamentary elections."
