[edit] War on terror
This section having nothing to do with the fifth republic I deleted it. Mthibault 11:12, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
As many states use numbers to refer to different republic, it is important to state which state's fifth republic it is. While I don't know of another fifth republic, there are a number of first and second republics. It is worth keeping a consistent style throughout all the French republics, so it should be [[{state} {number} Republic]]. FearÉIREANN 17:27 12 Jun 2003 (UTC)
[edit] Presidents Timeline
I tried working on the timeline in the Fifth Republic: Presidents section, but I can't quite get it to work right. The problems with it, as I see it are: its bad links (for Georges Pompidou and Valery Giscard d'Estaing), it's unreadable (light blue on blue?), and Mitterand's block is red for no apparent reason.

- Have you considered that Mitterand's block may have been in red because he was a Socialist? Just a thought. -- Lincolnite 23:36, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
Someone changed the timeline to a list, then someone changed it to a table. Good calls. Thanks MiShogun and Mthibault for that. Onepairofpants 03:07, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Alain Poher
Monsieur Poher isn't usually venerated as a true président de la République. If nobody's really against it I'll take his name off the list and put a note down below or something. As it is, he looks just as important as de Gaulle, d'Estaing or Mitterand. Any comments or suggestions ? Take a look at the French version to see how they do it, too. --Aquarelle 23:10, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
Your proposal is good to me, I think Poher's name should be put only in a note, as René Coty's one (he continued to act as a temporary head of state in 1958-1959 before De Gaulle were elected, see French version again). MFG, 23:49, 25 February 2007
