Talk:List of longest reigning current monarchs

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Should delete Tonga monarch

One of the Andorran Co Princes is in the list...Should not the other be in as well?

The other one I think is the French president who doesn't hold the office for life. Kennelly 12:14, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Uganda

According to this [1] site, Henry Wako Muloki held office from 1955-1962 and then again only since 1995; so he hasn't been in office for 51 years, but only for 18 years together. Kennelly 09:25, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Government in Exile

Should Tenzin Gyatso be on this list? Does a deposed monarch count as a reigning monarch? --Mishalak 17:39, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Good question, I don't know. —Nightstallion (?) 02:36, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
A deposed monarch dosen't belong on the list. Why, because if he/she are deposed, they no longer reign (this articlee is for reigning monarchs). GoodDay 13:50, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
Maybe I should try to read before answering questions... I had totally forgotten that, yes. —Nightstallion (?) 20:36, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Independant Nation monarchs?

Did not some of the monarchs/rulers begin their respective reigns, under foreign powers? If so should this be stressed? GoodDay 02:20, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] traditional monarchies

Should traditional monarchies like Ashanti, Zulu, etc. be listed here? Their status seems rather different from that of actual heads of state. john k 10:21, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
