By analogy with King of England, etc, the list is at Kings of Cambodia, and King of Cambodia links there. Noel 15:06, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Why did you move Kings of Cambodia to King of Cambodia, after I had explicitly pointed out on Talk:Kings of Cambodia that Wikipedia precedent was to use the form "Kings of X" (or "List of Kings of X")? Look at Category:Lists of office-holders - there's only one, in that whole list, of the form "King of X". Noel 16:04, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC)

There is no such precendent. By creating a redirect at King of Cambodia you discourage people from writing a comprehensive article on the office, in addition to the list. The current policy is to use singular unless it's in the form of "List of Kings...". There are articles at President of the United States and Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, not Presidents of the United States or Prime Ministers of the United Kingdom. ---Jiang 03:36, 29 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Shouldn't this be "List of Kings..." because it is merely a list? I believe (stop me if I'm wrong) that unless it is specifically a list there should be descriptive information on the subject, in this case Kings of Cambodia. Super Jedi Droid 00:01, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] I don't understand...

who was the Head of State from 20 november 1991 to 14 june 1993, the Chairmen of the Council of State or the Chairman of the Supreme National Council? The whole idea of this kind of list is giving only the name of the one Head of State for a single period of time, and we have three different names under two different titles here... --Damifb (talk) 12:04, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
