Merger proposal

[edit]
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
The result of this discussion was to merge both articles and keep United Nations Secretary-General selection, 2016. Wykx (talk) 12:02, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I propose that United Nations Secretary-General election, 2016 be merged into United Nations Secretary-General selection, 2016. I think that the content in the election article can easily be explained in the context of selection, and the selection article is of a reasonable size that the merging of election will not cause any problems as far as article size or undue weight is concerned. And this one is more accurate and complete. --Wildcursive (talk) 23:03, 21 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

comment merging is fine as this was bigger, but the title is more consistent with "election." He is after ll elected (even non popular elections are call so)Lihaas (talk) 12:00, 21 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Christiana Figueres

[edit]

This media outlet suggests that Christiana Figueres withdrew her candidacy. It's in Spanish and Google Translate isn't the most reliable tool. Can a Spanish speaking user confirm it ? This is the article. --Killuminator (talk) 22:16, 31 August 2016 (UTC) The polls in the article seem to indicate this I done.Lihaas (talk) 12:01, 21 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

not the 9th to succeed

[edit]

Guterres is not "the ninth Secretary-General of the United Nations to succeed Ban Ki-moon". He was elected to succeed Ban Ki-moon as the ninth SG of the UN". --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 16:34, 11 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Srgjan Kerim candidacy

[edit]

At the time of this selection, North Macedonia was "FYROM" or "FYR Macedonia" within the UN. This was also how the candidacy was presented:
