This article (as written) seems very focused on places where parliamentary systems are dominant. It seems as though the federal government of the United States is formed every four-to-eight years (depending on whether the Republicans or Democrats win. I have to believe we're not the only ones that rely on a non-parliamentary system, no? -- RobLa (talk) 01:13, 21 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Government formation is specifically a function of systems that have fusion of powers such as most parliamentary systems, where the term "government" refers specifically to the executive. In the U.S. and other systems with separation of powers, the term "government" refers to the entirety of all branches, and government formation is neither a term or a concept that is used. See Executive (government). Antony–22 (talkcontribs) 01:59, 21 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
Would it be possible to rename this page Parliamentary government formation? -- RobLa (talk) 04:26, 21 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
Government formation doesn't exist in non-parliamentary systems, so no disambiguation is needed. Antony–22 (talkcontribs) 05:48, 30 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
