– Per WP:CONSISTENT. There seems to be an arbitrary switching between "ministers-president" and "minister-presidents" on here. For instance, compare the above examples to these:

According to Wikipedia's own article on the topic, both versions are acceptable as the plural form. That said, the actual German word Ministerpräsident is pluralized as Ministerpräsidenten, suggesting that "minister-presidents" is at least spiritually the closer translation (that said, I'm not a German speaker). Ultimately, I'm less concerned over which version is better, and more concerned that we reach a consensus for the sake of consistency. Woko Sapien (talk) 18:21, 13 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Support for consistency. I support minister-presidents or ministers-president, as long as it's the same. The term with more popularity seems to be "minister-presidents", and if that's also more similar to the German word, we should go with it. Feeglgeef (talk) 03:13, 15 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
