Template talk:Current New Zealand political party leaders

Untitled

I've just created this template today based on Template talk:New Zealand political parties. I'm not sure whether it's particularly useful, I just felt having the main party leaders grouped together like this would be helpful for readers wanting to learn more about the people behind NZ politics.

The idea is just to link the main leaders/co-leaders and their parties in brackets, keeping it up to date as things change. Feel free to propose any changes here. Richard001 05:27, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Should the title of it be changed to 'Current New Zealand Parliamentary party leaders' - as you can't say that United Future, ACT, Maori or Progressives are more 'major' than say New Zealand First which polls higher than all those parties. The thing that gets them on this list and which stops NZF is that they are Parliamentary while NZF isn't.

Template name

@Muboshgu: Sorry, but I had to revert your move. You cite MOS:CURRENTLY but I cannot agree with this interpretation. Firstly, that MOS entry is written for prose and not article (or template) names. Secondly, and maybe more importantly, the MOS entry starts as follows: "Except on pages updated regularly, ..." And that is exactly what you can expect to happen with this template. When there's a change in party leadership, I guarantee you that you have to be very quick if you want to update the name as chances are that somebody else will have beaten you to it. Another problem with the move was that this template does not list all New Zealand political party leaders but just the current ones. Would you like to respond to this feedback before I revert your other template moves that all have similar problems? Schwede66 18:48, 18 March 2019 (UTC)
