Merits of article
[edit]The Paul Keating article is very bare. Not much in it. Surprisingly, very little content has been added to the Paul Keating article, with very few references. Therefore, I wonder if the time is right (or not) to split the article into separate articles about the man and his government. The Paul Keating article already has subsections about his government years, with virtually nothing there. Would it not be better to fill those sections up before creating the second article? --Lester 21:03, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
- I disagree (obviously). I see merits in each and every case in separating the prime minister from his government's actions. Obviously each Government is dominated by the PM but there are many examples where it would be wrong to attribute the actions of the Government (a collective) just to the PM or even to a single minister.--Matilda talk 22:09, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
Expansion to include Hawke PMship
[edit]The Hawke and Keating government had a whole lot more in common than compared to what wasn't in common. Further, when put into the context of the preceding Fraser and subsequent Howard governments, this similarity is even more evident. Further, by keeping them separate we are actually insinuating that the differences were similar than say the differences between Hawke and Fraser and/or Keating-Howard years. Thus, I suggest this article scope be expanded to include the Hawke years. Indeed, it's not an expansion but a fundamental filling of a hole. The other reason is more practical in that we just don't have the info at the moment for two separate articles. Perhaps this can be revisited when length is actually an issue.
Of course, the existence of the Govt articles in addition to the PM articles should not be dependent on content quality. THey are separate issues. --Merbabu (talk) 05:59, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
Time to separate
[edit]These articles should now be separated into separate articles for Hawke and Keating to bring them into line with all other PM articles. Ozhistory (talk) 05:00, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
Orphaned references in Keating Government
[edit]I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Keating Government's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "ReferenceA":
- From Hawke-Keating Government: The Australian welfare state: key documents and themes by Jane Thomson and Anthony McMahon
- From Southern United States: Table 1. Type of Ancestry Response for Regions, Divisions and States: 1980
- From British Empire: Lloyd, p. 335.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 16:12, 29 March 2012 (UTC)

Merge proposal
[edit]Support the 2018 proposal to merge the Hawke–Keating Government article into the Keating Government and Hawke Government as doesn't seem to be sufficient justification for keeping them separate. Having a long-standing treasurer become the immediately following prime minister has happened before and will happen again; the suppressed tensions between them might be joint theme, but that can be discussed on the relevant government page. A subsequent UK example is Premiership of Tony Blair and Premiership of Gordon Brown, each of which has distinct pages without a joint one. Klbrain (talk) 08:15, 26 May 2019 (UTC)
- Looking again at this, it seems very hard to find unique content; I suggest that it's better to work on the individual government articles. Klbrain (talk) 05:35, 17 September 2019 (UTC)

I'm also wondering how this should be structured, as there seems to be a lot of duplication. I T B F 💬 06:43, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
