Just to be clear, I am reverting any changes made to the family section that don't provide sources (sources that actually support whatever is stated in the article text). Some people (or maybe just one person?) are disputing who is Bongo's current wife and want to add names of his children. The article currently has a source (a highly reputable source, Le Monde) identifying one of the women in question as an ex-wife and the other as his current wife. I am not arguing the facts of the matter, except to say that we must rely on sources and not on the say-so of editors. Everyking ( talk) 10:48, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
As the current President Bongo’s administration is a continuation of the rule of the previous President Bongo, would it be accurate to refer to the current government as the Bongo-Bongo government? 213.205.240.16 ( talk) 13:08, 24 February 2021 (UTC)

Is there a standard as to what the term "President" means? If your father is the "President" for his whole life and then you become the "President", then that seems more correctly called a "King" or some other term related to hereditary rule. Has the wikipedia established rules on the use of language and what terms should be applied here? Jeff Carr ( talk) 17:53, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
