Currency was never CFP Franc. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.67.118.1 ( talk) 12:37, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
This section having nothing to do with the fifth republic I deleted it. Mthibault 11:12, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
As many states use numbers to refer to different republic, it is important to state which state's fifth republic it is. While I don't know of another fifth republic, there are a number of first and second republics. It is worth keeping a consistent style throughout all the French republics, so it should be [[{state} {number} Republic]].

I tried working on the timeline in the Fifth Republic: Presidents section, but I can't quite get it to work right. The problems with it, as I see it are: its bad links (for Georges Pompidou and Valery Giscard d'Estaing), it's unreadable (light blue on blue?), and Mitterrand's block is red for no apparent reason. Onepairofpants 04:12, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
Someone changed the timeline to a list, then someone changed it to a table. Good calls. Thanks MiShogun and Mthibault for that. Onepairofpants 03:07, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
Monsieur Poher isn't usually venerated as a true président de la République. If nobody's really against it I'll take his name off the list and put a note down below or something. As it is, he looks just as important as de Gaulle, d'Estaing or Mitterand. Any comments or suggestions ? Take a look at the French version to see how they do it, too. -- Aquarelle 23:10, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
Your proposal is good to me, I think Poher's name should be put only in a note, as René Coty's one (he continued to act as a temporary head of state in 1958-1959 before De Gaulle were elected, see French version again). MFG, 23:49, 25 February 2007
To Fifth French Republic (I am proposing this change for all French Republic articles.)
Fifth French Republic is a more precise translation of Cinquième République Française. The official name of the country is the French Republic, and it is the fifth one. Funnyhat 07:02, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
Since this discussion has been open for 6 months, and the majority of opinion is against the proposal, I think it's safe to declare consensus doesn't exist for merge at this time. JEdgarFreeman ( talk) 10:32, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
This article does not have any useful information, and having two separate articles for " French Fifth Republic" and " France" is completely useless. -- Fixman( Praise me) 00:45, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
See Talk:French_constitutional_referendum, 1958. Our 79.2% percentage does not fit any of the meaningful percentages one can compute from the official data. David.Monniaux ( talk) 00:03, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
I have found a figure of 85.14% from a reliable source, "Government and Politics of France" a book by Anne Stevens. The same source gives turn-out as 80.49%. I cannot from these figures see where the figure of 79.2% has come from, and am going to change in on the original page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.67.169.115 ( talk) 20:06, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
This article should probably be brought inline with the formatting of the other republic articles in the series. I've copied the template over, but unfortunately the country template doesn't seem to offer support for linkages to former incarnations. Other tweaks are also necessary. -- Belg4mit ( talk) 17:26, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

Is France still a republic? I doubt it. I recon all of France has been under foreign occupation again since about the time of the Millenium. That would make Jaques Chiraq the final president of the fifth republic. Ps. not sure if its the NAZIs this time!

This title must have been written by a non-native English speaker. The order of adjectives requires it to be the Fifth French Republic. 2600:1702:6D0:5160:6CEA:6F40:FC58:A459 ( talk) 16:22, 30 April 2023 (UTC)
Ignore This. Misread what it said. 2601:541:480:EDA0:F31B:73F6:925D:193A ( talk) 15:35, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
This artiche should be merged with France and Government of France.
None of the other countries have a separate article for the current regime. For example, after the Taliban takeover Afghanistan's regime became Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, but it just redirects to Afghanistan.
There was a previous merge discussion 14 years ago (see #Proposed Merge), with some editors opposing because this article is supposed to be about the government or politics, but there are already separate articles Government of France and Politics of France. Vpab15 ( talk) 20:50, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
So, the English Wikipedia has articles entitled First and Second French Empire. Number, then nationality - which is proper according to the rules of adjectival order in English.
This is not a matter of empires vs. republics, as we also have articles on the First and Second Spanish Republics.
Yet we persist with this inaccurate and inconsistent "nationality, then number" rule for the French Republics. I'm going to assume that a non-native English speaker made the innocent mistake of writing "French First Republic" (and continued from there) in the beginning ... but do not understand why we insist on perpetuating this mistake.
But then, we spent two decades displaying the wrong flag of Austria-Hungary, so I guess we're a stubborn bunch? 2600:1702:6D0:5160:D9B3:92CC:9790:303E ( talk) 20:49, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
