Antipope[edit]

Now, he is Libya's Antipope Alexander V, as his unity government was rejected by the internationally recognized government in Tobruk and the rival government in Tripoli. --Norden1990 (talk) 12:24, 21 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Designate ?[edit]

Hi @Sundostund, Therequiembellishere, and Cordyceps-Zombie: Sarraj is not designate. He took office on 12 march and went to Tarabulus on 30 march. On 31 march, Al Ghowel left the city. --Panam2014 (talk) 14:58, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Panam2014: Do you have a reliable source to support that? - ^theWOLFchild 17:03, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Sundostund, Therequiembellishere, Cordyceps-Zombie, and Thewolfchild: [1]. --Panam2014 (talk) 18:04, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As per that source; "Since Libya’s airspace had been closed by the existing Tripoli-based authorities, the prime minister designate, Fayez Sarraj, and seven members of the presidential council travelled from Tunisia by sea to the city’s Abusita naval base.". (bolding mine) And that is a source you provided. - ^theWOLFchild 18:10, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Agree with "The Wolf Child" on this one - Fayaz al Sarraj is the de jure Chairman of the Presidential Council but not de jure prime minister of Libya yet as this requires a vote of confidence by the House of Representatives, which has not happened yet. Designate would be an appropriate term to use in regards to PM. Cordyceps-Zombie (talk) 18:31, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Starting form 2014 not 2011 Libya started to become split into east & west with parallel institutions (government, legislature, army,...etc) in both. To say the opposite is as outrageously wrong as saying that Libya is situated in Asia. When conflict and edit war arise, the burden of proof of obvious facts should not be on the editor who advocates them, rather a third neutral party should verify. Let Wikipedia be full of errors --and it actually is, if it is governed by bad principles or worse corrupted admins. احمد الليبي (talk) 10:04, 11 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

      OK, the issue has been corrected sometime between March 2016 --when I was in edit war with Thewolfchild about it-- and now. Back in 2016 eventually Wikipedia adopted the wrong opinion of Thewolfchild. Opinions are like ASS HOLES احمد الليبي (talk) 10:35, 11 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sarraj didn't vacate office on February 5[edit]

The typical Wikipedia mistake: Unverified precipitation, confusing election date and inauguration date. Mohamed al-Menfi has not taken over yet. On March 10, Fayez al-Sarraj is still chairing the Presidential Council.--Zarateman (talk) 10:05, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
