Navtable order: a chronology makes a lot more sense to me than using the "order of precedence". a chronological order makes the career clear at a glance of the reader. perhaps reverse chronology would be even better, as it is more likely to coincide with the "order of precedence".

Chronology makes more sense to me as well, for two reasons: You can follow the major parts of someone's career at a glance, and it is easier to create a chronological listing than to remember what the "order of preference" is. Steve Casburn 12:58, 4 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Okay, I see your points, BUT...It's a navtable, guiding people through all the holders of one office. If you just want to know what he or she did with his or her career, you can read the article. That said, there's so many trillions of different formats for these navtables that I've just given up trying to impose a uniform form on them. :) You do what you want on your pages, visa versa, and we'll all meet in the middle at an edit war. ;) jengod 23:47, Nov 10, 2004 (UTC)
