Talk:Tsar

From Conservapedia

This article should be renamed "Tsar", considering that is the much more correct transliteration of the Russian word «царь». - Thjazi 22:41, 1 April 2007 (EDT)

I think the article name should be czar because that is used more often in the U.S. than tsar.--AdrianP 02:30, 26 May 2007 (EDT)

Hold up for a bit while we sort out what to do, Jack. We already have separate articles on the Obama Czars, and were planning on consolidating them, and this space was being used as a redirect page, and really shouldn't have been used for this name.

It's not clear that it will, but if this page continues to exist, it should note that "czar" is not and never has been the official title of anyone in the executive branch of the U.S. government. The term is basically media shorthand used--since at least the Nixon Administration--to designate executive-brach officials with authority or expertise in some aspect of policy but no Cabinet post. This means that there is no way to state authoritatively that the Obama Administration has x number of czars. ChrisFV 13:59, 20 November 2009 (EST)
