Nayef edit

An anonymous user has added Prince Nayef. This is erroneous, as it was announced that Nayef will become First Deputy PM, not PM. I am reverting the edit.Ibadibam (talk) 08:17, 28 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

Definition edit

Doesn't Prime Minister mean "first minister (i.e., advisor, official, aide, servant) to the head of state"? In other words, how can the king be his own first minister?!? Is there any other country in the world where this is the case?HenryLarsen (talk) 09:21, 23 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

It means the minister is first among equals. I can't think of a cause where it is the exact same, but the UAE is similar. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 10:48, 23 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
Prime does usually mean the minister is first among equals, at least with respect to the other ministers of government, but that concept doesn't appear in the Saudi Basic Law, and a king is hardly equal to a commoner. HenryLarsen is right that the word minister, in its Romance roots, originally referred to an assistant or servant, so there's some dissonance in a purely etymological context. But given the history of the position in the KSA, where the position was once separate, it makes sense. I think this is sufficiently explained in the article's "History" section, and there's no need to emphasize the verbal irony of the title. Ibadibam (talk) 19:19, 24 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

Article is speculative edit

This article is mostly reliant on speculations and not official designations of the prime minister position. The prime minister position is an official position, and the holder of that position should be listed correctly regardless of who the de facto head of government is.

It's also useful information to also include the position of Vice-PM as well. High surv (talk) 21:58, 8 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
