Talk:Cabinet of Egypt

"Cabinet of Egypt" in Arabic

The idea of a government cabinet makes sense in English. This page translates the phrase into Arabic as الحكومة المركزية which is transliterated as al-Hukouma al-markaziyya, which translates into English as "The Central Government." However, the transliteration stated in the article is al-Hukouma al-Misriyya, which just means "The Egyptian government." So which one is it? Does anyone know how "the cabinet of Egypt" really translates into Arabic (and thus would give us a proper transliteration)? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Matthewabaird (talk • contribs) 06:21, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

I cut-and-pasted the name used in the Arabic article just now. Google translates it as something like 'central cabinet of Egypt' so it should be okay. Flatterworld (talk) 22:14, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

Current status of the cabinet

Just to explain, the government took down the official page for the Cabinet Ministers so I updated the names and ministry titles based on the news article which is why some are in parentheses. I don't know if the alternative names and spellings are what will appear in the official list or not, so for now I'm leaving both in place. Not all of the separate ministry web sites are working and/or updated yet. It should all setttle down later this week I expect. Flatterworld (talk) 22:09, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

The government does have http://www.cabinet.gov.eg/upload/news/docs/2223/cabinet[1].pdf from 6 March 2011, so I updated based on that as well. It doesn't contain everything. Flatterworld (talk) 23:06, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

The lsit on the government site has returned. Names of ministers reflect what's there. In parentheses are alternative spellings, based on media reports and/or the name used in the actual minister's website. Flatterworld (talk) 21:49, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

SCAF Collapse

At least at this point, the talk from Egypt is that Mohammed El Baradei would be forming a government and that the SCAF puppet definitely is rejected by the masses, who, at this point, are, with power, in the streets. So the current/last/top entry needs to be redacted to reflect this. 72.228.177.92 (talk) 23:09, 26 November 2011 (UTC)

Article on the Cabinet, but no list of the ministries?

Why would anyone create this article and not list the actual cabinets (eg Justice, Finance, Defense etc.) and their functions? MPA 17:11, 1 July 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by MPA (talk • contribs)

Current Cabinet List

The official minister list of the Qandil Cabinet can be found here: Cabinet of Ministers. Isn't it time to incorporate it into the article? -- megA (talk) 21:42, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

Vandalism

This page has been vandalised by deleting all the current ministers from the current cabinet table. It was restored to the last non-vandalised version. Amsguc (talk) 20:54, 8 December 2017 (UTC)
