Statue of Sir Rupert Hamer, former Victorian Premier

• ... that Premiers of Victoria get a bronze statue (example pictured) if they hold the office for more than 3,000 days? Source: https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2023/feb/19/a-bronze-north-face-jacket-daniel-andrews-sized-up-for-statue-after-3000-days-as-premier

Moved to mainspace by GMH Melbourne (talk). Self-nominated at 13:13, 9 October 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Premier of Victoria; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

• The article is new enough and long enough. QPQ doesn't yet apply to the nominator. The hook is cited with a citation from the article and interesting. No issues with image, perhaps link Rupert Hamer in the caption? The article is broadly of a decent quality but earwig noted a lot of overlap with this page which I would advise the nominator to look at. More detail can be seen here.

OK, apologies, I did not see that. No problems then. Llewee (talk) 06:24, 12 October 2023 (UTC)

Unilateral move

A recent discussion on separating the list of premiers of Victoria from this article ended in a consensus not to move. It appears the original submitter has unilaterally ignored this and created a separate article for the list anyway. Victoria is now inconsistent with all the other articles on premiers/CMs. I was a soft oppose in the move request, prepared to reconsider if the articles (emphasis on articles, plural) became too long and unwieldy. Most importantly, there needs to be consistency across all articles for state/territory heads of government. The fact the consensus has been immediately defied means that I would like to request the list be immediately restored to this article and a new discussion opened about whether to split all the lists of premiers/CMs. Axver (talk) 09:41, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

Support - list should be returned Totallynotarandomalt69 (talk) 09:48, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

• Oppose - five out of the nine users who contributed to the move discussion were in favour of the breaking out of a perpetually growing list. I chose to be bold, expand the article, and break out the list to List of premiers of Victoria. I suggest initiating a merge discussion about moving the list back in. ––– GMH Melbourne (talk) 22:40, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

  "I chose to be bold" ???

  The consensus was for now, no move - 7 users said oppose pretty clearly Totallynotarandomalt69 (talk) 23:15, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

• Comment - a request has been made to restore the article name. The move was clearly against the consensus. Nibraa (talk) 02:07, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
