... that President Ieremia Tabai of Kiribati was elected in 1978, 1982, 1983, and 1987 despite a term limit of three elections?

Elections in Asia and the Pacific: A Data Handbook: Volume II: South East Asia, East Asia, and the South Pacific. Oxford University Press. p. 675. ISBN 9780191600012. "Before the presidential election a debate had open regarding Tabai's term of office, the question being whether he was running for his third or for his fourth term. The latter case would have been unconstitutional, since only three terms were possible. Finally, the High Court considered it to be Tabai's third term, as in 1978 he had been elected Chief Minister, and only in 1982 and 1983 President."

Comment: 5x expanded all four within the last week. I'm open to changing the hook's wording if there's a clearer way to say this.

5x expanded by Thebiguglyalien (talk). Number of QPQs required: 1. Nominator has 13 past nominations.

Articles have been expanded 5 times and they are long enough. I've GAN reviewed one of these articles, so I know that they're well-sourced, neutral, and without copyvio (though I did have a look at other articles and the criteria has been met for other articles too). Articles are presentable. Hook is cited to a reliable source and is interesting. I don't see an image here but Tabai's image is freely licensed and could be used. QPQ for all four articles has been completed. Looks good to me. Vacant0 (talk • contribs) 12:34, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
