Russia

[edit]

Even though Biden is keeping on the Trump appointee John Sullivan, shouldn't Russia be listed in the table at least?

Color change

[edit]

Hey so at first glance the nominees who have been highlighted red looks like their nominations were rejected since red has that connotation. I feel that the color for "Confirmed appointees who are Career Members of the Senior Executive Service" should be one of a more positive/less confusing color like blue or gold since red has been used in Joe Biden's political appointees as officials whose nomination was rejected by the senate. --TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 08:54, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that pink is confusing. Gold seems to be used in other appointment lists for acting appointees though. White is apparently is used in the Trump ambassador list for Senior Foreign Service appointees, but is also confusing as it denotes appointees who do not require senate confirmation in other Biden appointment lists. A related issue: currently the appointees in pink are all Senior Foreign Service, instead of Senior Executive Service as described in the color key. However, the only SES appointee confirmed (Ostfield) is in green. So two new color schemes are actually needed, one for SES and one for SFS. --Sierra1000 (talk) 10:52, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Just an observation: recent State Department official portraits seem to have a blue background, so it may need to be light blue. --Sierra1000 (talk) 13:51, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

List of United States Ambassadors appointed by Joe BidenList of United States ambassadors appointed by Joe Biden – Per MOS:JOBTITLES, here 'ambassadors' acts as the name of an office, not as a title, so it should not be capitalized. Frenzie23 (talk) 14:03, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps "United States" is not needed in the title, but "List of" most certainly is, as this is clearly a list-class article. Rreagan007 (talk) 22:32, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
PS:Per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (lists), they are conventionally formatted "List of X" but this is not mandatory. It would be more concise without it and plural "ambassadors" clearly indicates that it is a list.Cinderella157 (talk) 00:24, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
All list article titles would be more concise without the standard "List of" formatting. That's not a good argument against using it. Rreagan007 (talk) 00:56, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
