Talk:Director of Central Intelligence

Duplicate entry?

What is the point of having this entry when there is another one that is virtually identical? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Director_of_the_Central_Intelligence_Agency) This one is actually out of date, as it does not have the latest Director information. (I'm aware of the new DNI post, but wouldn't it be sensible to now merge these two articles?) Jaycey 22:29, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for updating this. Jaycey 09:37, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Nonsense

How can the post have ceased to exist in 2005, but a new Director was appointed in 2009? Skinsmoke (talk) 14:52, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

For anyone reading this in the year 2025 – because the Director of Central Intelligence is not the same thing as the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency.

After 9/11, there was a lot of blame going around Washington. They decided to flip over the structure of the Intelligence Community – creating an entirely new office called the Director of National Intelligence, who effectively assumed the responsibilities of DCI.

Duplicate Helms

I guess I screwed up the formatting when I tried to fix it, but why are there identical entries for Richard Helms in the chart? Seems like a clear mistake. -R. fiend (talk) 15:29, 13 December 2018 (UTC)

Same as formatting for Dulles and Tenet, who also served under successive administrations, though Helms dates might need differentiation. I will tinker to attempt single entry; if it's possible, answer is probably here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Table#Combined_use_of_COLSPAN_and_ROWSPAN but no guarantee.
