Cabinets of Weimar Germany (#14 of 20)
The purpose of the updates is to:
Standardize info boxes.
- Time in office includes caretaker period after formal resignation.
- Not all of the parties that weren't in the ruling coalition are listed as opposition – some 'tolerated' the government (esp. the SPD), or there isn't enough information on them to make a judgment if they were in active opposition or not. In that case I left them out.
Standardize tables of cabinet members ('Portfolio' is the office, not the office holder. I kept them simple, without repeating 'Ministry of…')
Expand introductory paragraphs to summarize the whole article.
Include at least minimal information on the cabinet's actions while in office.
Eliminate overuse of German words and phrases (notably 'Reich' = German / Germany).
Standardize capitalization of 'minister' (see MOS biographyPositions, offices, and occupational titles section) and ministry names (see MOS Capital lettersInstitutions section).
