This disambiguation page has been mentioned by a media organization:

Matt Novak (20 October 2022). "Wikipedia Tells Users to Be More Specific When Searching '2022 UK Government Crisis'". Gizmodo. Wikipedia editors have added a new landing page that asks readers to be more specific if they're searching for the "2022 United Kingdom government crisis." And it speaks to just how poorly things went for conservative Prime Minister Liz Truss, who resigned her post Thursday.

Crisis

I think it is adequately clear what the crisis is around and putting in the mass resignation is unecessary. Catholic nerd (talk) 00:15, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

September 2022 United Kingdom mini-budget

Let's reach a consensus regarding whether or not to include the September 2022 United Kingdom mini-budget on this page, as there seems to be an edit war brewing. I personally think it should be included, because it was a crisis involving the Truss government in and of itself, and it explains the relationship between the July and October crises. Carguychris (talk) 21:41, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. Right now it's changing faster than the Tory front bench. For my part, I say we should include the mini-budget, because although it's clearly connected to the current crisis, it is in fact its own event with its own narrative and context, and it was unambiguously a crisis. GenevieveDEon (talk) 21:56, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree. It's part of the current crisis, and indeed precipitated it (even the UK can't have two crises in under four weeks). Furthermore, this is a disambiguation page, so we should only be including pages where the title actually needs to be disambiguated for a searcher; this isn't a list page or an article, so explaining the relationship between the two crises isn't appropriate here. Espatie (talk) 00:11, 21 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed - include. The mini-budget was clearly a crisis in its own right, and as it has a page to itself then it belongs here as one of the things that "2022_United_Kingdom_government_crisis" could be referring to MrStoofer (talk) 07:41, 21 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Include. It was a crisis of the United Kingdom government that happened in 2022 so it should be included on this page. If we need to make this a list or set index rather than disambiguation page to include it then make it one - what matters is what is most helpful to readers and I was surprised to see it missing. Thryduulf (talk) 10:06, 21 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree. The budget was not a crisis in itself, although it did directly lead to the October one. Bazonka (talk) 12:19, 21 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
