This template is intended to be used for a variety of official posts. It is not meant only for “political offices” per se, but can also be used for civil service, diplomatic, ecclesiastical, judicial, law enforcement, military and other posts of an official and permanent nature. 

Note that the template is intended to be primarily about the '''post''' rather than the ''person'' holding it for the moment.
