Add party

Colour is approximate. From: [1]. Colour is the one used for background of the banners [2] and wall plaques [3] rather than the logo. Also I'm not a native English speaker so I'm not shure if it shouldn't be "United Peoples' Party" instead of "United People's Party". Chears! — Antoni12345 ( talk) 19:35, 27 January 2024 (UTC) reply

the shortname for the Finnish Green Party, "VIHR" should be changed to the plain, English "Greens", or alternatively, the Green League, as the shortname is simply a shorthand for the color in Finnish. Wikipedia doesn't refer to the German greens as "Grüne" in the infoboxes, so why should the Finnish Greens be any different?

"VIHR" looks strange and it seems to be directly copied from Finnish language articles, that simply shorten political parties' names. They do this to every other Finnish political party, with shortnames like "kok." "sd." and "ps." to refer to the National Coalition, the Social Democrats, and the Finns Party. However, in English Wikipedia, these are correctly named with their proper English translation, with the exception of the Green Party's "VIHR". I say this should be corrected.

Czech Political Parties I would like to request changes to several Czech or Czechoslovak parties.

Senator 21 changed its name to SEN 21 and its color to #1a4973 shown here

The Left (Czech Republic) changed its color slightly to #d70e44 can be find here

German National Party color should be #75781A

Slovak National Party (historical) should be #214F15

German Liberal Party (Czechoslovakia) should be #23B68A

Hungarian National Party (Czechoslovakia) should be #23B68

United Jewish Parties (Czechoslovakia) were translated incorrectly and should be called Associated Jewish Parties (Czechoslovakia). "Sdružené" in original is closer to Associated then to United (which would be "Sjednocené"). Their color should be #291CE8

Party of Smallholders, Cottiers and Entrepreneurs of Czechoslovakia is translated incorrectly ("domkař" is a homeowner, cottier would be "chalupář") so it should be renamed to Party of Smallholders, Homeowners and Entrepreneurs of Czechoslovakia — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kroulacek ( talk • contribs) 17:17, 25 February 2024 (UTC) reply

@ Kroulacek: Where are you getting the colors for the 6 historic parties? SilverLocust 💬 09:12, 27 February 2024 (UTC) reply

For the historical parties, the colors are those currently used on the Czech version of Wikipedia, as well as in parliamentary diagrams and maps in articles like 1920 Czechoslovak parliamentary election. I belive it would be easier to change the color in the module then to change all the diagrams and maps. The colors don't have any particular source, and are more of customary colors used in Czechia for the parties.

For SEN 21, I add links to their Instagram and Facebook, where the new darker blue is being used exlusively. For the website, I belive they've not updated it yet and will update it with the start of the campaign for the EP elections. Kroulacek ( talk) 10:57, 3 March 2024 (UTC) reply

• SEN 21 —  Partly done: I have changed the name, but the current color is still one of the colors listed at that link, and it is still used on the party's website. There are also images that use the current color. I think it should be kept as it is for now.
• The Left (Czech Republic) —  Done.
• German National Party —  Done (so that the color matches the images in 1920 Czechoslovak parliamentary election, et seq.).
• Slovak National Party (historical) —  Done (same reason).
• Associated Jewish Parties (Czechoslovakia) —  Not done: You have already fixed the name in the one article where it appears, 1920 Czechoslovak parliamentary election. There is no entry in these modules for this minor historical party.
• Party of Smallholders, Homeowners and Entrepreneurs of Czechoslovakia —  Not done: The name can be changed in the articles, as you have already done for the 1920 election. I assume that change would also apply to the slightly different name in the 1925 election article. There is no entry in these modules for this minor historical party.
• German Liberal Party (Czechoslovakia) —  Not done: I don't see this mentioned in any article, so I don't see a reason for this. There is no entry in these modules for this minor hitorical party.
• Hungarian National Party (Czechoslovakia) —  Not done for now: Please give some reason for changing the color.

I challenge the current 'abbreviation' of Direction – Social Democracy SMER–SD. First, SMER–SD does not fulfill the essence of the acronym. SMER should not be written in capital letters, because they are not initial letters of words in a phrase, but actually is a single word in the Slovak language (Direction).

Secondly, the dash, which in the abbreviation SMER–SD is supposed to fulfill the function of connecting with the epithet 'Social Democracy' brings confusion because it creates the appearance of connecting two acronyms. To give an example, when you want to list the current ruling coalition in Slovakia with this abbreviation, it would have to be SMER–SD–HLAS–SD–SNS, which creates the impression that the coalition consists of 5 entities and is graphically unclear and inconsistent.

I propose the following solution to this problem: remove the current abbreviation and introduce the shortname 'Smer'.

This shortname complies with customs and is both content and graphically consistent.

I add other examples to confirm: Fidesz – Hungarian Civic Alliance (Fidesz – Magyar Polgári Szötségé) uses the abbreviation Fidesz, not the shortname-acronym Fidesz–MPS. Just like the Latvian Social Democratic Party "Harmony" (Sociālmokratiskā partija "Saskaņa") does not use something like SDP SASKAŅA or SDP–SASKAŅA, but simply just the short name 'Harmony'. If we look at the common abbreviation used in Slovak and also in the international press, there is no consensus reached, we can find SMER–SD, Smer–SD, and finally Smer.

In addition: this political party was founded in 1999 as Direction (Smer) and adopted the epithet 'Social Democracy' only in 2005, so if the abbreviation SMER–SD is used for the elections from 1999 until 2005, it is not correct. 90.64.70.228 ( talk) 12:13, 2 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Request for changing the name from Majlis Bachao Tahreek to Majlis Bachao Tehreek on the party module list to maintain consistency. This change involves replacing a with e in the word Tahreek. It seems that the article was moved on Wikipedia a while ago, and this inconsistency is causing issues with the short name in the election tables. 456legend talk 07:28, 4 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Diff:

— Antoni12345 ( talk) 23:08, 4 March 2024 (UTC) reply

To editor Antoni12345: first of all, color hexcodes are six digits in length, so I wonder where the eight-digit code you propose comes from. I did not find it at the "scan" link you gave. I may have missed it, so please focus me to where in that document I can find the code. There is a fairly substantial difference between the existing color:

•   #54A405, and your proposed color:
•   #7dad0b (the hex reader only reads the first six digits, so the "ff" is not necessary)

so more info is needed before a change can be made to Module:Political party/P, which btw is not template-protected. Thank you for your help! P.I. Ellsworth ,  ed.  ^{put'er there} 14:49, 6 March 2024 (UTC) reply

@ Paine Ellsworth: Ok! Thanks for feedback. The link I’ve provided under the “scan” is an item site at the Biała Podlaska digital library website, where the scan of the mentioned flyer can be found. After downloading it I’ve extracted the approximate colour using Inkscape tool. The scan is a raster image of a print with uneven colour distribution, so different colours may be found. Maybe I have wrongly used the Inkscape tool. As I’ve mentioned the electoral flyer is the only reference for the party colour available in the Internet, so also the question is what’s the reference for the currently used colour. — Antoni12345 ( talk) 18:14, 6 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Make "Nonpartisan" as an input generate a disambiguated link to Nonpartisanism. Make it so that (in the electionbox) it reads as "nonpartisan" lowercase.

Do the same automatically for when someone inputs "Nonpartisan candidate", "nonpartisan candidate", and "nonpartisan".

SecretName101 ( talk) 19:04, 5 March 2024 (UTC) reply

I would greatly prefer for it to link to Independent politician, which is where Nonpartisan politician redirects. Nonpartisanism is not a very good article.

I am opposed to making it lowercase. Labels in infoboxes and rows in tables generally have their first letter capitalized. E.g., "Party", "Votes", "Candidate", etc. That's also how "Independent" is done.

On a side note, this edit would be to Module:Political party/P, which only has extended-confirmed protection. SilverLocust 💬 09:46, 6 March 2024 (UTC) reply

@ SilverLocust Issue is that a lot of times this is used, it's in elections in which party affiliations are unable to be listed on the ballot (such as Chicago mayoral elections since 1999). Many of the nominees who run in such elections are well-affiliated with parties, just are listed on a nonpartisan ballot. SecretName101 ( talk) 23:31, 6 March 2024 (UTC) reply

@ SilverLocust An good alternative is (if possible), instead having it generate a grey color indicator but having the text generated contain no link to any page. SecretName101 ( talk) 23:33, 6 March 2024 (UTC) reply

@ SecretName101: If the whole race is nonpartisan, there is the option of using Template:Election box candidate no party to not show a column for party. 1999 Chicago mayoral election (and so forth) shows those links because it uses "with party" in the rows.

But if only some candidates are nonpartisan, then the "Nonpartisan" link should be included. 2016 San Diego elections is an example that includes some party-affiliated candidates and some nonpartisan candidates using party = Nonpartisan politician, which is a redirect to Independent politician via the link [[Nonpartisan politician|Nonpartisan]]. (It works the same for "candidate".)

How about making "Nonpartisan election" be another option that links [[Nonpartisan election|Nonpartisan]], since that title redirects to Non-partisan democracy, the article about nonpartisan elections. SilverLocust 💬 01:38, 7 March 2024 (UTC) reply

@ SilverLocust But we have countless instances where elections with nonpartisan elections were done with partylinks, hence this will appear on each of them.

unless you plan on going to every election page and changing election boxes where that is the case, hundreds or even thousands of nonpartisan races will be having their election boxes impacted

I think for now we don’t include an link for “nonpartisan”, but we DO link “nonpartisan candidate” to thaw page of the same name and “nonpartisan election” to the page of that name. SecretName101 ( talk) 04:32, 7 March 2024 (UTC) reply

No, my suggested change to the module doesn't affect any existing electionbox because none of them currently use party = Nonpartisan election, since that doesn't currently shorten to "Nonpartisan". (I have also confirmed that none use that by searching insource:/[Pp]arty\s*\=\s*[Nn]onpartisan election/.) And the suggested change is only as an option beyond the existing options that I noted (among others). SilverLocust 💬 04:54, 7 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Description of suggested change: Addition of "Reformer" as a shortname for Whigs (British political party) with color #FF7F00.

The shortname "Reformer" is used on these pages ( 1835 Liverpool Town Council election, 1836 Liverpool Town Council election, 1839 Liverpool Town Council election, 1840 Liverpool Town Council election, 1841 Liverpool Town Council election, Abercromby (Liverpool ward)) to refer to Whigs (British political party), but the shortname currently links to a disambiguation page. Please can this shortname be added, so that the links to the disambiguation page can be removed? BlueberryIntoTheWild ( talk) 23:56, 11 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Great, thanks @ MSGJ, and yes - please can the plural be added as well? BlueberryIntoTheWild ( talk) 00:27, 18 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Please can you describe the exact change needed to the code because I'm not familiar with this module. I notice on 1841 Liverpool Town Council election#Abercromby the term "Reformer" is used, but it is still linking to the disambiguation page. So the change I made does not seem to have had the desired effect — Martin ( MSGJ ·  talk) 19:16, 18 March 2024 (UTC) reply

I think adding ["Whigs (British political party)"] = {abbrev = "", color = "#FF7F00", shortname = "Reformer",}, and ["Whigs (British political party)"] = {abbrev = "", color = "#FF7F00", shortname = "Reformers",}, to this page should produce the desired outcome. BlueberryIntoTheWild ( talk) 19:23, 18 March 2024 (UTC) reply

You can't have two entries with the same value (in this case "Whigs (British political party)"). This is just a quick "please don't do this", I'll try and figure out what you're attempting to do shortly. Primefac ( talk) 20:05, 18 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Okay, the reason why it's linking to a dab is because {{ Election box candidate with party link}} links to the party given to the template, not to whatever it is you think you're linking to -- it links to [[{{{party}}}|<shortname>]] where <shortname> is provided by the module. In other words, if you want to link to the Whigs, you need to set |party=Whigs (British political party), which will then output Reformer while linking to Whigs (British political party). Primefac ( talk) 20:17, 18 March 2024 (UTC) reply

In other words, the template calls in the articles are wrong, not the module. Primefac ( talk) 20:21, 18 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Thanks for looking into this @ Primefac, I've set |party=Whigs (British political party) but it still outputs Whig rather than Reformer - I feel like I might be being stupid here! Thanks BlueberryIntoTheWild ( talk) 23:27, 18 March 2024 (UTC) reply

We currently have

	["Whig Party (British political party)"] = {abbrev = "", color = "#819FF7", shortname = "Whig",},
	["Whig Party (US)"] = {abbrev = "W", color = "#F0C862", shortname = "Whig",},
	["Whigs (British political party)"] = {abbrev = "", color = "#FF7F00", shortname = "Whig",},

Should one of those Whig values for the UK show something else for the shortname? Primefac ( talk) 07:37, 19 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Changing ["Whigs (British political party)"] = {abbrev = "", color = "#FF7F00", shortname = "Whig",}, to ["Whigs (British political party)"] = {abbrev = "", color = "#FF7F00", shortname = "Reformer",}, would solve the Reformer shortname issue, but I'm concerned it might affect other articles which currently use the Whig shortname. BlueberryIntoTheWild ( talk) 13:39, 19 March 2024 (UTC) reply

You need to be clearer about what exactly you are expecting to see. When you use "Reformer" you want the link to point to Whigs (British political party) but how should it be piped? — Martin ( MSGJ ·  talk) 13:42, 19 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Sorry for not being clearer, I'm expecting to link to Whigs (British political party) but to pipe it as "Reformer".

@ Primefac clarified the desired outcome above:

In other words, if you want to link to the Whigs, you need to set |party=Whigs (British political party), which will then output Reformer while linking to Whigs (British political party).

In order to do so, ["Whigs (British political party)"] = {abbrev = "", color = "#FF7F00", shortname = "Whig",}, would need to be changed to ["Whigs (British political party)"] = {abbrev = "", color = "#FF7F00", shortname = "Reformer",}, but I'm concerned it might affect other articles which currently use the Whig shortname and want to pipe it as "Whig". BlueberryIntoTheWild ( talk) 14:01, 19 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Okay, let's back up a step and talk less code. Why are the Whigs called by two different names? Are there actually two different groups? Are they just called different names depending on what they called themselves? Are there any time periods where one name was used more than the other? There's no point in futzing about with the code until we can actually determine what should be done visually. Primefac ( talk) 15:49, 19 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Description of suggested change: The German party Human Environment Animal Protection recently changed their colour from #87CEFA (current) to #00545F (new).
Additionally, The Homeland also changed its colour in 2023 with the renaming from brown (current) to #D79E2A (new). However this change might be more controversial as brown, the currently displayed customary colour, was applied by outsiders instead of the party itself so we might want to wait if this is still the case. German Wikipedia does use the party's new preferred colour, but we might want to wait for what official diagrams and news outlets use.

Just not true, they are usually represented with the blue that is present. Their logo has that color. MrMkG ( talk) 05:15, 29 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Blue is used to represent INC. But they are not same. Jack deGrasse Tyson ( talk) 09:05, 29 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Why are we using maroon for the People's Alliance? The logo is dark blue, maroon and white and it seems that the party campaigns in both dark blue and maroon. I think maybe we could use dark blue as it represents conservatism (the only problem being that the Social Democratic Liberal Party, another conservative party, uses a shade of blue, and the centrist FijiFirst party uses a light shade of blue). Red in Fiji represents the Fiji Labour Party and dark green represents the National Federation Party. Schestos ( talk) 23:00, 30 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Can you please add the party color for the Lëvizja Bashkë political party in Albania? The hex value extracted from the logo of their website is #E82D36. The abbreviation is BASHKE, taken from the Albanian elections results website (in the Results for Council tab).

["Lëvizja Bashkë"] = {abbrev = "BASHKE", color = "#E82D36", shortname = "",}

Could anyone please rename “Thawbit Al-Ummah” into their English name “Ummah’s Principles Alliance” with their current color code unchanged. Also make could anyone set their short name into Thawbit Al-Ummah. Thanks in advance! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tawtheeeq ( talk • contribs) 20:49, 13 April 2024 (UTC) reply

No longer necessary as article renamed. Number 5 7 16:58, 15 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Law and Justice (Poland) is no longer the only political party with that name, breaking the party colour dependence on every election page that uses it. Please update Template:Party color to match the new name of the article and add Law and Justice (Croatia)'s party colour and name to the template. Thanks in advance.

@ CanonNi Apologies, but for backwards compatibility, would you be able to add back "Law and Justice" as an alternate/backup link to the Template:Party color colour for Law and Justice (Poland)? Since it seems like replacing the original name entirely within the template instead of adding it as another link to the same hex has broken some other dependencies, such as on the party's wikipage that still uses the old article name for the template. I hope I've explained that well enough, I'm not too familiar with Template editing to be honest. GlowstoneUnknown ( talk) 05:41, 14 April 2024 (UTC) reply

 Done I've added Law and Justice as the short name for the party, let me know if it works. '''[[ User:CanonNi]]''' ( talk| contribs) 05:43, 14 April 2024 (UTC) reply

@ CanonNi Doesn't look like it's worked sadly, the composition bars in the infobox for Law and Justice (Poland) are still all

I've changed it to "Law and Justice", it should work now. Sorry for the mistake. '''[[ User:CanonNi]]''' ( talk| contribs) 05:52, 14 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Ah wait, but now {{party color|Law and Justice (Poland)}} doesn't work anymore GlowstoneUnknown ( talk) 06:00, 14 April 2024 (UTC) reply

@ CanonNi Yeah, you've {{Party color|Law and Justice}} working again, but {{Party color|Law and Justice (Poland)}} doesn't work anymore GlowstoneUnknown ( talk) 06:07, 14 April 2024 (UTC) reply

I have an idea. Instead of using Law and Justice, which is a name shared by multiple political parties, we use Law and Justice (Poland) for articles that mention it. '''[[ User:CanonNi]]''' ( talk| contribs) 06:12, 14 April 2024 (UTC) reply

User:CanonNi The only trouble with that is that it breaks all the articles that use the old article's name to link to it and you end up with a situation like this in the infobox:

Seats in the Sejm:

163 / 460

Seats in the Senate:

29 / 100

And my reasoning for having both is that the new Croatian one can just be {{party color|Law and Justice (Croatia)}} while the Polish party can use both {{party color|Law and Justice (Poland)}} for accuracy and {{party color|Law and Justice}} for backwards compatibility and to not break old pages written before the foundation of the new Law and Justice (Croatia). GlowstoneUnknown ( talk) 06:18, 14 April 2024 (UTC) reply

I've added Law and Justice as an alternative name for Law and Justice (Poland). Now it should finally work for both names. '''[[ User:CanonNi]]''' ( talk| contribs) 06:26, 14 April 2024 (UTC) reply

I want to propose a change to the Alliance for Albanians abbreviation, make it ASh instead of AS, because ASh has always been used for display on all wiki pages, and the Sh is actually one sound in the Shqiptarët word of the party name in Albanian.
