Why should we inform people what Saakashvili thinks about the issues ( in this article)? He can not compete in the elections because he is no longer a citizen of Ukraine and if he still was Opinion polling for the Ukrainian presidential election, 2019 shows he does not have support for such a candidacy since February 2017 (see also here).... — Yulia Romero • Talk to me! 21:19, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

As some of you have noticed 😁, I have been regularly updating this Wikipedia article the last weeks.... But due to some positive developments in my life 🙂 I will not be regularly updating this Wikipedia article anymore.... However if you want to follow the latest developments in the election you can check them out this newsfeed by Ukrayinska Pravda. — Yulia Romero • Talk to me! 22:22, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

I do not see any information about this in the Wikipedia article about the 2017 French presidential election..... so I assume that information like this should not be in a Wikipedia article. Wikipedia is not an almanac. But here (in Ukrainian) you can find information about how much the candidates spend on TV adds and whose ones are most shown. — Yulia Romero • Talk to me! 19:45, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

Petro Poroshenko is registered as independent, but shown here as being backed with his own Petro Poroshenko Bloc "Solidarity". Could we maybe use its color? Would be easier for the maps results.-- Aréat ( talk) 15:19, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
I support this. -- Panam2014 ( talk) 12:55, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
Hi
His color is green, not blue. Blue is the color of the series. -- Panam2014 ( talk) 10:00, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
If Ukrain indeed consider blank votes as valid ones, it would mean that we could represent them like in Spanish election (for example), which would mean calculating the percentages accordingly. We do so for several countries already. Whether blank votes are valid or not, it shouldn't change the turnout, however.-- Aréat ( talk) 17:20, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
No reason to change the results, for example, Zelensky have won 30.24, not 30.61. -- Panam2014 ( talk) 10:53, 13 April 2019 (UTC)
@ Yulia Romero, YantarCoast, and Динамо-фан: an opinion on this issue? Cheep ( talk) 11:45, 13 April 2019 (UTC)
It is not our role to do calculation, if official sources wrote 30.24, we should respect it. -- Panam2014 ( talk) 19:50, 13 April 2019 (UTC)
I hope the exceptionally dirty campaign from the side of Poroshenko will be covered. Staszek Lem ( talk) 22:42, 21 April 2019 (UTC)

I saw that the infobox listed Zelenskyy as receiving 74.96% and Poroshenko 25.04% (and the lede section said that Zelenskyy received 75%). This calculation adds up to 100% and seems to be based only on valid votes, which is not consistent with how these results are reported everywhere else (e.g. the Central Election Commission that the article itself cites has 73.22% and 24.45% - but also more sources here - basically everywhere reports Zelenskyy's result as ~73%, and the Ukrainian Wikipedia article also does this).
I edited the infobox and lede section, but I'm seeing that the table in the Results section seems to automatically calculate the percentage based on valid votes only, using Template:Election results. I'm unsure how to change this, and am wondering if anyone is more familiar with this template?
