Wondering how long before it should be noted that Dorries has not actually resigned. Until she is officially appointed to one of the roles which ends her time as an MP the by-election is not official. The appointment will be listed here when it happens: HM Treasury Announcements
The AfD proposing deletion of this article has failed, but it raised a number of questions. I suggest we should do two things. First, can we better discuss the uncertainty around Dorries' intentions within the article? Has anyone seen some good reliable source coverage we can use?
Second, the AfD discussion mooted renaming this article to Potential Mid Bedfordshire by-election or Possible Mid Bedfordshire by-election or Future Mid Bedfordshire by-election. Should we do that? Bondegezou ( talk) 10:21, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
Individual scheduled or expected future events should be included only if the event is notable and almost certain to take place.and I don't think a 2023 date is "almost certain". -- LukeSurl t c 12:35, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
Why are we keeping the year 2023 in the article title? Surely it would be more appropriate to rename it Future Mid Bedfordshire by-election? Nadine Dorries, despite having announced she will be resigning, has not yet done so; any date as to when she might (and thus when the subsequent by-election would be) is pure guesswork and speculation. 2A00:23C6:6F1D:CB01:6597:1E4D:7E9E:A1CC ( talk) 13:47, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
Discussion above and on the prior AfD seems to support a move to "Potential..." or "Future..." with slightly more support for "Potential...". Unless anyone has additional comments, I suggest we make that change. Bondegezou ( talk) 09:54, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
