Although I disagree with you, I respect your view and its consistency.
Could you tell me what you think Bolter and I are missing? Having read widely on this period, I am certain that the current situation is akin to having an article called the Great War, covering the period 1914-18, and then a sub article called World War I covering the period 1917-18 (post the entry of the United States). The two names “1948 Palestine war” and “1948 Arab-Israeli war” are synonyms in common speech, so our unique way of treating it causes confusion to readers, as evidenced by the pageview stats. It is also an embarrassment for our encyclopaedia, and hampers our attempt to convince readers to to trust our coverage of the overall conflict.
Surely if we had a situation like a Great War article covering 1914-18 and a World War I article covering 1917-18, you would be supportive of fixing it. Yet here you have been consistently attacking our efforts.
I would be grateful if you could try to explain what exactly you are seeing differently here, and ideally point me to some evidence? You seem to have knowledge of this subject, so i’d appreciate your help.

Hi, unfortunately it doesn't appears so simple. It's a continuation of the same team in the sense of players and management. However, based on statements and reports from when the move was first announced, London City Lionesses is a new entity, legally and FA affilation-wise. The Millwall Lionesses football honours are staying with Millwall. [1] The FA WC licence is transferred to LCL, rather than staying with the same (C)FA affiliate with a change of name. We may or may not want to treat the new ML as a continuation the old ML, but we don't treat MK Dons as continuation of Wimbledon FC. Then again, we did treat Notts County LFC as a continuation of Lincoln City LFC even when that wasn't the case either I don't think. -- KTC ( talk) 08:21, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
Looks like you walked away from following Blackpool even more than I did. Was just reading your article on the Athletic Grounds, so thought I'd say 'ello. - NewTestLeper79 talk 01:56, 7 July 2019 (UTC)
Hi. You pointed out that the % gains/losses data I added should not be in a column that was reserved for gains/losses data about seats. Fair point! But maybe it would have been more constructive to just move the column to the right place and insert a new empty column for the seats numbers, which would have taken two or three clicks in visual editing, rather than just revert the update and undo my work?
In any case, since you also reverted the partial update I did next (I updated the percentage points but not yet the vote tallies, which I was going to do next), I'm giving up. Best of luck. No-itsme ( talk) 22:25, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

Hello Sir Sorry to bother you I see that you are interested in politics and in referendums (After i want to thank u fir ur tireless work efforts and edits) I want to refer to a very unpublicised english-none sourced or mentioned referendum that occured yesterday in August. Hope u can see fit that u or another more experienced editor create the English page for https://es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consulta_popular_para_convocar_a_referéndum_contra_la_Ley_Trans
For more infos, please check https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGBT_rights_in_Uruguay#Gender_identity_and_expression and a simple google search for Ley Trans Uruguay will give u multiple sources and infos that i'm sure are all in the spanish wiki page of that miserably failed referendum Thank you sir!

Your tables are not the correct ones if you go to election tables on european or asian parties for exapmle Cambodian People's Party lib dems tories swedish democrats none are using your format.So you are lying to me instead of undoying my work. Why don't you make something productive also why should i use your format. Other articles are using other formats who are you to tell me what to do. I did not break wikipedia rules i even took some of your advice and you go tamper wiht my work leave me alone or talk sowe can find a compromise
"This isn't really a question of compromise" so we have to do what you say no questions asked
"If you cannot change the alignment using Visualeditor, can you switch to normal editing to allow you to see the code?" Nice idea the problem is i can not code also why does it have to be centre-aligned is written somewhere that they have to be centre-aligned
Perhaps Visualeditor is also the reason why you are adding bolding code where it is not needed?" i don't get your question
"With regards to the heading, there is simply no point in having a heading on the table that is exactly the same as the section heading directly above it. Why do readers need to see "National Assembly" twice in two rows? It's completely unnecessary" no you said heading can't be links so put on the above the table maybe the readers want to click to see the national assembly for example i did not even know that Coloured Persons' Representative Council even existed Please respond can you respond please
Best thing i can do is not doing Duplicate headings apart from that i am not gonna bother with your other requests if you are not willing to compromise i am not gonna talk to you any more. You just enforcing your arbitrary standards and then people wonder why no one wants to contribute wikipedia Btw the things you do is really demoralising to new editors like me who are just trying to make wikipedia better bless your heart

I understand this is merely a semantic interpretation issue. As provided in dictionaries, "statutory" also means "of or relating to statutes". Thus, "statutory" relates to "Statute" just as "constitutional" relates to "Constitution".
The issue with this is that "autonomy" is not precise enough. Both the 1980 and 1981 Andalusian referendums, for instance, would be "autonomy" referendums, but their scope was vastly different (the first one was for being allowed access to autonomy, the second one was to ratify a Statute of Autonomy). Referendums on constitutional approvals and amendments throughout Wikipedia are dubbed "constitutional", so there is no reason not to use "statutory" for these, as it would be consistent. I await for your reply. Impru20 talk 17:18, 1 September 2019 (UTC)
is only used in the sense of something being a legal requirement, and
it effectively means 'A legally required referendum...'. This is exactly what the word is used for in those contexts, in order to define the cause that led to the referendum, i.e. that it was enforced by a law, and thus also binding, a fact that is explained and sourced just further ahead in the lead. And no, I'm not trying to make any point as you suggested earlier; in fact, I found the word appropiate because you had been so insistent on the actual meaning of it and did convince me on its meaning, and now you argue that using it in such a way is not correct English? You've only provided examples of other articles (as if WP articles were consistent at the word level...) and your opinion on why you like "binding" more, but no reasoning as to why using the actual word that is intended to convey the actual meaning that is given to the lead section is not "correct English". Sincerely, I find this discussion rather absurd considering we had already discussed on the semantic issues of the word and reached a quick compromise (which, btw, I do approve of).

Number 57, I note the page moves for List of ambassadors of Solomon Islands to China and List of ambassadors of Solomon Islands to Taiwan. The original titles were intentional as the official name of the nation is without the definite article. 'The Solomon Islands', since 1978, generally refers post colonial era to the Solomon Islands archipelago, which is a different geographical area. Please refer to the discussion in the history of Solomon islands and the talk pages, various places. The SI Constitution refers to Solomon Islands, Elizabeth II is Queen of Solomon Islands, her Governor General is the GG Solomon Islands. This is the convention across all the nation state and archiplago articles and these tiles changes cause an anomally. It is parriclularly problematical because this page refers to diplomatic relations and the diplomatic community will get it right. When the Chinese ambassador is appointed, she/he will be the ambassador to Solomon Isladns not the Ambassador to the Solomonla. Using the 'the' ignores the wishes of the nation, local practice, the consitution and perpetuates a colonial attitude to the new nation. A Google search turns up many more hits with the definite article than without because of the many WW2 pages and because of references to the British protectorate. Part of what was "the Solomon Islands" in colonial days is now in Papua New Guinea. E x nihil ( talk) : Ex nihil (talk) 08:41, 30 September 2019 (UTC)

i stand by my all statements and i ask again why should we do it your way i provided examples again i ask are you some sort of authority are you the owner why should back down why not try find a consensus. Your logic implies the the notion of a master editor and a slave editor who obeys the majority of election tables do not comply with your ridiculous standards why should i listen to unless you are the owner or the admin again i demand either consensus or arbitration i complied with previous demands in the spirit of unity now i demand on whose authority do you reverse my edits i demand detailed explanations

Re keeping national elections in the “20XX elections in Europe category, as well as in the “20XX elections in Fooland category”, the existing countries with these categories (eg United Kingdom, France) do not have this dual categorisation as far as I am aware, so I was following the existing practice with Greece and Portugal.

Hello,
Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.
I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!
From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.
If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.
Thank you!

African Elections Database often does not publish official results. Sources may publish results based on provisional data, but a reliable source must publish the official results, as they have been published (in this case) by the Government Gazette of the Republic of Namibia: 1999 elections (even if it includes a mistake) and 2004 elections. Provisional or, in any case, unofficial results, even if they come from government sources, have no relevance. For this reason, I recommend using sources as AED only when finding official or primary sources is really impossible. -- 151 cp ( talk) 00:43, 1 December 2019 (UTC)

Hello, I am having problem with the whole elections thingy on Kyrgyzstan. Kyrgyzstan is a unitary parliamentary republic. All pages I see on Wikipedia have usually a title of "general election". Your argument is that it has presidential elections. There's literally parliamentary countries that have presidential elections and they still use the word "general election" for the parliament.
So why it can't exactly apply to Kyrgyzstan? -- ShadZ01 ( talk) 01:04, 19 December 2019 (UTC)

Then the article title is very wrong as it should be Macedonian, and not North Macedonian. I referred to the Prespa Agreement as something that most people refer to when they discuss of this topic. In the international communication or anywhere else where is used official communication the adjective North Macedonian is not used therefore the article topic is wrong and should be changed, otherwise is a big minus for the English Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.28.169.241 ( talk) 22:30, 7 January 2020 (UTC)

But it is not consider as election(s), it is a single election where there are different parts like Zilla, Gram....., etc. As I am from India, I know it better & Indian Panchayat elections are totally different from others like Iraq, US you mentioned above.

Regarding your edit on Maimon, what would you say about putting the information about Pekelman in a "Trivia" section, rather than under the "Biography" section? This would be for the benefit of not leaving the Pekelman article orphaned: the uniqueness and notability of Pekelman is very much because of the document she left as an ordinary person rather than a political or social leader, so it is not easy to link to her.

Hi! A few hours ago I started a move discussion at Talk:2020 Malawian presidential election. Thanks very much for the prompt response and for completing that move. However, the way that process played out left me with an open question. In your message when you closed it, you critiqued my request with the comment "This should have just been moved without starting an RM." This was my first time noticing that a page should probably be moved where a) the page was part of a system of pages that I have never touched before, and b) I didn't really know the reliable sources enough to be certain that the move was correct without substantially more research. WP:RM#CM point 2 says that if "someone could reasonably disagree with the move" -- which is tremendously broad advice -- then the correct procedure is to start a move discussion, and in general my understanding is that starting a conversation is preferred on Wikipedia when you cannot reasonably assume a consensus. So that I can have a finer sense for when to start a discussion and when not to, I'm curious why in this case it didn't make the bar for starting a discussion, and how I should be reading that second point in WP:RM#CM. Thanks! - Astrophobe ( talk) 02:05, 19 February 2020 (UTC)

I think it's questionable that they're the same body: a colonial territorial legislature with initially limited powers is a very different beast from an independent national parliament, even if they're essentially contiguous. Its powers and the legal basis for its existence as the House of Assembly were quite different to both of those things as the National Parliament, even if the sitting term of the House of Assembly did morph into the National Parliament. It's obviously not a clear-cut situation but my inclination is to treat them as basically separate bodies. Even if they were treated as one body, I think it's critical to separate them at least in the template because otherwise it gives the misleading impression that people who weren't members of a national legislature were. The Drover's Wife ( talk) 23:17, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
There's a lot of assumptions there. Wikipedia has articles on tens of thousands of trivial male players who would be less notable, and of far less interest to less people, than top-tier women players. The "professional" delineator doesn't work well for women's sport, where even many televised national leagues (in various sports) are still technically semi-professional: the assumption that there's "sufficient interest in the league" for men's leagues worldwide (no matter how obscure) but not "sufficient interest in the league" for women's sports with national television audiences and comprehensive newspaper coverage because they attract less sponsorship dollars (speaking generally rather than just about soccer here) doesn't hold up. The guideline is not "simply a reflection of the real life level of interest in different leagues" - it's a reflection of how a small group of largely male Wikipedians interested in soccer view the real life level of interest in different leagues.

Hi. I've done that now. Sorry it took me so long.
I am writing this in good faith. I really was hesitant at reverting your post, but it is sneaky to edit your original post which had a time signature of 18:37, to edit the article at 19:03 and then edit your original post, so it appears to the reader as if it had been always been there. If you want to change your posts in that way, you should remove it, move it after my post and change the time signature accordingly. As an experienced user: you should really know that is the honest thing to do. As I say, this is in good faith and don't want this thing to blow up, which it shouldn't and we can eventually get to a resolution on our disagreement. Humongous125 ( talk) 21:12, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
The proposed format for the tables was referred here and in the Wikitalk for Elections which you set up, a user stated that the leaders column was sometimes useful. The other user didn’t think it was worth discussion unless it was being deleted from another page. As there had been some sort of agreement developed with the other users that responded in both talkpages, I thought it would be okay to continue implementing the proposed format. However you have been reverting the edits I make and I think you are abusing BRD.

Hi. Thanks for closing this long-overdue request.
But there were several specific naming guidelines that supported the move. The guideline cited several times in opposition was WP:CONSISTENT, which was spurious, because it actually supports consistency with all of the many articles with organizations’ containing Kyiv in their names. I’ll ask you to please check you’re familiar with the specific relevant guidelines and arguments, and reconsider the move. Let me know if you won’t, and then I would file a request to review the ruling. Thanks. — Michael Z. 2020-04-09 00:01 z

I also noticed that Murdoch University Dubai had passed the review with only one reference from another UAE based news agency the same one mentioned in mine The National. You stated that if I have any conflict of interest to state it, after re-submitting the draft only once, which I don't understand why because after I had been told to include other references from the previous reviewer, that's what I did, I'm not getting rewarded and nor am I enrolled in the institution I can give you their email to double check, I'm just here to upload articles.

Thank you for the response, I'm being completely honesty when I say that, I had no idea that someone else had written an article prior to mine regarding this university, as I didn't see it being mentioned on the page when I started it, which I had seen on prior drafts that had been deleted or taken down, if that was the case I would've contacted the reviewers who had taken down the page and requested permission and guidance. I did not use any personal pronouns like we as the other editor did in the prior article, as I was strictly following Wikipedia's unbiased formal tone. I hope you can give me the benefit of the doubt, the text may seem similar because these are the articles that had been published so far. The only page I had published so far, was in relation to a Navy SEAL and I took on this one to diversify my abilities in edited and creating different drafts in other areas of the Wikipedia. I have not been rewarded or tasked with creating a page, if there's some way I could prove it to you I would, I'm being truthful in what I say. ( Delta fiver ( talk) (UTC) 19:20, 19 April 2020 (UTC))
I did not try to copy anything from the 2017 article as I was unaware of it, I got those links when I looked up Middlesex University Dubai news articles to do research on, where I found the Khaleej times article and a couple of pages later The National article. I also used the Middlesex University London page, as the campus was mentioned there and so I got references to a couple of articles or links I could use to report on. I don't think I had the exact wording, I tried to paraphrase or make my own version to avoid copying or getting a copyright claim which was evident in the news articles, If anything I was taking information off the articles not off the 2017 draft which I had no idea of until now.

Hi, user Nbanic, who has been blocked for violating the 3RR has used first a sock puppets while the block was active Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Nbanic and in that way being disruptive on the same article Josip Broz Tito where user Nbanic broke the 3RR. Now he is using a second sock puppet making edits: (Grammar fix), similar to the edits made by the blocked sock puppet Nachtjaeger2: (and subsequent => and the subsequent), (Removing "<>" added by error.) and (on factory workers => on the factory workers) and editing the same material that was introduced by user Nbanic himself when he broke the 3RR: [5]. I thought that you should be informed about this kind of continous disruptive behavior. Can something be done about this repetitive abuse of Wikipedia rules? This kind of behavior by user Nbanic makes editing Wikipedia less enjoyable for everyone and makes it hard to edit Wikipedia when someone needs to deal, constantly with multiple sock puppets and constant edit wars instigated by the sock master account. It is clear that user Nbanic hasn't learned anything from the 48 hour block. -- Tuvixer ( talk) 11:30, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
Hi, user Nbanic is no longer blocked and has made an on the article Josip Broz Tito, without any consensus, restoring the content added by his sock puppet Nachtjaeger2 - the blocked sock puppet - Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Nbanic. With that edit, he started yet again one of his common edit wars. You have warned him: "If you continue to make reverts on the Tito article without gaining consensus once your block is lifted, you will be blocked again.". This kind of disruptive behavior makes it impossible to edit Wikipedia when user Nbanic is involved. Unfortunately, this is not the first time, and it is not going to be the last time, that he engages in that kind of disruptive behavior, leading into endless and countless edit wars. User Nbanic has not learned anything after being blocked twice in the last couple of days. Both times for a 48 hour period. -- Tuvixer ( talk) 09:48, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
Hi, I would like to ask you a question. Unfortunately this is a serious matter. In the past months I have observed a continuous disruptive behavior by some users in topic related articles. They engage in edit wars and without any attempt, after being reverted, to start a discussion and to seek consensus. I have observed that this users only stop edit warring, after being warned or when an admin intervenes. Then they ignore the discussion on the talk page or they do engage in a discussion but only to go on and on in circles, often name calling other users and pretending like the fact that they have been reverted multiple times and have engaged in disruptive behavior is nothing. The edits cover almost the same general topic, and the sources provided are mostly not reliable. Often these users try to push some changes falsely and intentionally misrepresenting what the sources state, even when reliable sources seem to have been provided. It is done in a manipulative way and shows a significant amount of bad faith by the users in question. These users often "help" each other by joining the edit wars that some of them have started and reverting others involved them from breaking the 3RR. All that behavior is disruptive and it makes editing Wikipedia really impossible, in a meaningful and productive way. The explanation of edits is often manipulative, and the overall demeanor in general. All stated above and below and even more, are the reasons why I am forced to seek protection from that kind of behavior and practice. There is much more to it and I can explain everything in detail, so this was only a very brief summary of what is going on.
This behavior I have observed mostly around user Sadko, but looking only in the past few days I have seen that other users seem to be involved in this in one way or another.
This all I have observed in the following articles:
this all happened only in the past few days. And I have observed this only by quickly looking at contributions made by user Sadko in the past two or three day, so I could have missed something. The articles in question are all Croatia related articles, and all the edits are same or of similar nature and cover the same general topic. I can explain this in detail if needed. If there is need to explain why some sources, that these users have provided, are not reliable, I can do that in detail. And if it is not clear from the start that the edits made by this users are POV pushing I can explain that also, in detail. A few developments in the past month, and especially in the past few day have revealed something that was not clear before. The edits made by this users particularly in Republic of Ragusa and Glina, Croatia, if looked closely, indicate and clearly show how the edits made by the users in question are biased and only made so that they can be misleading. They are giving undue weight to unreliable sources and interpreting the sources in a misleading way. It is really hard to engage in any meaningful work on Wikipedia when such behavior is constantly practiced. I can explain also how these users are trying to push some changes by falsely and intentionally misrepresenting the sources. The kind of manipulative removal of content in the Glina article, just because they do not like is unfathomable. I can explain this in detail. There seems to be an agenda behind that kind of removal of sourced content and edit warring. It seems that, article about Glina being a small article, the involved users thought that this kind of edits will "pass under the radar", that no one will notice. I have observed also that this behavior often seems coordinated. So my question is basically, what to do? I have spent some time reading what should/can be done but still I don't really know. This behavior is not only edit warring, here is happening something more than just edit warring. There might even be a conflict of interest. Also maybe even sock puppetry. It can be also said that this is a sort trolling with purpose, or bullying, but maybe I would not go that far. I am saying this because all this is mostly done in a "smart" way by long time users, who know how Wikipedia works. That is way all this is so much more troubling. Not to mention the coordinated help with the 3RR. Because pf the scale of it and that it is focused explicitly in Croatia related articles it is hard for me to know, where I should file a report or what to do in this kind of situation? What noticeboard is best suited to deal with this kind of disruptive behavior that is more than just edit warring? If I need to explain something more, please tell me and I will do that. I never thought that this would be the kind of work that I would practice on Wikipedia, but after some months of seeing first hand of what is going on, and that it really seems that there is no way but to seek protection from that kind of behavior, I am forced to resolve this with the proper authorities on Wikipedia. There is no point in editing Wikipedia if this kind of continuous and targeted, disruptive and manipulative behavior is to be allowed. -- Tuvixer ( talk) 18:23, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
@ PortalTwo: What somebody finds funny is completely irrelevant to me. I have planned to do it for a long time, considering that nobody has done it for ages.

Reverted, warned, protected. Giant Snowman 17:50, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
Hi, today one of my earlier sourced content contributions on the article Socialist Republic of Croatia was reverted by user Tuvixer [6]. In the description of the reversion it is stated that references like that need to have pages. I have the page numbers of course and I checked on Google Books whether they are publicly verifiable - they are. I am now going to put this content back with better the same references reinforced with the page numbers since this was the only requirement stated in the reversion description. I am saying this in advance because it seems to me that some of user Tuvixer's recent behavior in directed at denigrating every thing that I do including stuff as simple as grammar edits with no change of content meaning. So in short - should any accusation fall again, I am editing simply in accordance with the complaint that the references that were there earlier need to have pages - I put the page numbers now and they are verifiable. It seems to me that this should not be a problem. Nbanic ( talk) 17:59, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
Hi, user Nbanic has yet again reverted my edit without any consensus. User Nbanic reverted material back without gaining consensus in a Yugoslavia-related article. It was not a grammatical and spelling correction but an edit in the lead of the article. I have started a discussion on the article talk page and explained in detail why I have removed such content. Also I was going to propose the removal of everything "commonly called" as you have pointed out correctly that "It should be enough to use "Socialist Republic of Croatia" in the introduction". Unfortunately user Nbanic had reverted me again, in record time, without a consensus. It is impossible to edit Wikipedia when user Nbanic is involved. -- Tuvixer ( talk) 20:13, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for your review of all this. So far I have made good-faith attempts to respond to all the specific requests regarding the edit. Every time, it's deleted wholesale without meaningful engagement; no one will be specific. I am trying; how long should I wait for people to reply before assuming consent is achieved and I can restore the edit? Policies don't seem to say. The guy who reverted me three times and complained about my personal politics (and then complained I'd done three reverts when I hadn't) has already served a lengthy ban from US politics articles, then got reinstated when the person hearing the appeals said they couldn't be bothered to read through what he's done. I just feel like trying to do a good-faith helpful edit giving useful context on an important thinker's most famous work, in the article about him, is the victim of people trying to let his critics dominate the discussion.

Hello. I've never been a technical expert, but the executive summary goes: what I was led to believe at the time the alternative version was being constructed and trialled was that, while sighted users see and understand the squad as one list laid out in two columns, screen readers follow the html and the users "see" two tables. The missing nationality column header didn't help, but that could've been fixed anytime. You could try asking Thumperward, who was involved with the alternative version and is technically competent.
As to whether it's a significant problem, it'd be sensible to get someone who actually uses a screen reader in real life to look at the old and new versions and get their opinion. Perhaps ask someone like Graham87, who edits using a screen reader?
While I'm here: not sure what the point of the sorting is in the new two-column version, given it works within one column at a time. E.g. if you want to use the sort facility to see how many English players Man Utd have in their squad, and click the sort button on the Nat column in the LH half, it just sorts the column in the LH half. So you see how many English players they have with squad numbers <21 or whatever, but the RH half is a different table and doesn't get included.
Also, the name column sorts by first name rather than surname, which is nothing to do with accessibility but doesn't seem entirely sensible.

Update: Based on the Kiribati Moa source, I've been able to update the French article to indicate the party of each elected MP and of each defeated incumbent, and the total of seats per party. If Kiribati Moa's claims are correct, they have 24 seats - an absolute majority! And Tobwaan Kiribati have only 12! The "aki oki" parts of the list on Facebook seem to mix defeated incumbents and re-elected incumbents, so you can't make sense of the numbers unless you have a list of the elected MPs that you can apply those political labels to.

Hello, I see you rejected my draft edit of 2019–20 Stockport County F.C. season, reason given as - Stockport are not in a top professional league. Tranmere Rovers, Gateshead and Chester, while these are season pages are from 2015-16, These three teams played that season in the Conference National (now named National League), the same league Stockport played in for 2019-20. You say the league isn't fully professional, it has more fully professional teams competing in the league now than it did in 2015-16. Stockport also played in the Conference National (they level they are currently at) in 2011–12 and 2012–13 and these articles have been allowed.

Although I disagree with you, I respect your view and its consistency.
Could you tell me what you think Bolter and I are missing? Having read widely on this period, I am certain that the current situation is akin to having an article called the Great War, covering the period 1914-18, and then a sub article called World War I covering the period 1917-18 (post the entry of the United States). The two names “1948 Palestine war” and “1948 Arab-Israeli war” are synonyms in common speech, so our unique way of treating it causes confusion to readers, as evidenced by the pageview stats. It is also an embarrassment for our encyclopaedia, and hampers our attempt to convince readers to to trust our coverage of the overall conflict.
Surely if we had a situation like a Great War article covering 1914-18 and a World War I article covering 1917-18, you would be supportive of fixing it. Yet here you have been consistently attacking our efforts.
I would be grateful if you could try to explain what exactly you are seeing differently here, and ideally point me to some evidence? You seem to have knowledge of this subject, so i’d appreciate your help.

Hi, unfortunately it doesn't appears so simple. It's a continuation of the same team in the sense of players and management. However, based on statements and reports from when the move was first announced, London City Lionesses is a new entity, legally and FA affilation-wise. The Millwall Lionesses football honours are staying with Millwall. [1] The FA WC licence is transferred to LCL, rather than staying with the same (C)FA affiliate with a change of name. We may or may not want to treat the new ML as a continuation the old ML, but we don't treat MK Dons as continuation of Wimbledon FC. Then again, we did treat Notts County LFC as a continuation of Lincoln City LFC even when that wasn't the case either I don't think. -- KTC ( talk) 08:21, 30 June 2019 (UTC)

Hi. You pointed out that the % gains/losses data I added should not be in a column that was reserved for gains/losses data about seats. Fair point!

In any case, since you also reverted the partial update I did next (I updated the percentage points but not yet the vote tallies, which I was going to do next), I'm giving up. Best of luck. No-itsme ( talk) 22:25, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

Hello Sir Sorry to bother you I see that you are interested in politics and in referendums (After i want to thank u fir ur tireless work efforts and edits) I want to refer to a very unpublicised english-none sourced or mentioned referendum that occured yesterday in August.

Your tables are not the correct ones if you go to election tables on european or asian parties for exapmle Cambodian People's Party lib dems tories swedish democrats none are using your format.So you are lying to me instead of undoying my work. Why don't you make something productive also why should i use your format. Other articles are using other formats who are you to tell me what to do. I did not break wikipedia rules i even took some of your advice and you go tamper wiht my work leave me alone or talk sowe can find a compromise
"This isn't really a question of compromise" so we have to do what you say no questions asked
"If you cannot change the alignment using Visualeditor, can you switch to normal editing to allow you to see the code?" Nice idea the problem is i can not code also why does it have to be centre-aligned is written somewhere that they have to be centre-aligned
Perhaps Visualeditor is also the reason why you are adding bolding code where it is not needed?" i don't get your question
"With regards to the heading, there is simply no point in having a heading on the table that is exactly the same as the section heading directly above it. Why do readers need to see "National Assembly" twice in two rows? It's completely unnecessary" no you said heading can't be links so put on the above the table maybe the readers want to click to see the national assembly for example i did not even know that Coloured Persons' Representative Council even existed Please respond can you respond please
Best thing i can do is not doing Duplicate headings apart from that i am not gonna bother with your other requests if you are not willing to compromise i am not gonna talk to you any more. You just enforcing your arbitrary standards and then people wonder why no one wants to contribute wikipedia Btw the things you do is really demoralising to new editors like me who are just trying to make wikipedia better bless your heart

I understand this is merely a semantic interpretation issue. As provided in dictionaries, "statutory" also means "of or relating to statutes". Thus, "statutory" relates to "Statute" just as "constitutional" relates to "Constitution".
The issue with this is that "autonomy" is not precise enough. Both the 1980 and 1981 Andalusian referendums, for instance, would be "autonomy" referendums, but their scope was vastly different (the first one was for being allowed access to autonomy, the second one was to ratify a Statute of Autonomy). Referendums on constitutional approvals and amendments throughout Wikipedia are dubbed "constitutional", so there is no reason not to use "statutory" for these, as it would be consistent. I await for your reply. Impru20 talk 17:18, 1 September 2019 (UTC)
is only used in the sense of something being a legal requirement, and
it effectively means 'A legally required referendum...'. This is exactly what the word is used for in those contexts, in order to define the cause that led to the referendum, i.e. that it was enforced by a law, and thus also binding, a fact that is explained and sourced just further ahead in the lead. And no, I'm not trying to make any point as you suggested earlier; in fact, I found the word appropiate because you had been so insistent on the actual meaning of it and did convince me on its meaning, and now you argue that using it in such a way is not correct English? You've only provided examples of other articles (as if WP articles were consistent at the word level...) and your opinion on why you like "binding" more, but no reasoning as to why using the actual word that is intended to convey the actual meaning that is given to the lead section is not "correct English". Sincerely, I find this discussion rather absurd considering we had already discussed on the semantic issues of the word and reached a quick compromise (which, btw, I do approve of).

Number 57, I note the page moves for List of ambassadors of Solomon Islands to China and List of ambassadors of Solomon Islands to Taiwan. The original titles were intentional as the official name of the nation is without the definite article. 'The Solomon Islands', since 1978, generally refers post colonial era to the Solomon Islands archipelago, which is a different geographical area. Please refer to the discussion in the history of Solomon islands and the talk pages, various places. The SI Constitution refers to Solomon Islands, Elizabeth II is Queen of Solomon Islands, her Governor General is the GG Solomon Islands. This is the convention across all the nation state and archiplago articles and these tiles changes cause an anomally. It is parriclularly problematical because this page refers to diplomatic relations and the diplomatic community will get it right. When the Chinese ambassador is appointed, she/he will be the ambassador to Solomon Isladns not the Ambassador to the Solomonla. Using the 'the' ignores the wishes of the nation, local practice, the consitution and perpetuates a colonial attitude to the new nation. A Google search turns up many more hits with the definite article than without because of the many WW2 pages and because of references to the British protectorate. Part of what was "the Solomon Islands" in colonial days is now in Papua New Guinea. E x nihil ( talk) : Ex nihil (talk) 08:41, 30 September 2019 (UTC)

i stand by my all statements and i ask again why should we do it your way i provided examples again i ask are you some sort of authority are you the owner why should back down why not try find a consensus. Your logic implies the the notion of a master editor and a slave editor who obeys the majority of election tables do not comply with your ridiculous standards why should i listen to unless you are the owner or the admin again i demand either consensus or arbitration i complied with previous demands in the spirit of unity now i demand on whose authority do you reverse my edits i demand detailed explanations
On the unkown tables what if i write N/A i saw it on a table once On the dublicate headings i have 2 proposals both i saw them on the wiki proposal 1 instead of dublicate i write legislative election then the link on the election table proposal 2 i put the link on the heading also before you change stuff i did please contact me and i am more than willing to discuss it also i apologize for saying that you barely contribute
I think it looks better also some article don't have links to the national legislatures also on the unknown question why not write not available please respond

Re keeping national elections in the “20XX elections in Europe category, as well as in the “20XX elections in Fooland category”, the existing countries with these categories (eg United Kingdom, France) do not have this dual categorisation as far as I am aware, so I was following the existing practice with Greece and Portugal. And non-diffusing categoriers are usually marked as such, eg Category:21st-century New Zealand women writers so that other Wikipedians are aware of the special circumstances for those categories eg see Kirsty Gunn who is in that category and also in the Category:21st-century New Zealand writers.

African Elections Database often does not publish official results. Sources may publish results based on provisional data, but a reliable source must publish the official results, as they have been published (in this case) by the Government Gazette of the Republic of Namibia: 1999 elections (even if it includes a mistake) and 2004 elections. Provisional or, in any case, unofficial results, even if they come from government sources, have no relevance.

But it is not consider as election(s), it is a single election where there are different parts like Zilla, Gram....., etc. As I am from India, I know it better & Indian Panchayat elections are totally different from others like Iraq, US you mentioned above. And 'election(s)' mentioned by you totally refers to 2009,2013,2018... elections altogether & since the page refers to only 2018 Panchayat Election, it must be 'election' BIKASH NANDA GOSWAMI ( talk) 16:34, 8 January 2020 (UTC)

Regarding your edit on Maimon, what would you say about putting the information about Pekelman in a "Trivia" section, rather than under the "Biography" section? This would be for the benefit of not leaving the Pekelman article orphaned: the uniqueness and notability of Pekelman is very much because of the document she left as an ordinary person rather than a political or social leader, so it is not easy to link to her. In particular, as far as I can tell, it is reasonable to have trivia sections, per the Wikipedia:Handling trivia section. Thanks in advance, -- Rickjpelleg ( talk) 04:03, 2 February 2020 (UTC)

Hi! A few hours ago I started a move discussion at Talk:2020 Malawian presidential election. Thanks very much for the prompt response and for completing that move. However, the way that process played out left me with an open question. In your message when you closed it, you critiqued my request with the comment "This should have just been moved without starting an RM." This was my first time noticing that a page should probably be moved where a) the page was part of a system of pages that I have never touched before, and b) I didn't really know the reliable sources enough to be certain that the move was correct without substantially more research. WP:RM#CM point 2 says that if "someone could reasonably disagree with the move" -- which is tremendously broad advice -- then the correct procedure is to start a move discussion, and in general my understanding is that starting a conversation is preferred on Wikipedia when you cannot reasonably assume a consensus. So that I can have a finer sense for when to start a discussion and when not to, I'm curious why in this case it didn't make the bar for starting a discussion, and how I should be reading that second point in WP:RM#CM. Thanks! - Astrophobe ( talk) 02:05, 19 February 2020 (UTC)

I think it's questionable that they're the same body: a colonial territorial legislature with initially limited powers is a very different beast from an independent national parliament, even if they're essentially contiguous. Its powers and the legal basis for its existence as the House of Assembly were quite different to both of those things as the National Parliament, even if the sitting term of the House of Assembly did morph into the National Parliament. It's obviously not a clear-cut situation but my inclination is to treat them as basically separate bodies. Even if they were treated as one body, I think it's critical to separate them at least in the template because otherwise it gives the misleading impression that people who weren't members of a national legislature were. The Drover's Wife ( talk) 23:17, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
There's a lot of assumptions there. Wikipedia has articles on tens of thousands of trivial male players who would be less notable, and of far less interest to less people, than top-tier women players. The "professional" delineator doesn't work well for women's sport, where even many televised national leagues (in various sports) are still technically semi-professional: the assumption that there's "sufficient interest in the league" for men's leagues worldwide (no matter how obscure) but not "sufficient interest in the league" for women's sports with national television audiences and comprehensive newspaper coverage because they attract less sponsorship dollars (speaking generally rather than just about soccer here) doesn't hold up. The guideline is not "simply a reflection of the real life level of interest in different leagues" - it's a reflection of how a small group of largely male Wikipedians interested in soccer view the real life level of interest in different leagues.

Hi. I've done that now. Sorry it took me so long.
I am writing this in good faith. I really was hesitant at reverting your post, but it is sneaky to edit your original post which had a time signature of 18:37, to edit the article at 19:03 and then edit your original post, so it appears to the reader as if it had been always been there. If you want to change your posts in that way, you should remove it, move it after my post and change the time signature accordingly. As an experienced user: you should really know that is the honest thing to do. As I say, this is in good faith and don't want this thing to blow up, which it shouldn't and we can eventually get to a resolution on our disagreement. Humongous125 ( talk) 21:12, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
The proposed format for the tables was referred here and in the Wikitalk for Elections which you set up, a user stated that the leaders column was sometimes useful. The other user didn’t think it was worth discussion unless it was being deleted from another page. As there had been some sort of agreement developed with the other users that responded in both talkpages, I thought it would be okay to continue implementing the proposed format. However you have been reverting the edits I make and I think you are abusing BRD. Therefore I am informing you that I have referred this issue to Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard to clear this issue up for the Icelandic Elections.

But there were several specific naming guidelines that supported the move. The guideline cited several times in opposition was WP:CONSISTENT, which was spurious, because it actually supports consistency with all of the many articles with organizations’ containing Kyiv in their names. I’ll ask you to please check you’re familiar with the specific relevant guidelines and arguments, and reconsider the move.

Hi there, I noticed that my draft was declined again due to the lack of reliable references but I am a little confused because, the sources I had given was off the university's courses page and the news paper companies, Khaleej Times and The National here in Dubai. I also noticed that Murdoch University Dubai had passed the review with only one reference from another UAE based news agency the same one mentioned in mine The National. You stated that if I have any conflict of interest to state it, after re-submitting the draft only once, which I don't understand why because after I had been told to include other references from the previous reviewer, that's what I did, I'm not getting rewarded and nor am I enrolled in the institution I can give you their email to double check, I'm just here to upload articles. Also the plethora of other sources had been taken from their courses page done similarly on the American University of Sharjah page, I you want I can remove them and provide just one link for all of them. If you could tell me what needs to be done or maybe reconsider the decision, it would be really appreciated thank you!. ( Delta fiver ( talk) (UTC) 18:38, 19 April 2020 (UTC))
Thank you for the response, I'm being completely honesty when I say that, I had no idea that someone else had written an article prior to mine regarding this university, as I didn't see it being mentioned on the page when I started it, which I had seen on prior drafts that had been deleted or taken down, if that was the case I would've contacted the reviewers who had taken down the page and requested permission and guidance. I did not use any personal pronouns like we as the other editor did in the prior article, as I was strictly following Wikipedia's unbiased formal tone. I hope you can give me the benefit of the doubt, the text may seem similar because these are the articles that had been published so far. The only page I had published so far, was in relation to a Navy SEAL and I took on this one to diversify my abilities in edited and creating different drafts in other areas of the Wikipedia. I have not been rewarded or tasked with creating a page, if there's some way I could prove it to you I would, I'm being truthful in what I say. ( Delta fiver ( talk) (UTC) 19:20, 19 April 2020 (UTC))
I did not try to copy anything from the 2017 article as I was unaware of it, I got those links when I looked up Middlesex University Dubai news articles to do research on, where I found the Khaleej times article and a couple of pages later The National article. I also used the Middlesex University London page, as the campus was mentioned there and so I got references to a couple of articles or links I could use to report on. I don't think I had the exact wording, I tried to paraphrase or make my own version to avoid copying or getting a copyright claim which was evident in the news articles, If anything I was taking information off the articles not off the 2017 draft which I had no idea of until now.

Hi, user Nbanic, who has been blocked for violating the 3RR has used first a sock puppets while the block was active Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Nbanic and in that way being disruptive on the same article Josip Broz Tito where user Nbanic broke the 3RR. Now he is using a second sock puppet making edits: (Grammar fix), similar to the edits made by the blocked sock puppet Nachtjaeger2: (and subsequent => and the subsequent), (Removing "<>" added by error.) and (on factory workers => on the factory workers) and editing the same material that was introduced by user Nbanic himself when he broke the 3RR: [5]. I thought that you should be informed about this kind of continous disruptive behavior. Can something be done about this repetitive abuse of Wikipedia rules? This kind of behavior by user Nbanic makes editing Wikipedia less enjoyable for everyone and makes it hard to edit Wikipedia when someone needs to deal, constantly with multiple sock puppets and constant edit wars instigated by the sock master account. It is clear that user Nbanic hasn't learned anything from the 48 hour block. -- Tuvixer ( talk) 11:30, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
Hi, user Nbanic is no longer blocked and has made an on the article Josip Broz Tito, without any consensus, restoring the content added by his sock puppet Nachtjaeger2 - the blocked sock puppet - Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Nbanic. With that edit, he started yet again one of his common edit wars. You have warned him: "If you continue to make reverts on the Tito article without gaining consensus once your block is lifted, you will be blocked again.". This kind of disruptive behavior makes it impossible to edit Wikipedia when user Nbanic is involved. Unfortunately, this is not the first time, and it is not going to be the last time, that he engages in that kind of disruptive behavior, leading into endless and countless edit wars. User Nbanic has not learned anything after being blocked twice in the last couple of days. Both times for a 48 hour period. -- Tuvixer ( talk) 09:48, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
Hi, I would like to ask you a question. Unfortunately this is a serious matter. In the past months I have observed a continuous disruptive behavior by some users in topic related articles. They engage in edit wars and without any attempt, after being reverted, to start a discussion and to seek consensus. I have observed that this users only stop edit warring, after being warned or when an admin intervenes. Then they ignore the discussion on the talk page or they do engage in a discussion but only to go on and on in circles, often name calling other users and pretending like the fact that they have been reverted multiple times and have engaged in disruptive behavior is nothing. The edits cover almost the same general topic, and the sources provided are mostly not reliable. Often these users try to push some changes falsely and intentionally misrepresenting what the sources state, even when reliable sources seem to have been provided. It is done in a manipulative way and shows a significant amount of bad faith by the users in question. These users often "help" each other by joining the edit wars that some of them have started and reverting others involved them from breaking the 3RR. All that behavior is disruptive and it makes editing Wikipedia really impossible, in a meaningful and productive way. The explanation of edits is often manipulative, and the overall demeanor in general. All stated above and below and even more, are the reasons why I am forced to seek protection from that kind of behavior and practice. There is much more to it and I can explain everything in detail, so this was only a very brief summary of what is going on.
This behavior I have observed mostly around user Sadko, but looking only in the past few days I have seen that other users seem to be involved in this in one way or another.
This all I have observed in the following articles:
this all happened only in the past few days. And I have observed this only by quickly looking at contributions made by user Sadko in the past two or three day, so I could have missed something. The articles in question are all Croatia related articles, and all the edits are same or of similar nature and cover the same general topic. I can explain this in detail if needed. If there is need to explain why some sources, that these users have provided, are not reliable, I can do that in detail. And if it is not clear from the start that the edits made by this users are POV pushing I can explain that also, in detail. A few developments in the past month, and especially in the past few day have revealed something that was not clear before. The edits made by this users particularly in Republic of Ragusa and Glina, Croatia, if looked closely, indicate and clearly show how the edits made by the users in question are biased and only made so that they can be misleading. They are giving undue weight to unreliable sources and interpreting the sources in a misleading way. It is really hard to engage in any meaningful work on Wikipedia when such behavior is constantly practiced. I can explain also how these users are trying to push some changes by falsely and intentionally misrepresenting the sources. The kind of manipulative removal of content in the Glina article, just because they do not like is unfathomable. I can explain this in detail. There seems to be an agenda behind that kind of removal of sourced content and edit warring. It seems that, article about Glina being a small article, the involved users thought that this kind of edits will "pass under the radar", that no one will notice. I have observed also that this behavior often seems coordinated. So my question is basically, what to do? I have spent some time reading what should/can be done but still I don't really know. This behavior is not only edit warring, here is happening something more than just edit warring. There might even be a conflict of interest. Also maybe even sock puppetry. It can be also said that this is a sort trolling with purpose, or bullying, but maybe I would not go that far. I am saying this because all this is mostly done in a "smart" way by long time users, who know how Wikipedia works. That is way all this is so much more troubling. Not to mention the coordinated help with the 3RR. Because pf the scale of it and that it is focused explicitly in Croatia related articles it is hard for me to know, where I should file a report or what to do in this kind of situation? What noticeboard is best suited to deal with this kind of disruptive behavior that is more than just edit warring? If I need to explain something more, please tell me and I will do that. I never thought that this would be the kind of work that I would practice on Wikipedia, but after some months of seeing first hand of what is going on, and that it really seems that there is no way but to seek protection from that kind of behavior, I am forced to resolve this with the proper authorities on Wikipedia. There is no point in editing Wikipedia if this kind of continuous and targeted, disruptive and manipulative behavior is to be allowed. -- Tuvixer ( talk) 18:23, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
@ PortalTwo: What somebody finds funny is completely irrelevant to me. I have planned to do it for a long time, considering that nobody has done it for ages. It's quite relaxing compared to complicated historical topics. You can thank me later. All edits are there, and I stand by most of them. Rather than going merry WP:HOUND (I remember saying the same to another editor who reminds me of you, just recently), you can improve various related articles and what not. cheers, Sadkσ (talk is cheap) 00:45, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

Why is it OK for other users to remove sourced content without proper talk and not for me to restore the removed content even when I solve the problems that they stated? Nbanic ( talk) 20:27, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

Reverted, warned, protected. Giant Snowman 17:50, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
Hi, today one of my earlier sourced content contributions on the article Socialist Republic of Croatia was reverted by user Tuvixer [6]. In the description of the reversion it is stated that references like that need to have pages. I have the page numbers of course and I checked on Google Books whether they are publicly verifiable - they are. I am now going to put this content back with better the same references reinforced with the page numbers since this was the only requirement stated in the reversion description. I am saying this in advance because it seems to me that some of user Tuvixer's recent behavior in directed at denigrating every thing that I do including stuff as simple as grammar edits with no change of content meaning. So in short - should any accusation fall again, I am editing simply in accordance with the complaint that the references that were there earlier need to have pages - I put the page numbers now and they are verifiable. It seems to me that this should not be a problem. Nbanic ( talk) 17:59, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
Hi, user Nbanic has yet again reverted my edit without any consensus. User Nbanic reverted material back without gaining consensus in a Yugoslavia-related article. It was not a grammatical and spelling correction but an edit in the lead of the article. I have started a discussion on the article talk page and explained in detail why I have removed such content. Also I was going to propose the removal of everything "commonly called" as you have pointed out correctly that "It should be enough to use "Socialist Republic of Croatia" in the introduction". Unfortunately user Nbanic had reverted me again, in record time, without a consensus. It is impossible to edit Wikipedia when user Nbanic is involved. -- Tuvixer ( talk) 20:13, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for your review of all this. So far I have made good-faith attempts to respond to all the specific requests regarding the edit. Every time, it's deleted wholesale without meaningful engagement; no one will be specific. I am trying; how long should I wait for people to reply before assuming consent is achieved and I can restore the edit? Policies don't seem to say. The guy who reverted me three times and complained about my personal politics (and then complained I'd done three reverts when I hadn't) has already served a lengthy ban from US politics articles, then got reinstated when the person hearing the appeals said they couldn't be bothered to read through what he's done. I just feel like trying to do a good-faith helpful edit giving useful context on an important thinker's most famous work, in the article about him, is the victim of people trying to let his critics dominate the discussion. Thank you for helping. CraigBurley ( talk) 16:43, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
A few days ago, you blocked both User:WildlyAccurate and User:Drevolt for edit warring, mostly at University of Chicago (although Drevolt has been edit warring at other articles, too). The blocks on both editors expired recently and they've gone right back to edit warring. A longer block is probably warranted for both editors. Thanks! ElKevbo ( talk) 17:45, 17 May 2020 (UTC)

Hello. I've never been a technical expert, but the executive summary goes: what I was led to believe at the time the alternative version was being constructed and trialled was that, while sighted users see and understand the squad as one list laid out in two columns, screen readers follow the html and the users "see" two tables. The missing nationality column header didn't help, but that could've been fixed anytime. You could try asking Thumperward, who was involved with the alternative version and is technically competent.
As to whether it's a significant problem, it'd be sensible to get someone who actually uses a screen reader in real life to look at the old and new versions and get their opinion. Perhaps ask someone like Graham87, who edits using a screen reader?
While I'm here: not sure what the point of the sorting is in the new two-column version, given it works within one column at a time. E.g. if you want to use the sort facility to see how many English players Man Utd have in their squad, and click the sort button on the Nat column in the LH half, it just sorts the column in the LH half. So you see how many English players they have with squad numbers <21 or whatever, but the RH half is a different table and doesn't get included.
Also, the name column sorts by first name rather than surname, which is nothing to do with accessibility but doesn't seem entirely sensible.
Sorry I can't be more helpful. And I'm only here in short and unpredictable bursts at the moment, so don't expect speedy replies. cheers, Struway2 ( talk) 10:26, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

I see that the results of the 2020 Kiribati parliamentary election have not been added yet -- is the article out-of-date, or are the full results just not yet counted? Thanks. -- 1990'sguy ( talk) 16:04, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
Update: Based on the Kiribati Moa source, I've been able to update the French article to indicate the party of each elected MP and of each defeated incumbent, and the total of seats per party. If Kiribati Moa's claims are correct, they have 24 seats - an absolute majority! And Tobwaan Kiribati have only 12! The "aki oki" parts of the list on Facebook seem to mix defeated incumbents and re-elected incumbents, so you can't make sense of the numbers unless you have a list of the elected MPs that you can apply those political labels to.

Hi {u|Number 57}}, I've recently noticed that you have reverted a whole slew of edits by user Hope Nakapite (all in Zambia-related articles), and you have even deleted sections of the revision log on those pages. I'm not aware of what the problem was with those edits, but most other work I've seen from that user seems legit to me. May I ask why you took such drastic measures? werewolf ( talk) 16:11, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
Why did you remove the arrows there are mutlipble pages have arrows on the first election on the election tables can we discuss it
I don't want to be that guy but is it wrong or you decided it is wrong is there any written rule that states the first election on the election table must not have arrows list my proposal is keep the arrows but add new before them show people know in that election the party was new.
Hello, I see you rejected my draft edit of 2019–20 Stockport County F.C. season, reason given as - Stockport are not in a top professional league. Tranmere Rovers, Gateshead and Chester, while these are season pages are from 2015-16, These three teams played that season in the Conference National (now named National League), the same league Stockport played in for 2019-20. You say the league isn't fully professional, it has more fully professional teams competing in the league now than it did in 2015-16. Stockport also played in the Conference National (they level they are currently at) in 2011–12 and 2012–13 and these articles have been allowed.

Hi, as per the principle of least astonishment I believe an explanation for the sudden appearance of 2020 among the pages 2010, 2014, 2018, and that the type of the 2020 election (a recall election) is different from the others.
