Hey, thanks for your edits on Japanese elections and thanking me! I wanted to say that the cross symbol which I applied to Ohira (†) is used on other articles to indicate a dead person running in an election, such as on the 2000 United States Senate election in Missouri, which is probably the most famous example of this. It's nothing major, just wanted to say my logic. River10000 ( talk) 15:21, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi
Do you have an opinion? Panam2014 ( talk) 11:34, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
Indeed, yes, lots of players, as you correctly say have left. The only help, which I honestly believe is the best guide I can give to you, that should suffice to answer any future enquirer, (if this question of anything's merit is ever put to you), is there are lots of Kings and Queens; actors and actresses; ploughmen and clerics; lots of everyone and everything, in fact, (teas and cars); some enjoy life and obscurity; some fame, some disgrace. For whatever reason they're remembered; because they are, they direct the general reader of dictioneries to further knowledge. There are many football teams; why mention Gorlston ? Rather than delete the whole Gorlston article, which could so easily be done, as an agreed response to the question, as there are so many teams, education and deference to people's efforts over the years, instead, gives these subjects the priority over applying the principle of remaininig mute upon everything. Preferencing dumbness shouldn't extinguish differences of opinion, (in my own), though; people should still express it in their behaviours. Better to let the facts, as here where they are known, decide. Thanks. Heath St John ( talk) 19:42, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I would like to clarify that the "official election results" on the map of Thailand will be the number of MPs in each constituency. On the right side will be the number of MPs the list of parties that have them. "Most voted-for party" is the number of names of the party that received the most votes in each constituency. In the calculation, will use nationwide constituency in the calculation. อย่ามาตบะ ( talk) 03:07, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
Hey there! This is to let you know that phase I of the 2024 requests for adminship (RfA) review is now no longer accepting new proposals. Lots of proposals remain open for discussion, and the current round of review looks to be on a good track towards making significant progress towards improving RfA's structure and environment. I'd like to give my heartfelt thanks to everyone who has given us their idea for change to make RfA better, and the same to everyone who has given the necessary feedback to improve those ideas. The following proposals remain open for discussion:
To read proposals that were closed as unsuccessful, please see Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I/Closed proposals. You are cordially invited once again to participate in the open discussions; when phase I ends, phase II will review the outcomes of trial proposals and refine the implementation details of other proposals. Another notification will be sent out when this phase begins, likely with the first successful close of a major proposal. Happy editing! theleekycauldron ( talk • she/her), via:

For Template:Botswana elections the European advisory council elections are marked as general elections. However, European Advisory Council elections do not fall under the definition of general election in the sense of electing representatives to a legislative body like a parliament or congress. Theyre more like local elections or council elections, where members were chosen to represent specific interests or communities within the territory. There isnt an exact definition for the European advisory council elections so it would probably be best to give them their own section. 48JCL 22:12, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

I would like to note that the articles you have redacted in the last couple of months regarding parlamentary elections have mostly become dificult to read and use as a source thanks to the lack of information you have caused, though I agree that it is important to simplify information (specially for readers that might not read the whole article) I do believe that Wikipedia should be preserved and considered as a place to find specific data about elections, since it is hard to come across tangible information. I request that you stop deleting sources and data that might be important such as seats and the "previous and next" bar on top of the information box as an important and good editor you are. 2806:108E:22:679E:85CA:EBC3:6A85:8483 ( talk) 20:44, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
I've just changed the infobox to the legislative one to show the difference between constituency and proportional seats. What do you think? ValenciaThunderbolt ( talk) 12:15, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
I have no intention of starting an edit war, I just wanted to comment on the word choice when referring to the members chosen by the king versus voters. The term konungskjörnir þingmenn (lit. royally elected parliamentarians) are those who the king chose and kjördæmakjörnir þingmenn (lit. constituency elected members) are of course those the voters chose. In your reversion of my edit, you commented that the word usage "made no sense in English". I would argue that it makes even more sense in English than Icelandic as the verb to elect does not just strictly mean to pick a person for a position or office but also simply to choose or make a decision, just as I have elected to write this comment. Now, as to whether we follow the most common way to express something in English or allow for more local nuance is a matter of choice or taste. The term prime minister is a perfectly acceptable and ordinary term in the English language yet when it comes to Ireland, nothing but Taoiseach will do.

Hi Number 57. I noticed that you deleted my referring to an Israeli Regional Council as a "county". Many countries, including USA and UK use the concept of "county" and not "regional council". I referenced the word "county" in parenthesis for those who might need a local reference for the concept of "regional council". The two are not exactly the same, as I am well aware of, but for the casual reader, it would explain a lot. Yitzchakm2 ( talk) 01:05, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

Sorry for the accidental revert at {{ South African elections}}.
Unrelated to that, I have a question about this issue that I noticed. 1990 Serbian general election is the example article. This article has two modules inside Infobox election. The turnout in the first module is centred (as it is supposed to), however, by default the turnout in the second module is not centred? Take a look for yourself. Instead of adding {{ center}} around it, is it possible to fix this issue in the code? This can also be noticed in the HTML code as style:text-align:center is missing for this turnout.

I am cluless about this revert where you said "This creates a mess of inconsistent reference styles". But in reality this isn’t correct. The previous reference style don't give us idea about the source because it just shows the whole source information in the first and then use only "Nair [P]" for the next sources. The style I used is common in Wikipedia and everytime you click in any source it shows you the source at the bottom in the Bibliography section. And even if this style creates inconsistency that isn’t even a issue or threat. Mehedi Abedin 10:06, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

The purpose of an infobox is to summarize, but not supplant, the key facts that appear in an article). Lots of things are commonly done that shouldn't be, but just haven't been fixed yet.

I saw that you're the creator of both Ryokufūkai (1947–1960) and Ryokufūkai (1964–65), and I was wondering if you still possess or have access to Political parties of Asia and the Pacific by Haruhiro Fukui. If so, do you think you could send me captures of pp. 480, 611 and 612 by email, if you don't mind?

For Template:Botswana elections the European advisory council elections are marked as general elections. However, European Advisory Council elections do not fall under the definition of general election in the sense of electing representatives to a legislative body like a parliament or congress. Theyre more like local elections or council elections, where members were chosen to represent specific interests or communities within the territory. There isnt an exact definition for the European advisory council elections so it would probably be best to give them their own section. 48JCL 22:12, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

I would like to note that the articles you have redacted in the last couple of months regarding parlamentary elections have mostly become dificult to read and use as a source thanks to the lack of information you have caused, though I agree that it is important to simplify information (specially for readers that might not read the whole article) I do believe that Wikipedia should be preserved and considered as a place to find specific data about elections, since it is hard to come across tangible information. I request that you stop deleting sources and data that might be important such as seats and the "previous and next" bar on top of the information box as an important and good editor you are. 2806:108E:22:679E:85CA:EBC3:6A85:8483 ( talk) 20:44, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

I have no intention of starting an edit war, I just wanted to comment on the word choice when referring to the members chosen by the king versus voters. The term konungskjörnir þingmenn (lit. royally elected parliamentarians) are those who the king chose and kjördæmakjörnir þingmenn (lit. constituency elected members) are of course those the voters chose. In your reversion of my edit, you commented that the word usage "made no sense in English". I would argue that it makes even more sense in English than Icelandic as the verb to elect does not just strictly mean to pick a person for a position or office but also simply to choose or make a decision, just as I have elected to write this comment. Now, as to whether we follow the most common way to express something in English or allow for more local nuance is a matter of choice or taste. The term prime minister is a perfectly acceptable and ordinary term in the English language yet when it comes to Ireland, nothing but Taoiseach will do.

Hi Number 57. I noticed that you deleted my referring to an Israeli Regional Council as a "county". Many countries, including USA and UK use the concept of "county" and not "regional council". I referenced the word "county" in parenthesis for those who might need a local reference for the concept of "regional council". The two are not exactly the same, as I am well aware of, but for the casual reader, it would explain a lot. Yitzchakm2 ( talk) 01:05, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

Sorry for the accidental revert at {{ South African elections}}.
Unrelated to that, I have a question about this issue that I noticed. 1990 Serbian general election is the example article. This article has two modules inside Infobox election. The turnout in the first module is centred (as it is supposed to), however, by default the turnout in the second module is not centred? Take a look for yourself. Instead of adding {{ center}} around it, is it possible to fix this issue in the code? This can also be noticed in the HTML code as style:text-align:center is missing for this turnout.

I am cluless about this revert where you said "This creates a mess of inconsistent reference styles". But in reality this isn’t correct. The previous reference style don't give us idea about the source because it just shows the whole source information in the first and then use only "Nair [P]" for the next sources. The style I used is common in Wikipedia and everytime you click in any source it shows you the source at the bottom in the Bibliography section. And even if this style creates inconsistency that isn’t even a issue or threat. Mehedi Abedin 10:06, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

The purpose of an infobox is to summarize, but not supplant, the key facts that appear in an article). Lots of things are commonly done that shouldn't be, but just haven't been fixed yet. Best to fix ones with problems rather than create more with problems. Cheers, Number 5 7 21:23, 13 July 2024 (UTC)

But he confirmed that the color was added to be consistent with the situation, using the Senate of Canada as an example.
