Percentage Changes[edit]

Hi all,

Given that one councillor is up for election each year, when inputting the percentage changes from previous, do we go by the previous election or when that candidate (or equivalent) last stood for that seat on the council? Eurugby54 (talk) 10:05, 9 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Generally I always go for change from the previous election (so 2019 here), but I'm not entirely sure if that's correct. I'm don't know if there's been some sort of established consensus across UK Local elections on Wikipedia, as it would be best to standardise it one way or another. Might be worth bringing up on the UK Politics Wikiproject page? --BryceIII (talk) 11:11, 9 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
