Is it possible that in some way shape or form that Coles history can be included in Morialta history, as they are effectively the same district? Such as elected members before 2002 etc. Timeshift 05:46, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, this would probably need to be discussed in a larger theatre such as the wikiproject Australian Politics.ßlηguγΣη | Have your say!!! 05:49, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't quite figured out the ins and outs of embedding images yet... is it acceptable to embed - http://www.sa.alp.org.au/images/maps/full/morialta.gif - in to this wiki page? Timeshift 06:21, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure, but probably not. It looks exactly like the AEC photo in the manual, and it may be copyright? If it does not contravene the copyright use, then yeah, else a link would be appropriate.ßlηguγΣη | Have your say!!! 06:34, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Moderately safe liberal seat?

With the electorate losing most of liberal-voting Magill and gaining the rest of labor-voting Paradise from Hartley, and considering the 12% swing, 2% more than the state average, do others believe this electorate still deserves to be classed as moderately safe liberal? I highly doubt Hall will be preselected for 2010 either. Timeshift 04:31, 11 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pretty sure it's been updated because Labor has captured the seat.ßlηguγΣη | Have your say!!! - review me 04:15, 11 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I was referring to the wiki page for Morialta where it says "created in the 1998 electoral distribution as a moderately safe seat for the Liberal Party of Australia" should this be changed in peoples opinion? Timeshift 04:33, 11 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, in 1998 at creation it was a 6.5% buffer to the Liberal party. I took this from the ABC classification for 0-5% being marginal, 5-10% fairly safe, and 10+% being safe. I also sometimes use 20%+ to be very safe. I haven't been cautioned about whether this is appropriate, but I'll send it to the Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Australian politics to see what anybody thinks.ßlηguγΣη | Have your say!!! - review me 04:38, 11 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Updated. Suggestions welcome, the phrasing could have been slightly better. Timeshift 14:20, 13 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
