Electorate only candidates[edit]

Should candidates running in electorates but not opting to contest a party list be included in the "Party lists" pages? To my mind these pages should only include list candidates as that is what the title of the page describes as its purpose. Electorate only candidates are already listed on the pages we have for electorate candidate lists anyway so it seems we are doubling up on information needlessly. Does anyone else have any views for or against this? Kiwichris (talk) 05:41, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Schwede 66 06:15, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Same as previous elections. Ajf773 (talk) 07:58, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Greens – draft and final list[edit]

I suggest that it would be useful to also record the draft list positions for the Greens; some of the changes are of interest. The template doesn't allow us to do that. Any good ideas how we'd go about that? Schwede 66 19:50, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Don't see the need to publish the draft list. By all means include the reference. Ajf773 (talk) 10:52, 31 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
