Guam GOP primary returns
If you don't me asking, what's your source? I don't doubt your adds, I just want to read the source myself. pbp 15:09, 12 March 2016 (UTC)
- @Purplebackpack89: Hi, the source is here: http://edition.cnn.com/2016/03/12/politics/clinton-cruz-northern-marianas-guam-caucuses/. "... six delegates were elected, but only one of them, Guam Gov. Eddie Calvo, has publicly endorsed a presidential candidate -- Ted Cruz, according to party Executive Director Juan Carlos Benitez." That works out as 5 uncommitted elected delegates + 1 elected Cruz delegate + 3 uncommitted RNC members. None of them are technically bound, though. I'll add the cite to the primaries article. —Nizolan (talk) 15:50, 12 March 2016 (UTC)
Gidokjayudang (Christian Liberal Party) in South korea
[1]: Gidokjayudang in 2010s is surely different from Gidokjayudang in 1940s. Thanks. --Idh0854 (talk) 19:06, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Idh0854: Yes, hence "compare". —Nizolan (talk) 20:26, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Idh0854: To be less flippant, semantic components are usually separated by a space in the Romanization of long titles, hence Tonghap Minjudang and not Tonghapminjudang, etc. There's no reason to think the two parties are "surely" different in their Romanization (other than that the 40s one was Gidokkyo and not Gidok), so we follow the precedent unless there's some convincing reason otherwise. Thanks. —Nizolan (talk) 20:39, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
- I asked National Election Commission in South Korea (NEC) that the spacing of party name is available. When asked, NEC said, "Of course, it is possible". I mean, most political parties in South Korea aren't spaces between the written words of party name under the influence of the Hanja, like People's Party (국민의당, not 국민의_당). So I think that don't need to write leaving space between the words, unless it is really necessary. Thanks. --Idh0854 (talk) 03:13, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Idh0854: I don't understand your point, sorry. Like I said, adding spaces to separate the components of compound Korean terms is common in Romanization: see the note on p. 6 here, for example. This helps readability and English-speakers' comprehension. Wikipedia follows usage in common English sources, not official usage or usage in other languages. I believe this has been explained to you before. Indeed, the NEC's comment would appear to suggest that the official usage is agnostic on this issue anyway. —Nizolan (talk) 03:40, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

Defaultsort
Thanks for catching this. I looked at the link you sent. Yes, it does appear that it should sort as Grunwald, Bela per the MOS. I have made the change. Thanks--FeanorStar7 23:57, 9 April 2016 (UTC)

About your edit on National Assembly (South Korea)
I didn't necessarily find a reason to change to another parliament map when the circular arrangements fits more with the other nation's Parliament Map design. The map was updated, and it confused me. Please explain. HanSangYoonUSA [ Discussion ] [ History ] 02:29, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- @HanSangYoon: Sorry, that's my mistake. I didn't look carefully and thought it hadn't been updated—you were still using the "19th Assembly of the ROK.svg" file, and it was still displaying as the old version on my computer. The file should be uploaded as a new "20th Assembly of the ROK.svg" file so that the previous one can continue to be used for the 2012–16 Assembly. I temporarily changed it back to your version. (I personally prefer the new one since it conveys more information, but we can discuss that if desired.) —Nizolan (talk) 02:34, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- Ah, sure. Thanks for the understanding in advance; I'd like to hear of what you like about your preferred map as a response.
HSYUSA [ Discussion ] [ History ] 02:29, 14 April 2016 (UTC)- @HanSangYoon: It's not a big deal, but the small reason I prefer the other one is that in cases where you have several parties with the same colour, it's easier to distinguish that they're separate parties when you have the numbered arc chart above, which can be annotated. It's not a problem now, but at the end of this outgoing Assembly the Christian Liberal Party and Minjoo Party had essentially the same colour as the Minjoo Party of Korea and the Justice Party respectively. I wasn't sure how to update the diagram because of that. I agree the circle version is more popular and consistency is worthwhile as well; there are a few exceptions though (e.g. Parliament of Australia). —Nizolan (talk) 02:49, 14 April 2016 (UTC)

Questions and all
Template:South Korean legislative election, 2016 I'm pretty sure you know more about it than I do. But I was confused as to how did independents get 11 seats and no percentage. --QEDK (T ☕ C) 15:18, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
- @QEDK: I can see the confusion, but there's a parallel voting system, so people vote once for a constituency representative and once for a party list ("Block vote" on the template). The vote percentage is for party lists; the constituencies are, well, the constituencies. Since independents aren't a party they don't have a list. Constituency vote totals haven't been released yet, hence the blank column. —Nizolan (talk) 15:20, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
