It's a first reading, I haven't finished yet. Ajh1492 (talk) 23:52, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

I did some more updates, you might want to check to make sure I quoted the right percentages and sjem size in the infobox. Ajh1492 (talk) 23:52, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Are you comfortable with the semi-colon usage in two sentences in the Lede? Ajh1492 (talk) 00:11, 3 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Lede


 * Lede should contain summary info from Aftermath


 * Consider use of Template:Infobox election
 * Might want to look at the 1961 elections article to see what needs to go into the infobox


 * Background
 * significant political changes in the government (Władysław Gomułka's ascension to power) they were delayed until early 1957 - consider rewording to eliminate parentheses, it's a little clunky


 * Among various promises ... promised free elections - how about Among the various promises made by First Secretary Gomułka, during the Polish October peaceful revolution, to the restless Polish population was that of free elections.


 * secret police (Służba Bezpieczeństwa) - reword to secret police (Służba Bezpieczeństwa) - check article for consistent use of lang-pl template


 * candidates from the main communist party (Polish United Workers' Party - PZPR) and one of the lesser communist parties (United People's Party - ZSL).[6] - you've already defined PZPR and ZSL, you can use the acronyms in the rest of the article consistently.


 * Soviet intervention, in case of G loss were also repeated by Radio Free Europe, - what is a "G loss"


 * Election results


 * Its Senior marshal (Polish title for speaker) - is the parenthetical expression necessary, you provided the link just prior to it


 * Consider putting the results in a table and have the pie chart as a cell in the resultant table - would be consistent with Embedded_list


 * Check for correct number of spaces after punctuation


 * References
 * Remove redlink in first reference


 * Google books link is blank on first reference


 * Replace bad links on reference #5


 * Consider moving details on reference #6 from Further Reading (Paweł Machcewicz, Kampania wyborcza i wybory do Sejmu 20 stycznia 1957 roku)


 * I think I fixed most issues. Gbooks links are a bit unstable; the page is there but we cannot view it. It may work one day, again. Ref 5 was replaced, as it is dead and not archived. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; talk 22:16, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

What is your source for 456 and 457 (+1) in this? Front of National Unity needs improvement, but if it was PZPR, ZSL and SD, then the FJN gains should not include the "independents". --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; talk 00:43, 3 June 2011 (UTC)

The election articles on either side of 1957. Put in whatever number you have a reliable source for. Ajh1492 (talk) 14:33, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Sure, I am just doing that :) --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; talk 16:14, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
 * And done with various fixes and expansions to this and other commie elections articles, for now at least. I will try to get the 1989 one DYKed in a near future, I think :) --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; talk 20:29, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
