Violation of the principle of neutrality
I just undo a change, perhaps well meaning (unless it is machiavellian?), made by an anonymous user. He has created a box results for the 2015 elections in which the NDP Party is ranked first in the top of the list, followed by the Bloc Québécois and the Liberal Party, etc. This classification, conducted three months BEFORE the October 2015 elections, violates the principle of Neutral Point of View.

Indeed, this preference in listing could subconsciously influence the electorate in suggesting that future results will be achieved in that order.

Optimally, this box should be created AFTER the elections and should classify Parties according to their respective performances. Or possibly, if we want to create it BEFORE the elections, Parties should be listed in alphabetical order.

 * Hello, welcome to Wikipedia. In preparation for the next election, we've been adding the candidates ahead of time to save work. It is the policy to rank the candidates based on the order of finish in the last election. Please take a look at how things are done on similar pages before making huge changes to a particular article. Thanks! -- Earl Andrew - talk 14:27, 22 July 2015 (UTC)

Answer
Well this policy is unacceptable, contrary to the principle of neutrality and should be abandoned.

PS I am a member of the French Wikipedia since 2012 but had not participated in the English Wikipedia until now.
