Yugoslavia de facto & de jure
Under Yugoslavia it says that women's suffrage was enacted de jure in 1945, but de facto only in 1990. I ask: where is the source of this? The struggle for universal suffrage was one of the main ideological focus points of the communist partisans and even the KPJ way before that, and I am unable to find a source that would disprove the claim that women suffrage was not granted both de facto & de jure in 1945.

 * Thank you for noticing that: It should not have been there to begin with and was probably inserted by someone non-neutral anti communist or something like that. I have deleted it. --Aciram (talk) 23:58, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

School Boards, UK
There was a female franchise for various of the School Boards in the UK - Elizabeth Garrett Anderson sat on the London School Board.

And from WA Holdsworth 'The Handy Book of Parish Law' 1891, p 59, chapter on Sextons - women could be appointed sextons, and where parishioners had the right of appointment (elsewhere the incumbent, or the church-wardens did so) women could vote. Jackiespeel (talk) 18:55, 8 February 2023 (UTC)

Now taken for granted?
The lead implies that women had to fight for this right, but I think it should be made clear from the very first sentence that from the inception of democracy until relatively recently, women did not have this right. This is important as people looking up this article, increasingly, will not have lived in, or heard about, a time when women’s suffrage was not the norm. 92.4.165.90 (talk) 07:59, 19 March 2023 (UTC)
