Template talk:2019 United States elections

Chronological or alphabetical order
Should elections be listed in chronological or alphabetical order? Most elections are held in November, but some are not. The reader can't tell the dates from looking at the links. And it's not all that important in this template anyway. —GoldRingChip 13:35, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
 * cf 2017 United States elections: past templates have listed off-year special elections in chronological order (though it may be the case that 2017 was the exception). I don't have any strong feelings about this – with special elections the dates could be listed if they're to be kept in chronological order, but otherwise it might just make more sense to default to alphabetical.

 * But since this is just a navbox template, it seems excessive to have the dates or to put them in an order that's not obvious. Elsewhere, of course, they ought to be in chron order. —GoldRingChip 20:49, 28 February 2019 (UTC)

State postal abbreviations
Per MOS:POSTABBR, two-letter state abbreviations shouldn't normally be used. Tight space in a table is an exception, but that doesn't seem to apply to the mayor and city sections of this navbox. Not all English Wikipedia users are familiar with U.S. state abbreviations. Any problem with expanding the state names? Are we tied to displaying them this way because the related templates do it? —ADavidB 01:34, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Without any objection here or, as far as I know, to my addition of the abbr template on the related articles, I'm making the same edits to this article. A popup will expand the first-occurrence abbreviations to their full state names, a least disruptive edit that (minimally) meets the MOS guidance. —ADavidB 20:27, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
