2024 United Kingdom general election infobox saga
Hi :)

I saw you reverted my edit on changing the infobox on the page 2024 United Kingdom general election with the reason "infobox: reverted change from TILE to TIE. to reiterate what the comment at the top says: "here is a consensus to use this infobox style, not Template:Infobox election... do NOT change the infobox without consulting the talk page to change the consensus." no such consultation has occured." I am no one to decide whether we use TILE to TIE. But I have to admit, I found your reasoning somewhat disrespectful. I have multiple times asked for arguments on the talk page for why we use TIE, and there's been a large lack of replies, so it's not true that I'm just chaging the infobox "without consulting". I know there is no consensus on using TILE, so I'm not going to go into any edit war before knowing whether a consensus for it can be reached. The only reason I added it, was because the previous infobox had been deleted, and I believed that an infobox was necessary, so I just added my own preferred version.

I inivite you to join the discussion on the talk page,Talk:2024_United_Kingdom_general_election so we can gather a better shared consensus on how to use the infobox, and prevent these potential editing wars.

Have a nice day :) @Thomediter Thomediter (talk) 00:33, 13 June 2024 (UTC)


 * @Thomediter Hi there,
 * Apologies if the edit summary came across as curt, I was just trying to get across the rationale as succinctly as possible. I'm well aware of the extensive discussions around the infobox, particularly on whether to put the seats at dissolution or at GE2019 (for reference, I'd favour seats at GE2019), my issue with switching TILE to TIE (even indirectly) was that there hasn't been a discussion specifically on that since late May that I can find, let alone one that found a consensus in favour of TIE - so, at least as far as I can tell, the consensus to use TILE from Talk:2024 United Kingdom general election still stands.
 * Again, sorry if the reversion came across as snippy, and I hope this helps clarify.

 * That's fair, it's all good. It was a small mess yesterday, with the infobox being removed and all, so maybe things just went through a bit too quick, by me too.
