regression plots on 2024 Belgium poll page
Hello, I just saw that you updated the plots on the "Opinion polling for the 2024 Belgian elections" page and was just wondering how you made them since I like the way they look a lot more than the ones I was making previously for the page and would like to continue using the same style next time there would be a need to update them. Please let me know if you're willing to share the code you use or give me some info about it, no worries if not. Timsmsmsm (talk) 12:14, 29 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Oh yeah, sorry about that, I forgot to link the code on those like I normally do, here's the link to the code I used. It's in R, and I like to use RStudio for this job. You just need to change the colours and amount of parties to match however many you're trying to do, swap out the DE.csv file for one that contains the polls for whatever election you want to generate a graph for, and change the dates for the specific election. I like to make copies of the ggplot file each pre-set-up for a different country/state. I'd be happy to send you a copy of those as well (if you'd like, I can give you the ones I already made for each of the Belgium graphs). I'll be honest, I felt a little bit bad replacing your files because it's clear you put a lot of work into them, but Gbuvn's opinion-polling-graph just looks better and more consistent with other opinion polling pages. Out of curiosity though, what did you use to make your versions of the graphs? GlowstoneUnknown (talk) 12:25, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Hello @GlowstoneUnknown, I would love to have your files for Belgium to update the French Wikipedia page. I tried to redo images myself with code from @Gbuvn but got errors. I am not comfortable using R. Cuspysan (talk) 15:15, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Alright, I'll prepare those files now, is there a preferred way for me to send them to you? i.e. email, Mega.nz link, etc.? GlowstoneUnknown (talk) 04:20, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Hello, a mega link is good. Please mention me so that I can be notified. Thank you Cuspysan (talk) 08:34, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Cuspysan Here's the link, I also supplied the CSV files I used, feel free to practice with the R files, and I can't recommend RStudio enough as an IDE for the programming language, it's been incredibly useful for me. MEGA GlowstoneUnknown (talk) 22:10, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

Update File:2024_Portuguese_Assembly_Of_The_Republic.svg
Hello, could you please update the file ? We already know who got the last 4 seats (votes from the Portuguese abroad). Democratic Alliance got a total of 80 seats (+1), the Socialist Party got 78 (+1), Chega got 50 (+2). The others remained the same. Total seats = 230. Many thanks.

Changes
Hi! I would like to propose some changes I'm confident are necessary to the 1) SDSS should be positioned to the right of, at least SDP if not also Our Croatia. They're not more any more left-wing than Rijeke pravde (if looking purely the "positions" on their Wiki pages that's the case, but SDSS is primarily a Serb minority party, who doesn't show their socdem ideology often & is pretty insignificant). But even disregarding that, the more important point is the norm that Minorities are always grouped together, in the centre of the spectrum, like also in 2020 parliamentary election diagram. 2) The Focus colour should be changed to the light blue/cyan that is actually 1 of their colours (see their page) and not the weird one used for them in the party color template as it's too similar to HDZ. The light blue is also used in the election map. I also wrote in the discussion page for the file, but here as well just in case you're more likely to see this. CroatiaElects (talk) 18:50, 19 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Ah thanks for the feedback. Sorry, slipped my mind to move SDSS to the centre, I was in a bit of a rush when I last edited it, also thanks for the heads-up about the colour, that looks a lot better. GlowstoneUnknown (talk) 23:02, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi! If you'd be so kind, I ask u to update the same diagram again, a few small changes happened since in the results table: Bosniaks together! article is created, now the party has its colour, also NPS is now presented separately from the Our Croatia coalition, so each have 2 MPs.

2024 Croatian parliamentary election
Hello. Just wanted to apologise that it looks like I keep undoing your changes to this article. On the seat changes, the whole series of articles (and almost all national election articles) uses +/– rather than the icons.

Re the minority seats, the total votes can't be calculated yet as the party identification of all the candidates (i.e. Franjo Horvat and Ivan Komak) isn't clear. Happy for the vote figures to be readded when it is clarified. Cheers, Number   5  7  19:31, 20 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Thanks for letting me know, I wasn't aware the candidates that weren't listed as being party members weren't Independents.
 * Re the +/-, I knew that the Croatian election pages have all been using it up till this point, but wasn't aware that it was the de facto standard for national parliament elections, I've mostly been working on subnational/regional/etc. election pages lately and my go-to for them is usually the //.
 * Don't worry about the undoing changes lol, it's fine as you've had good reason every time, I appreciate your fact-checking me and fixing the mistakes I've made, it's just unfortunate that I made said mistakes in the first place. GlowstoneUnknown (talk) 00:26, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Sorry, and I've just realised that totalling the minority seats' vote totals is meaningless, as Serb voters can cast three votes, so the percentages of the minority vote totals (comparing the Serb parties with the non-Serb ones) would be nonsense numbers. I think it's best to leave the party vote totals blank and just have the seats listed, as was done for the 2016 election article, or to remove them again and have a row with 8 seats (as done for all the other election articles), with 'National minorities' linked to the section below where their vote figures are (as I've just done for the 2015 article). Cheers, Number   5  7  01:33, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Ah right, that's annoying, well yeah maybe best to just leave the total votes and leave out the party votes GlowstoneUnknown (talk) 01:35, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

Factions of the Liberal Party
Hi, I noticed that on the page Centre Right (Liberal Party of Australia) you changed "three major factions" to "four major factions" (despite the next sentence saying "It holds the middle position between the three factions"). I was just wondering who the fourth faction are???

Thanks Viatori (talk) 13:04, 17 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Oops, forgot to fix that, since the 2022 federal election, a new "Centrist" faction emerged (to my knowledge, they aren't extremely organised, but that's par for the course in terms of LPA factions) from dissidents leaving the Moderate and Centre-right factions. I'll fix the mistake I made on that page though, thanks for bringing it to my attention. – GlowstoneUnknown   (Talk)  13:15, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

Diffusing your cats
Hi GlowstoneUnknown, regarding your French election pages, they should not be in high-level categories. See WP:DIFFUSE. Instead, Category:Results of the 2024 French legislative election by constituency itself is part of Category:2024 French legislative election, which in turn is a member of a number of categories and so on.
