Unreferenced quantitative election results

[edit]

Hello Gojetsgo55! I see that you've added quantitative election results to this article. Thing is, they're not at all referenced. Are you able to provide references for the numbers you've posted and get them hooked up in the article? If not, I think the material should be promptly removed since it is not readily verifiable. -- mikeblas (talk) 19:24, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The results I’ve posted can be found in the Wikipedia pages for the related constituencies, they are copy pasta from those pages that have results in the CANelec format.Gojetsgo55 (talk) 20:20, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
When copying material from one Wikipedia article to another, it's important to follow the rules at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia for attribution.
Meanwhile, in this edit you added a footnote that depends on a citation named "1999SoV". But there's no such citation in this article so the article shows a referencing error. Are you able to place the missing reference so that the error will be fixed? -- mikeblas (talk) 20:50, 8 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Gojetsgo55, are you able to provide the missing references and get the errors in this article fixed? -- mikeblas (talk) 21:26, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Mikeblas, That error may have been pre existing, I just attempted to fix it. Hopefully the issue is resolved.
I appreciate you bringing this to my attention! Gojetsgo55 (talk) 01:06, 30 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Yay! Thanks for the fix! -- mikeblas (talk) 03:03, 30 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
