Should articles on candidates be included in this category?

This issue comes up since the future elections template automatically includes articles in this category. To comment please visit Template talk:Future election -MrFizyx 20:19, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There is now a template for future candidates (Template:Future election candidate) which puts those articles into the category "Future election candidates", which is a subcategory of "Future elections" (this category).

I think that's a fine way to keep candidates and elections from being mixed together (which would happen if the "Future elections" template were put directly on candidate article pages) while still providing access to those interested. John Broughton 15:40, 21 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

alpha sort

how come the tag that brings up the box saying "this article contains information about a future election" works the way it does? I added one to the next Ukraine election page by typing [curly bracket]future election|Ukraine [close brackets]. And it filed it under U. All good. But when I do similar for Australia, it says This Australia contains information about a future election which is actually a pretty cute message, but not particularly useful. Help?
