Christian Democratic Party

Why does the CDP warrant a dedicated column in the Legislative Assembly table? It should be listed with "Other candidates". WWGB (talk) 05:58, 7 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

They ran candidates in every seat in 2015—not this time obviously, and you have parties like Keep Sydney Open and Sustainable Australia with far more candidates than CDP at this election. I will merge them in to the Other column when I finish the Legislative Council section. --Canley (talk) 06:24, 7 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Thank you Canley. WWGB (talk) 10:08, 7 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, you're right, I've added the missing column. --Canley (talk) 01:43, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks much. I didn't feel competent enough to do it myself. 124.171.201.157 (talk) 05:11, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

SFFP

The SFFP only ran in just over a quarter of the seats, but won three of those. I would suggest giving them their own column to minimise the use of asterisks in the others column. It will make the table appear a bit neater. I'd also point out that the CDP used to have their own column in previous elections, even though they never managed to win a single lower house seat.--Mrodowicz (talk) 00:29, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It's really more about number of seats contested than number of seats won. The CDP got a column because they ran in every seat. I do not think a quarter of the seats is really even close to enough - the amount of white space and table-bloating would be enormous. Frickeg (talk) 06:57, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
