Not done. It's already there. In any case, that's handled through Wikidata; click the "edit" link at the bottom of the list and add it from there. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 22:12, 24 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Results

Remember to add in the second (?) paragraph where it talks about the worst placings, that Australia also got its equal worst place (8th). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wearethesuperheroes (talk • contribs) 20:11, 24 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Australia was 8th in 2015 and 2019, however,Bella had 64 points, and Jordan had 121 points, therefore Australia did not reach their worst result Wikiuserbam (talk) 18:09, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The number of votes calculated in the Online voting section is not correct

The number of votes is calculated by dividing the points by the total number of points, and multiplying by the total number of votes. However, this is assuming that every vote goes to one country. This is not the case; you must select 3-5 countries when voting. So even if everyone voted for you, you would still only get 20%-33% of the vote. Because we don't know for how many countries people voted on average, we cannot know for sure how many votes a country got. So I suggest adding two columns, one for the minimum amount of votes they could have gotten, and one for the maximum. JochemvanHees (talk) 09:40, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's not Wikipedia's place to calculate the number of votes each country received (or by extension the minimum or maximum), as that would be original research. We have to get that information from reliable sources, and all sources assume that the total number of votes given by the EBU is not the number of "ballots", and counts one person voting for three countries as three separate votes for example. Saying that the EBU's number of votes counts a vote for three countries as one single vote is not backed up by any source. dummelaksen (talk • contribs) 11:21, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
