Limited coverage

I haven't been able to cover earlier by and local elections because there is insufficient information on them. Someone with better access to this topic should add articles or links on much earlier minor elections. - Two hundred percent 08:44, 2 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Peninsular states

I think we should add state elections held in peninsular. Since it seems that all peninsular states always have their elections simultaneously, maybe we need not list each states in the template. Instead create something like: Peninsular states: 1959 | 1964 | 1969 | and so on |. Link: [1]. kawaputra^torque 07:38, 14 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds fine to me. Feel free to add them. пﮟოьεԻ 5 7 09:05, 14 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

OK. One thing that tho', do you think we should have separate articles for the parliament elections and state elections? In particular, peninsular state elections. Coz in the Malaysian general election, 2004 article seems to include the state elections held the same time. Keeping in mind the other nav template: {{Malaysian general elections}}. kawaputra^torque 06:59, 15 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, there should be separate articles. The section in the general election article is tiny, but if it were expanded to actually cover the state elections and results in detail, then it would be too large. пﮟოьεԻ 5 7 10:21, 15 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
