Pirate party[edit]

It seems all the election results are bad. I can't find a mention of the Pirate party for example. At the very least make a table of all the parties showing a % vote of the complete elections or something. Often they simply undemocratically mention "others". I can understand that in gallup polls, sure, but not in official election records. There's no "others" party.

Remind me, how many seats are held by the Pirate Party? Oh yeah, none. Every party that won a seat is either represented or in a constituency that the table is yet to be updated for. Blood Red Sandman (Talk) (Contribs) 16:29, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What About Northern Ireland?[edit]

I noticed that, while a few seats have been declared for NI, only one (Belfast East) is represented in the table. --Dialh (talk) 00:29, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

We're still busy updating the tables; due to the large size of the page, editing the page is somewhat time-consuming. Please feel free to help add new results to the table. Tempodivalse [talk] 00:33, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Broadcast report[edit]

Most of the information used in this article was gained from the live BBC1 broadcast of the election results on the night of 6–7 May 2010, which I and a number of other users on IRC watched. Δενδοδγε τ\c 22:18, 6 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comments by reviewer: Slightly unusual, but several of us in IRC agreed publishing and updating through the night was a good idea. We'll split the blame ;)

Votes?[edit]

For the votes column, is it the votes overall in the constituency or only the votes for the winning party?--Dialh (talk) 02:43, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

For the winner. --Mikemoral♪♫ 02:43, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Votes and share % are switched in some entries. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.185.43.103 (talk • contribs) 21:44, 30 July 2010

Crikey, yes! A sysop with a few minutes to spare should call by, check, and fix all this. --InfantGorilla (talk) 06:13, 31 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Category request[edit]

Please add Category:Somerset. Thanks, Rodw (talk) 12:08, 30 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • NOT DONE. This covers the entire UK, it would be meaningless and useless to make this change as every single district in the UK would, by your logic, also have to be added as a categorisation. --Brian McNeil / talk 12:29, 30 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
