2PP to two decimal places?
editWhere can one find Victorian state 2PPs to two decimal places? The 2006 election is the only one lacking a two-decimal 2PP. Timeshift (talk) 00:51, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
- Apart from calculating it, I'm not sure. I'll have a look in some of the libraries. Frickeg (talk) 00:58, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
- I found it in a VEC publication, thanks anyway. Timeshift (talk) 00:46, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
Need for improvement
editYesterday I was reading about people's long-running concerns with this page. From my point of view when I re-read the article, a lot of it was reflective on the 2002 election rather than talking about the 2006 election. I did 5 minutes worth of chops and moves and shuffles, and whilst it's no means anywhere near perfect, it's in my opinion a lot better than it was. So, what are the current/new major concerns for people regarding this article? The biggest one by far for me at the moment is the outdated results tables being used.

I've done some more. The remaining standout issues to me are in the infobox. The pre and post premier wording should be changed, but more of an issue is the listing of the Liberals/Nationals as a coalition. They would still form a government if they won a majority of seats, and the 2PP is still calculated as Labor v Lib/Nat, so I think the best listing is Liberal/National for out of coalition, Liberal/National coalition for in coalition. I've tried making the change but i'm not the most skilled when it comes to template codings. Comments? Timeshift (talk) 03:13, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
