Talk:2013 Zimbabwean general election

Parliamentary election

New section for this - with its infobox or separate page? Babakathy (talk) 05:47, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

I don't think we need either - the main decision at stake here is the Presidency. Certainly not a separate article. Number 57 12:01, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

House of Assembly figure

This figure for the in the infobox showing the composition of the House of Assembly (right) is impossible for colour blind readers to decipher. Can someone please have a go at editing this in line with the principles at Commons:Commons:Creating accessible illustrations please. -- Mattinbgn (talk) 23:27, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

Are you saying different colors should be used? These are the colors for the respective parties, so it seems intuitive to use them. Everyking (talk) 00:11, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Yes, that is what I am saying. Around 8% of males of European descent (including myself!) will not be able to decipher that illustration. I cannot distinguish between the two colours in this illustration at all. See WP:COLOR for advice as well. -- Mattinbgn (talk) 00:32, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Fixed! Thank you Commons:User:Nick.mon! -- Mattinbgn (talk) 10:02, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

As you said I have uploaded a new file. We can use the one you prefer, no problem. -- Nick.mon (talk) 18:25, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Back to being unreadable for color blind readers! Can someone please fix? -- Mattinbgn (talk) 01:27, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

Reserved seats for women?

I cite: "The new constitution of Zimbabwe adopted in May 2013 provides the following system of reserved seats for women: “for the life of the first two Parliaments after the effective date, additional sixty women members, six from each of the provinces into which Zimbabwe is divided, elected through a system of proportional representation based on the votes cast for candidates representing political parties in a general election for constituency members in the provinces” (Constitution, 2013, Part 4, Article 124). This new addition will increase the size of Zimbabwe’s parliament from 214 to 274 members." [1]--Bancki (talk) 10:34, 20 September 2013 (UTC)
