Talk:Next Czech parliamentary election

Pirate / Mayors Split

I just added some text regarding the fact the Pirates and Mayors seem to have essentially split and will not run again at the next election in the alliance, should the infobox therefore be updated to reflect this split by having the Pirates and Mayors separate?

– The term 'parliamentary' is a more precise, comprehensive and clearer description compared to 'legislative', and is more widely used in sources. This change would enhance the clarity and accuracy of the articles' titles. Nagsb (talk) 07:59, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

You might have a point about recent usage in sources - looking through English sources on the 2021 article, "parliamentary" and "general" seem more common than "legislative". I disagree with "more precise and clearer" though; the Czech parliament is bicameral, and only the lower house is elected in these elections. The "precise" title would be "X Czech Chamber of Deputies election" from 1996-present and "X Czech National Council election" for 1968-92. Relatedly, I could only support "parliamentary" for the ones from 1996 on, as the elections from 1992 and before were to the Czech National Council as part of the Czechoslovak federal state. I suppose an advantage of "legislative election" is that it can apply to all of the above, though that's also a bit misleading.

I could probably support "X Czech parliamentary election" for 1996-present, on account of WP:COMMONNAME, and "X Czech National Council election" for 1968-92. – filelakeshoe (t / c) 🐱 09:46, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

Agreed, I corrected the proposal. --Nagsb (talk) 10:11, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

• Support all I had also been thinking about suggesting such a move. "parliamentary" is a more widely understood term to use than "legislative". Number 57 12:37, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
• oppose Parliament of the Czech Republic seems to refer to both houses—blindlynx 14:03, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

  @Blindlynx but legislature of the Czech Republic refers to both houses as well. If you what to be very precise then Chamber of Deputies election is better. But 'parliamentary' is much more widely used. Nagsb (talk) 14:40, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

  I don't really care what it ends up being but it should be consistent with other articles namely Parliament of the Czech Republic—blindlynx 14:55, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

• Support, clearer and better reflects the reality. Yes, CR is bicameral, but the other house is a directly-elected Senate so the name here is not ambiguous. (Indeed, the Senators could also be described as legislators). Jdcooper (talk) 00:15, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
